UNIVISION INTERVIEWER PINS DOWN OBAMA--BETTER THAN ANYONE YET
The question was on immigration reform campaign promises, and why Obama hasn't kept any of them. Obamas reply? "I didn't promise I'd get everything (I promised) done!" There's some news! How could voters know which of his promises he didn't promise to keep? For that matter, how would prospective voters know which of his new promises he'll keep--but wait--he's not promising anything but a continuation of what he's been doing--FAILING!
THE OBAMA CAMPAIGN AND THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA ARE FEEDING THE AMERICAN PEOPLE A STEADY DIET OF DECEPTION AND DENIAL
The deceptions involve such issues as making a big flap out of a clearly surreptitious video of Mitt Romney simply stating the factual truth to a group of supporters. The Obama campaign wants Ameicans to believe that Romney neither is interested in nor will do a good job for the 47% of Americans that receive some kind of government payments--and the nearly similar percentage who pay no Federal Income Taxes. That is a blatant lie (nothing new for Obama's campaign) and a massive deception. NOTHING COULD BE FURTHER FROM THE TRUTH. THE BEST THING THAT COULD HAPPEN TO THAT 47%
--AND FOR THE 23 MILLION AMERICANS UNEMPLOYED OR UNDEREMPLOYED WOULD BE TO ELECT MITT ROMNEY AND GET RID OF BARACK OBAMA.
THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA WOULD LIKE US TO BELIEVE THAT ROMNEY HAS ALREADY LOST. NOTHING COULD BE FURTHER FROM THE TRUTH. ONCE AGAIN THE OBAMA SUPPORTERS IN THE BIASED MAINSTREAM MEDIA ARE PRACTICING DECEPTION AND DENIAL.
Watch and listen to this short video by Haley Barbour, former governor of Mississippi and also former Head of the Republican National Committee. Haley is an experienced and savvy politician--and a smart guy. He debunks another of Obama-ites' lies.
WHAT ARE BUSINESSES GOING TO DO NOW? WAIT AND SEE, MOSTLY!
The stock market continues to do pretty well. Of course it would when the Fed keeps dumping money (not backed by anything but debt) into the US economy. The Fed is supposed to be independent of the White House, and anyone who believes that will be glad to hear some stories about Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy. Do you think it is a coincidence that Bernanke chooses to try "juicing up the economy" just 60 days before his "boss" is up for reelection. If you don't tell your friends and neighbors about this, they won't know. Drug dealers give out free samples to entice new users to become addicts. The White House has already created a nation full of addicts--not to drugs--but to HANDOUTS.
A SEASONAL UPTICK IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER--NO THANKS TO THE PRESIDENT, OR CONGRESS.
Retail sales always pick up for Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas. That's normal. the typical 1.5-2.0% growth rate in the economy might jump to 3, 3.5 or even (briefly) 4%…but with unemployment stuck at record high levels and hundreds of thousands of Americans leaving the work force every month--it is very unlikely to stay "UP." But Barack Obama doesn't care about that as much as he cares about how the economy can be propped up before the Nov. 6 election!
There is nothing this president and his followers in the mainstream media will not stoop to doing to get a second term. That includes burying the important news, and lying about the rest--or at least twisting it to serve Obama's needs.
VIVE' LA DIFFERENCE? NOW IT IS EXPLAINED SIMPLY:
The differences between Obama and Romney supporters:When someone asks you what the main difference is between the Obama supporters and Romney supporters, instead of stammering and stuttering and looking for an answer, just tell them that the Romney supporters sign their checks on the front, and the Obama supporters sign their checks on the back.
WHY ARE BUSINESS PEOPLE CONCERNED? AN ANTI-BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT AND MORE REGULATIONS EVERY DAY--ANOTHER SIXTY+ COMING BETWEEN ELECTION DAY AND THE END OF THE YEAR. Even if Romney wins, he can't stop them. He'll have to get them rolled back, and that may mean new appointees in numerous commissions--and that could take months. That's by business and government are inextricably intertwined. You cannot talk about one without recognizing the influence of the other. I WILL HAVE MORE ON THAT TOPIC VERY SOON…A POTENTIAL CHANGE I AM MAKING.
THE LONG ANSWER ABOUT WHY THE VARIATION IN POLL RESULTS:
One explanation is that all small polls--and all of these media driven very frequent polls are "small"--need to represent the beliefs of 75-100 million Americans. The polls must "normalize" the demographics of the poll to match that of the electorate. That's because many polls get far too many older folks (who stay home and answer the phone) and thus they must compensate for too few youth and minorities (heavier uses of cell phones which are hard to sample.
Another important decision is on what population of voters basis to do the normalization of responses. Depending on which voting electorate is used, he result can vary widely. E.g., if they use the 2004 electorate it had huge record turnouts of blacks, youth, Hispanics, etc. this would skew any poll toward Obama by an unknown number of points--probably as many as 5 or more. If they use the 2008 results, in which GOP turnout was much higher, that could skew results Romney's way. That may have been what this table was based on. Rasmussen uses a blend of 2004 & 2008 polling demographics, which is why those polls usually favor Romney more.
Since nobody knows the turnout profile for 2012 yet, the only thing pollsters can do is guess at what normalization to use.
Sampling choices for polls can also skew results by a lot--accidentally or intentionally. I have seen data which says most media and many "well known" polls over-sample Democrats and under sample GOP voters by 5 points or more.
All that said, Romney has made some bold comments that have been easily interpreted by the heavily liberal media to turn voters against him. Romney isn't just fighting Obama huge d spending. He's fighting the mainstream liberal media, while his allies run he dirtiest campaign in history. THey, and he, will stop at nothing to distract voters from his terrible record and the awful economy! Unfortunately it's working. Obama's idea of "fairness" is to take more money from those who earn it to give to his dependent big government voters--a cleverly disguised bribe for votes!
MEANWHILE, THE COUNTDOWN CONTINUES. ROADMAP TO PROFITABLE GROWTH IS NOW CLOSING IN ON ABOUT 60+/- DAYS TO PUBLICATION.
THE ONLY REASON IT WILL TAKE LONGER IS IF I DECIDE TO MAKE CHANGES AND/OR DELAY ITS RELEASE TO AVOID THE NEWS CRUSH OF THE ELECTION--WHICH I MIGHT DO!
