Romney a Lock - You Can Put it On the Board YESSSS!!

It might very well be "states rights" but it becomes a bit of a trap for Obama if so. For health care he is saying that states rights does not matter.

 

Because it has to be black and white, right?

 

Agriculture makes up 6.4% of Iowa's GDP.

Manufacturing makes up 20.8%.

And manufacturing is what's powering Iowa's economic recovery.

Instead of calling me "stupid", tell me how I'm wrong.

 

Hack, the Hoff has something he wants to tell you:

 

Believing multiple Faux distortions -- as well as their constant refusal to recognize vital facts which invalidate many of their positons.

 

Oh there is manufacturing work in Iowa...I won't deny that. Quite a bit of it isn't in the monotonous, widget factory. It is engineering-based and, often, with goods that are being exported. A lot of them are also smaller companies, with the owner on site. Not exactly the image of the groggy elephant that wastes money. These companies operate on tight budgets. They're almost counting on lower corporate taxes in the next few years.

Yet will the president will be to keep his coalitions together? One week it is college kids. Another week it is women and their free birth control. Whenever he decides to court the white middle class worker with only a HS degree, then he will make inroads.

Of course, Romney could say he is against the farm subsidies and seal his own fate.

Calling people who don't agree with you "stupid" did wonders for the Gore campaign.

 

You know, some things are so dumb as to not merit a thoughtful response. Truly. Which is why I asked the question in the first place. But, OK, for old time's sake.

How are you wrong?

Let's start with your baseline assumption: That the incumbent president is going to have a harder time somewhere the economy is doing better.

Please stop and think about that for a second.

Let's look at some other problems.

A comparison of this President, rhetorically, with William Jennings Bryan? Preposterous.

The assumption that Obama will run a "negative" campaign with a "negative" message? Not logical, for starters. He's the incumbent. But, hey, maybe you have some inside information the rest of us don't. Let's check it out. Campaign slogan? "Forward." Campaign opening speeches over the weekend? Upbeat and positive.

Azrael dealt with your fundamental misunderstanding of Iowa, so I'll just elucidate to say, Iowa and Ohio are different, yes, but not for any of the reasons you seem to have latched onto. The average Iowan is actually more liberal than the average Ohioan. But Iowa's demographics are considerably kinder to Romney.

Furthermore, statements like, "Obama won Iowa, but then they elected a Republican..." are laughable. Presidential elections and off-year elections are not the same thing.

All that said, your posts seem a strange cobbling together of phrases cribbed from various dispensers of right-wing talking points that are mostly ahistorical and dumb to begin with, and then approach full gobbledygook when you stitch them together.

 

Stoners! Sluts! Hippies!

We'll stop here.

He won't.

 

And people weren't stupid -- or not nearly as stupid -- in 2000. Fox News was in its infancy and full-scale distortion hadn't become so refined. After war cheerleading and an entire campaign based on what country was the candidate REALLY born in, the die has been recast.

 

Meanwhile, from a different election comes the question, dude, what the fuck is wrong with Mexican journalists?

I agree here. Birthers disgust me. I do wish all people were more curious or interested than a generation ago. On both sides.
