No other American presidential candidate has ever left the US to garner campaign contributions from foreign citizens. There is a reason for this, one Romney and his staff seem oblivious to and the mainstream media has ignored. Using foreign contributions in any American election is a felony. http://tinyurl.com/bnangn3 http://tinyurl.com/9brjwhz http://tinyurl.com/d5nlxno Arizona Senator John McCain accused a pro-Mitt Romney super PAC of accepting “foreign money” from Las Vegas casino mogul Sheldon Adelson, in an interview posted online Friday. “Obviously, maybe in a roundabout way, foreign money is coming into an American campaign,” Mr. McCain said. http://tinyurl.com/d43fqb5If the Democrats can nail Romney on this, the party is over for Mittens.

Many people know that he isn't a honest person and would never vote for him. Only party "loyals" and those who would like ABO (anyone but Obama) consider voting for him. that his ratings went up after the debate only means that the poll was rigged (i don't believe that people are so dumb and start supporting him after few hours...

Romney not only has $$$, but he has friends in high places. Romney's fellow CEO's , whose Greed from outsourcing our jobs to China and India, has actually been greatly responsible for our poor economy and lack of jobs. Romney is the " Godfather of Outsourcing and Greed " and its amazing that he has a chance to be our President !!!

I call it the Lemming effect. Every so often these little mammels who knows where decide to commit mass suicide by running off a cliff into the ocean. It is the same here in Louisiana which is a Red state when no one here should be voting for Romney. They are as poor as church mice but voting to cut the programs that they so desperately need. I ask them why they are voting Republican and they tell me to get rid of Obama Care. I ask what they don't like about it and they can't tell me. They are voting not really knowing the real issues. Once I was in a gun shop to purchase some gun oil for my rifles which I don't even use anymore but keep them up. It was right after Obama was elected and there was a mad rush on ammunition. I asked a fellow why he and everyone else was purchasing so much ammo? He told me that the first thing Obama was going to do is take all ammo of the market to stop gun sales. I really think that this is the work if professionals hired by Republicans to spread these lies using the internet. I just got a message from a Republican friend that the reason Obama won the last debate was because he had an ear piece and someone was giving him advice. There was even a picture of the ear piece. If these people can lie about things like that, how far will they go to lie to the public about critical issues? If they ever get in total power, will they control the press?

it is amazing that people believe most outrageous lies and then vote accordingly... While Romney blatantly cheats Americans Obama --who creates many programs for OUR money, and freely spends OUR money, and bails out even European banks for freshly printed money AND Americans have so called HIDDEN TAX meaning everything gets more expensive - talks better------but the talk is cheap. he has no problem taking away our constitutional rights. He talks about never using NDAA but his lawyers fight judges who say it's unconstitutional.... Ben Swann talks about it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7Qs4seCHtI&feature=g-all-lik |

Mitt Romney is one of the wealthiest self-made men in our country but has given more back to its citizens in terms of money, service and time than most men. And in 2011 Mitt Romney gave over $4 million to charity, almost 19% of his income.... Just for comparison purposes, Obama gave 1% and Joe Biden gave $300 or .0013%. He gave his entire inheritance from his father to charity. Bain Capital, starting with one small office supply store in Massachusetts , turned it into Staples; now over 2,000 stores employing 90,000 people. Bain Capital also worked to perform the same kinds of business miracles again and again, with companies like Domino's, Sealy, Brookstone, Weather Channel, Burger King, Warner Music Group, Dollarama, Highly intelligent. Graduated cum laude from both Harvard Law School and Harvard Business School ...and by the way, his academic records are NOT sealed. But, on the minus side, he never was a "Community Organizer", never took drugs or smoked pot, never got drunk, did not associate with communists or terrorists, nor did he attend a church whose pastor called for God to damn the US .
