Do you really believe polls that are taken now? I don't. Sampling rates skewed to dems, people lying, I don't think they mean a thing.

Liberal social media sites sure did nail Romney for the spelling error on a campaign advertisement that spelled America as “Amercia.” Of course, the super-genius-team handpicked by President Einstein to run his campaign would never make a spelling typo, right? That’s why we have to wonder what they meant by “African-Amererican” in this post on the White House website: Thanks Buzzfeed!! Maybe it’s the offspring of an African-American and a Puerto Rican? Whatever they are, their name is fun to say… Amerrerrican…

Obamanomics strikes again - Durable goods orders actually dropped 1.1% in June—the worst reading in five months. This reading—durable goods orders with transportation orders removed—has been negative for the last three months; so much for an economic recovery and positive consumer confidence.

Four Little Words online.wsj.com Why the Obama campaign is suddenly so worried. What's the difference between a calm and cool Barack Obama, and a rattled and worried Barack Obama? Four words, it turns out. "You didn't build that" is swelling to such heights that it has the president somewhere unprecedented: on defense. Mr. Obama has little positive to brag about, and his campaign hinges on keeping negative attention on his opponent. The Obama campaign's bigger problem, both sides are now realizing, is that his words go beyond politics and are more devastating than the Romney complaints that Mr. Obama is too big-government oriented or has mishandled the economy. They raise the far more potent issue of national identity and feed the suspicion that Mr. Obama is actively hostile to American ideals and aspirations.

The results of Obamanomics Since Obama was sworn in, the unemployment rate has never been below 7.8%. It has been 8% or higher for 41 straight months. Last month, at least 5.3 million Americans had been without jobs for more than six months. When Obama took office, only 2.6 million had gone jobless for more than half a year. Today about 30% of the unemployed have been looking for work for a year or more. If the millions who have stopped looking for work because they can't find any were still counted, the real unemployment number would be closer to 17%. GDP: The economy grew a meager 1.9% annualized in the second quarter, down from 2.2% in the first quarter. It grew only 1.7% for all of 2011. The federal debt rose more during Obama's first 38 months in office — a bit more than $5 trillion — than it did under all eight years of George W. Bush. The CBO says Obama's policies will add an additional $6.4 trillion over the next decade.Auto bailouts: Obama hijacked a legal bankruptcy by automakers to "save" the industry. GM and Chrysler are still in business. But GM's stock has fallen to its lowest level since the bailout IPO. The company's sinking value could cost taxpayers $23 billion. Food stamps: A record 14.8% of the country — 46 million Americans — are in the program, well above the 9.3% during George W. Bush's final year in office and far in excess of the 1970-2000 average of 7.9%.
