Folks, We Have A Brand New Ballgame


Mitt Romney on Wednesday night turned in the finest debate performance of any candidate of either party in the 52 years since Richard Nixon faced John F. Kennedy, with the possible exception of Ronald Reagan's demolition of Jimmy Carter in 1980.

But where Reagan won with style and quips – "There you go again" – and his closing line, "Are you better off now than you were four years ago?" Romney crushed Obama on both substance and style.
Mitt was like a contender so keyed up by his title shot that, between rounds, he could not sit on his stool, but stood in his corner to rush out and re-engage the champ the instant the bell sounded for the next round.

Obama was mauled, with facts, figures, anecdotes, arguments, jokes, quips. A smiling Romney was on offense all night. And the president's performance seems inexplicable.

With the split screen showing his response to Romney's swarm attacks, he appeared diffident, sullen, pouting, flustered, petulant.

I have talked to many people from all walks of life after the debate. Mitt will never get over the truthful words from that video tape. He lost the race as soon as it became public. He's not worried about the 47%. He doesn't care about the middle class.

I hate to bring this up , but most of you know it anyway. Obama will win the election with:
1. 22,000,000 illegal votes
2. 26,000,000 black votes
3. 20,000,000 idiots
It's all a joke , most of America wants a dumb ass for a leader.
It's sad,but all we have left are followers.
