This is from the Washington Post. Yep, Republicans even know Romney is a loser.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/national/in-iow...

One of the Republican appointees to the Electoral College abruptly resigned from her post Thursday after publicly questioning whether she would support the party’s presidential ticket when casting official votes after the November election.

Melinda Wadsley of Ames, Iowa, told The Associated Press that she could not in good conscience vote for party nominee Mitt Romney. Wadsley was among three electors who had told the AP for a story published Thursday that they were exploring alternatives should Romney win their states.

“I have always been a straight ticket Republican, and for the first time in my life I am an undecided voter, therefore, I need to resign my position as a Republican presidential elector,” Wadsley said in an email exchange.

Can't wait till Romney sweats, squirms and stutters his way through the debates. Noonan's right, he's going to bring back memories of Nixon.

You'd have to have a JOB for that!

And who the hell would hire you with your blatant inability to use English?

As an example, I'll just re-post what I said way back in #1278 in response to your following drivel in post #1215:

"Illiteracy appears to to be your strong suite let me help over estimated is two words I could go on but it would be pointless your grammar is horrific."

Did you ever figure out that:

1) The word "overesitmated" isn't two words - that it's ONE word you illiterate jackass?

http://www.thefreedictionary.com/overestimate

2) Or that it's strong SUIT ... not strong "suite" you illiterate jackass?

3) Or that your ENTIRE POST is one whole run-on sentence you illiterate jackass?

Well? Did you?

I'm still waiting for an answer here ... since April!

How much more time do you need?

I'd be REALLY embarrassed if I were you! Calling people illiterate when your post is riddled with mistakes? And then trying to call me out on a mistake that it turns out was correct ... because you have the IQ of afterbirth?

OUCH!

And since you never answered those questions there, I'll just KEEP POSTING IT to you ... over and over ... until you answer them you illiterate jackass.

Get the pattern?

Still struggling with basic capitalization, punctuation, and spelling?

Am I still a "monger" - "a dealer in a specific commodity" per the free online dictionary at: http://www.thefreedictionary.com/monger

Or did you mean "moniker"?

ROFLMFAO!

Or maybe you're so damn remedial ... you don't know what you meant.

Could that be it?

Your grasp of English gets worse and worse with each passing post!

You can't spell, can't capitalize, can't punctuate, can't conjugate and now we know you can't define the words you use ...

Are you a Republican by chance? I'll bet you are!

In fact, I'll bet you prove you're a Republican by not answering that.

See what happens when you try to be a wise ass and pick fights with people you loudmouth punk? You get humiliated ... by ME!

I'm gonna hit you with this over and OVER again you stupid POS - every single time you post on here.

Pathetic you

Allow me to call you out on your bogus list - item by item!

Let's see how many of these questions you run from ...

Ready?

- Conservative Repuke policies have consistently redistributed wealth from the middle class and the poor UP to the rich for YEARS now? Are you outraged about that? Yes or no?

- You mean the lying surrogates you can't name under the guy that a REPUBLICAN ad for McCain said was "the Messiah"? Yes or no?

- Obama's "incompetence" in cleaning up the repuke mess caused by policies mentioned in post 1428 comes from being prevented from cleaning up by the obstruction mentioned in posts 1402 and 1403. Can you refute them? Yes or no?

- You mean all the apologies that you and Romney can't specifically name for us? Those apologies? Can you list them for us so I can fact check them? Yes or no?

- Bowing is a sign of respect that you show someone in their one country you pathetic Islamophobe. Were you outraged when Dubya KISSED Muslim King Abdullah? Yes or no?

- Can you list some of the lies about any of the relationships you mentioned? Yes or no?

- The failed president's economic record? Can you explian how that pertains to both the stock market and private sector profits being UP since the last guy left office? Or the dozens of consecutive months of private sector job growth? Yes or no?

- Isn't the "16 Trillion" considerably less when you factor out: Obama's first year in office and TARP since he operated under Dubya's last fiscal budget; the 2 repuke wars that were kept off the budget books; the amount in tax cuts which was about 40% of the stimulus (demanded by republicans) in order for the stimulus to pass; and the cost of the unfunded Medicare Part D? Yes or no?

- Did you complain about the trillions of dollars in debt when repukes were busy doubling it under Dubya and your current leaders voted a combined 19 times to increase the debt limit by 4 trillion dollars? Yes or no?

- Seems there's lots of results right here: http://www.jackandjillpolitics.com/2010/10/pr...

Do you usually lie THAT badly? Yes or no?

- Solyndra was a Republican-run business, with a failure of a Republican CEO, that despite the backing of huge Republican donors and (of course) the "gubmint cheese" that repukes despise so much STILL wasn't enough to keep it from being run into the ground.

Since you want to use Solyndra as an excuse to kill clean energy initiatives then I'll use the Atlantic Empress, Nowruz Oil Field, Castillo de Bellver, the Odyssey, the M/T Haven, the Ixtoc 1, the Fergana Valley, the ABT Summer, the Amoco Cadiz, and the Deep Water Horizon incidents as an excuse to kill any more oil drilling. Is that a deal? Yes or no?

- Dubya was golfing when Katrina put roughly 80% of N.O. under water. He also told us to "Watch this drive!" when he should have been concerned about 911 having just happened. He spent at least 1,029 days - over one third of his presidency - on vacation while in office. Were you complaining then? Or did you re-elect him in 2004? Yes or no?

- You mean those "lies and distortions orchestrated by handlers" in Paul Ryan's convention speech? Yes or no?

- It's freakin' open MIC!!! Did you get it this time? Yes or no?

- Repukes attacked Romney yesterday too. Did EVERYONE suddenly become "liberal" just because Romney had another MAJOR campaign gaff? Or was what he tried to pull pretty inexcusable in general? Yes or no?

- Obama talked with Netanyahu in a call Tuesday night. See, the world doesn't revolve around Israel and Obama doesn't answer to your "Messiah" Netanyahu. Do you suddenly have a problem with aspects of American Exceptionalism now? Yes or no?

- Obama Apology to Islam? You mean the statement by the U.S. Embassy in Cairo? The one that didn't even go through the White House? Can you post a link to a quote of him where he apologized? Yes or no?

Blatant lies and Fox bullshit talking points won't help you here ...

Now start answering coward!

This is great. You have won me over and helped me see the light. I too should join you in the march forward to the cliff. There is no reason to worry about 5 trillion $ wasted. No reason to worry about the millions and millions unemployed. No reason to worry about our weakened position worldwide. No reason to worry about programs being shoved down our throats by members of Congress who would never qualify to hold even a first level management job in the real world outside the Beltway. No reason to worry about Obama's ties to Socialists and radicals such as yourself No reason to worry about Obama's near total lack of experience running anything prior to the start of his current tenure, the results of which are abundantly clear. No reason to worry about the next 5 trillion $++ he will saddle us with in his next term. No reason to worry about more government adventures into funding private industry. No reason to worry about his failure to contain Iran and radical Muslim extremists, no reason to worry about people like you - bullies attempting to crush all discussion with condescending tirades, no reason to worry about anything. Just follow you and Obama to the land of milk and honey.

One good thing does come from your chest beating and polarizing, demanding, and demeaning comments: It strengthens my resolve to vote Obama out of office. I officially cancel out your vote for Obama with mine for Ryan. Tough luck for you. Have a nice life and may you be the first to suffer from four more years of failure, both from Obama and your own disturbing inability to uncouple from your destructive behavior.

By the way, thank you for your use if the word Repuke. Yet another reason to view you with disdain Try to learn to calm your rage before you have a stroke.

Don't bother to respond. I won't waste another minute with your rants.

On Mitt's incendiary comments about the latest tragedy in the news.

I think it was a very serious mistake. And it was because we’re at the point of the campaign now where these impressions start to harden into concrete. People are evaluating now on a daily basis who has what it takes to be the next president in a challenging time. Who has the right temperament? Who has the right character? And he fell short on that.
— Steve Schmidt,
John McCain's 2008 Presidential Campaign Manager

People are watching the campaign closer now. Mitt is proving that he's not good under pressure. It's safe to say the Romney campaign is imploding. Of course Mitt is now blaming the media for his ongoing daily blunders. All of this begs the question, just who is advising this guy? Mitt would be wise in revamping his campaign with some new blood. Watch for that to happen. If he doesn't and at the rate he's going, we're looking at a landslide victory for the president.

What's the difference? Obama can't figure out how to protect us from his Muslim pals and he wants to give my money to the poor of the world. Either way, we're screwed. At least Romney understands that ever growing deficits will kill America. In Obamas case, that seems to be the PLAN.

Now that's funny...
A new theory floating out there is that Romney doesn't want the public to know that he took the bebefitsIRS offer of amnesty for tax cheats a few years ago. That may be why he doesn't want the voters to see his returns. He's hiding something. If he's not there is no reason for him not coming clean with the voters.
I agree with you and also When Bain capital out-shored jobs to China the co-founder was Mitt Romney who created the model of outsourcing jobs,tho he no longer runs Bain he is still reaping very high benefits financially.(read Amy Goodman-author of "Breaking the Sound Barrier," a New York Times best-seller.(Out of the Sept 2 Southern Illinoisan,Sunday edition.) So everyone expects Obama to right the unemployment problem right away when all these jobs were shipped overseas years ago with the help of Mitt Romney. So who cares about turning this country around or who wants to make his wallet thicker? Its sure not the Republican nominees.

5 Trillion $ wasted. Plays some role in perception about who should be in charge. I've seen Obama without his TelePrompTer aided pre canned speeches. Pathetic.[/QUOTE]

Given the state of the economy, Romney should be way out in front. He's not. Why is that? Could it be a message that's not resonating with the voters? Or could it be that he was the best of the lot when it came to options for the GOP? The entire GOP was weak and the GOP went with the least wackiest. The only normal Republicans were pushed aside early by Romney's negative attack ads.

Most of those speaking at the GOP convention barely mentioned their candidate by name. That was telling. The Republican speakers appeared to be trying to sell themselves rather than Romney. Even their Key note speaker spent most of his time talking about himself. His speech fell flat. If he was trying to sell himself as a good choice down the road, he did a poor job.

Like it or not, Romney is now being perceived as the GOP's Dukakis like candidate and not just by the Democrats, his own party is jumping on with harsh criticism. The only question left is how many Republicans will he take down with him? BTW, how much of the 16 trillion debt was from Republican administrations? Don't bother to look it up, I'll help you out. Two thirds.

This race is Romney's to lose, and he's doing a good job of it. The Koch brothers and Rove can't spend enough corporate money to save him.

Your teleprompter barb smacks of hypocrisy. How many speakers at the GOP convention used one? Everyone one of them, including Romney and Ryan. The only exception was Clint Eastwood, and we all saw that train wreck. Perhaps Clint should have used one, but instead he chose to make an azz out of himself with his rambling and disjointed comments. Or better yet, the GOP should have chosen a celebrity less effected by the onset of dementia.
