Milquetoast Mitt - Romney must rise out of insipidity.

Is is true that Barack Obama is a alien?
He needs fire in his belly and fearlessness in his rhetoric. 
NO MORE MR. NICE GUY!

We now have had  to the tune of $1 million per family stollen from our treasure by this wasteful government! 
The Slogans should at least say something like Obama Stinks, and so on, because he does!

Romney needs to get serious about the crisis we face.


The other day, I passed a Republican-party county office here in my home state, its window attractively emblazoned with placards declaring “Believe in America. Romney 2012” and “New Hampshire Believes. Romney 2012.” There’s not a lot of evidence for the latter proposition, but I’m certainly willing to believe that Romney believes that New Hampshire believes. An hour or two later, I chanced to be passing a television set just as the station went to break. The words “WE BELIEVE” appeared on the screen, followed by youthful hands raised to a clear blue sky at the dawn of a new day, shafts of sunlight gleaming through ears of corn, a puppy gamboling across a meadow, a kitten playfully pawing, happy green-T-shirted volunteers of many races unloading a recycling carton . . . and I thought, despite myself, “Well, say what you like, but the reassuring vapidity of the Romney campaign is at least getting more professional.” At the end, in the spot where the off-screen voice is supposed to say “I’m Mitt Romney and I approve this message,” it instead said: “Introducing Purina One Beyond: a new food for your cat or dog.”
Well, what do I know? By contrast, the Obama campaign’s theme is “Forward” — which, in the context of a second term for Mister You-Didn’t-Build-That, I’d carelessly assumed was a poignant allusion to “The Charge of the Light Brigade”:
“Forward, the Light Brigade!
Charge for the guns!” he said:
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
But apparently the focus groups are oblivious to Lord Tennyson, and “Forward” is seen as sunny and optimistic rather than a deranged lemming-like march into the abyss. In that sense, “Forward” is unusually honest for the Democrats, at least compared with their recent assertions that Romney hasn’t paid any taxes in ten years and personally gives women terminal cancer. “Forward” means “Even more of the same”: You can’t say he isn’t warning us.
Against this Romney offers “Believe in America.” It’s a slogan designed not to frighten the horses...
