Jigga "Rocs" For Clinton!

Jay-Z coming to the 'Land to rally Ohio Dems.

Jay-Z is coming to the crucial swing state of Ohio to perform a "get out to vote" concert for Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton. It's going to be a free concert in the 'Land.

The media mogul said it's time to make it happen. He will be doing the performance on Nov. 4.

The tickets are free and it will be probably gone before it is launched. There's no additional details at this moment but it's going to be big.

Also a warning to those attending. Don't buy the tickets from scalpers. This is a free concert. The Cuyahoga Board of Elections and the Ohio Attorney General warns of scams.



It's big in Cleveland. The Ohio city hosted the Cleveland Cavaliers in the NBA victory. The Cavs are starting off their season hoping to defend their title.

The Cleveland Indians are right now playing against the Chicago Cubs in the World Series. Hopefully one of these teams break away from the curse. Cleveland was the place where Donald Trump was nominated as the Republican leader.

The Jigga man is certainly going to an agitator who singled him out recently.

Jay-Z pissed off alt-right agitator Tomi Lahren.

I missed this feud but I will give a short rundown of it.

Tomi Lahren, the internet's right wing vixen went to war with Mr. Carter and his wife, Queen Bey.

She had called them out for being enablers of Black crime and demanded the two to stop crying about racial grievance.

"Your husband was a drug dealer. For 14 years he sold crack cocaine".

Jay-Z hopped on Pusha T's track and let Lahren have it. On Drug Dealers Anonymous, the rapper said that "Bitch, I've been brackin since the eighties. Google me, baby: You'ze crazy".

Tomi Lahren will likely go after Jay-Z for playing to the Black vote.

Ain't No Half-Steppin'!

Jobs aplenty and conservative agitators complaining.

Okay, once again the agitator dissect the latest job numbers for the month of August. The unemployment rate drops to 5.1% and it's netted a reasonable 176,000 jobs.

The jobs numbers for the final month of Summer netted less than expected. However, hiring is still going on.

Indicating that the slowdown in job growth was likely not reflective of the economy's true health, payrolls data for June and July were revised to show 44,000 more jobs created than previously reported. In addition, average hourly earnings increased 8 cents and the workweek rose to 34.6 hours.

While the report may not change views that the U.S. economy remains vibrant amid volatile global financial markets and slowing Chinese growth, it could make Fed officials hesitant to push borrowing costs higher at a policy meeting on Sept. 16-17.

In the wake of a recent global equities sell-off, financial markets significantly scaled back bets on a September rate hike over the past month. But Fed Vice Chairman Stanley Fischer told CNBC last week it was too early to decide whether the stock market rout had made an increase less compelling.

Still, the labor market is improving and adds to a string of upbeat data, including figures on automobile sales and housing, that has suggested the economy was moving ahead with strong momentum early in the third quarter after growing at a robust 3.7 percent annual rate in the April-through-June period.

The jobless rate's two-tenths of a percentage point drop took it to its lowest level since April 2008 and brought it into the range that most Fed officials think is consistent with a low but steady rate of inflation.

A broad measure of joblessness that includes people who want to work but have given up searching and those working part-time because they cannot find full-time employment fell to 10.3 percent, the lowest since June 2008, from 10.4 percent in July.

Jobs gains were spread across nearly all sectors of the economy in August. The energy and manufacturing sector, which are grappling with last year's sharp drop in crude oil prices and a strong dollar, were the exception.

Construction payrolls rose 3,000 last month on top of the 7,000 jobs added in July. Mining and logging employment fell by 10,000 jobs last month. Manufacturing payrolls fell 17,000, despite robust demand for autos.

The increase in hourly earnings left them 2.2 percent above their year-ago level, still well below the 3.5 percent growth rate economists consider healthy. Some analysts think earnings are being held back by falling wages in oil field services.

But a tightening labor market and decisions by several state and local governments to raise the minimum wage should eventually translate into faster earnings growth and give the Fed confidence that inflation, which collapsed with oil prices, will move closer to its 2 percent target.

A number of retailers, including Walmart, Target and TJX Cos, have increased pay for hourly workers.

Another thing. The idiocy of our politicians and agitators in the junk food media. The 93 million not working comments from concern trolls. Donald Trump, Ted Cruz and that network with the many agitators on made this bold claim that 1/3 of the U.S. population is not working.

Okay, there's 323 million Americans.

Let's put it all into perspective. First things first, for every birth. Do you believe that a newborn should be working. There's probably over 145,000 births a day.

Okay there's death. There's probably over 350,000 deaths a day.

Those who are between the age of 1 to 15. There's probably over 80 million children living.

Those who are in the iron college. There's probably over 5 million in iron college.

Those who are in high school or college (age 16 - 25) there's probably 5 million of those not working but attending full time at a high school or college.

Then those who have retired, physically disabled,  laid off or unemployed with no payroll.

Those people make the remaining amount of non-working individuals.

There's approximately 10 million active body people not working in the labor force.

Quit the lying and tell the truth.

Conservative Outrage Over Dems Get Out To Vote Strategy!

If you're willing to allow unfiltered ignorance to reign in Washington, DC, vote for the insurgent. But if you want common sense  politics, vote for North Carolina senator Kay Hagan, the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate. 

Conservatives are upset over the Democratic Senate Majority PAC using the "race card" to win.

Embattled Democratic senator Kay Hagan of North Carolina is relying on the advantages of early voting. Right now she's leading by 2 points in the polls and insurgent Thom Tillis is hoping to capitalize off the president's disappointing job approval in the state. Besides the president, the Tillis campaign got the biggest asshole on Loserville to help push out desperate votes.

That annoying conservative agitator was giving Tillis his last chance to get his racist right base out to vote. On the segment, that annoying agitator played clips of the Super Pac ad.



Then he went to bitching about Trayvon Martin, the "so-called" six to eight Black witness to back up Ferguson officer Darren Wilson, the shooter of unarmed Michael Brown and rehashing the old Southern Democrats.

He asked if Tillis was willing to condemn the ads. Of course Tillis was ready to respond to them.

Tillis would say that Barack Obama's policies aren't helpful to Black and the talk about what he may do if he wins the election. The usual promise everything but deliver nothing. Hagan done it too just to be fair.

Conservatives are so annoying. They really want Blacks, Hispanics and young voters to sit out these elections. Conservatives hope Republicans rally on their racist right base! With all the talk about  Black on White crime, illegal immigration, Ebola and ISIS, the Republicans are hoping to win the U.S. Senate on negativity.

They have no plan to bring jobs to Americans. They have no agenda to solve the economic gap between rich and poor. They want to cut the safety net. They just want to scream and yell! It's pathetic that when Democrats were in charge things were moving forward.

If it takes another thumping from Republicans to get the Democrats back to the minority, then so be it! The Democrats practically had the advantage. They managed to turnout a huge base. What went wrong?

And looking forward to Tuesday, the U.S. Senate chances are GOOD for Republicans. They have a 67% chance to take back the Senate.

And to make this clear, I am certainly not too thrill to have the inept opposition in power.

By the way, that annoying conservative agitator continues to ignore the Republicans playing the card.

If you haven't seen the Nebraska 2nd District House Race? It's not pretty. They pulled out the race card in this event. Not a peep from that annoying conservative agitator and Loserville.

Minority Leader's Defeat Top Priority For Democrats!

Senator Mitch McConnell is often taunted for looking like a turtle. Example is the character from Disney's Robin Hood. 

Senator Mitch McConnell is a Republican from Kentucky. He has some issues. He leads the Republican caucus and its members of the U.S. Senate.

He and Senator Harry Reid (D-Nevada, Majority Leader) rule over the worst legislative body in modern history.

The Congress itself has ranked among one of the worst when it comes to getting things done.

It seems to have taken a toll in the popularity of the longtime veteran of the Senate.

He thought that actress Ashley Judd was a push over. He was hoping the Democrats were going to line her up so he could help motivate Republicans to take back the Senate. That idea was squashed.

Wait til he meets gun and coal industry supporting Alison Grimes, the potential Democratic opponent.

The Public Policy Poll has shook up the Minority Leader. He's trailing by one point against an appointed Democratic challenger.

But the news gets worse. McConnell may face a threat from the right. The Republicans are infighting and there's a possibility a formidable Republican could upset the longtime senator.

Right now as it stands, Kentucky is a LEAN REPUBLICAN in my opinion. The state has voted Democrat in the 1993 and 1996 U.S. Presidential Elections. Bill Clinton, the only president from Arkansas managed to pull some of the Bible Belt votes. Even though Democrats are elected governors in the South, the states are trending more Republican.

Now say if McConnell does tread water against the Democratic nominee. He will likely win but by a nail biter. So it's still a LEAN REPUBLICAN.

Now if McConnell does lose the primary and there's a new Republican nominee, it's SAFE REPUBLICAN.

If state law allows it, McConnell runs as an independent and force a three way race, then it's going to be TOSS UP (LEAN REPUBLICAN).

The Republicans seize on the "dog whistle" politics that made it almost harder for Democrats to win.

The Democrats have 52 elected members and two independents who caucus with them. The Republicans have 46 members. About 12 of those members belong to the Tea Party Movement.

Senators Ted Cruz (R-Texas), Rand Paul (R-Kentucky), John McCain (R-Arizona), Marco Rubio (R-Florida), Mike Lee (R-Utah), Kelly Ayotte (R-New Hampshire), Ron Johnson (R-Wisconsin), Deb Fischer (R-Nebraska), Jeff Sessions (R-Alabama), Lindsay Graham (R-South Carolina), Orin Hatch (R-Utah), Mike Crapo (R-Idaho), David Vitter (R-Louisiana), Tim Scott (R-South Carolina), and McConnell are the members of gridlock.

So far, the president's adversaries has been tooth and nail in stalling. The Democrats have warned the Republicans not to keep stalling (filibustering) the president's appointees.

If they continue, the Democrats may force a "nuclear option". The nuclear option is a forced vote by the majority. That requires the Senate to drop the bids of votes from 60 to 51. With Vice President Joe Biden being a tie breaker if the senate stalls at 50-50.

McConnell, Lee, Paul, Cruz, Graham, McCain, Ayotte, Sessions and Rubio always seem to be on GOP Sundays running off at the mouth about how President Barack Obama isn't doing anything or doing too much of something.

Which is it?

He does something or he does nothing!

Senator Jeff Flake (R-Arizona), Senator Deb Fischer (R-Nebraska), Senator Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky, Minority Leader) and Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas). 

NBC News reports that despite reports of high fundraising, McConnell’s approval ratings certainly aren't helping his prospects. PPP data from April put him at 36% job approval, down from 37% in December.

But that same December poll showed that despite being the most unpopular senator in the United States, McConnell led all Democrats tested against him, including Grimes, who was shown at a 7-point deficit.

This most recent poll shows McConnell’s approval ticking up slightly, 40% of Kentuckians approve of the job he’s doing, but this number is a decrease from the 44% McConnell was sporting in late May. That month PPP placed him in a dead heat with Grimes, 45-45, “the weakest position PPP has found him in yet.”

One month after the left-leaning pollster found McConnell in a position of weakness, the Kentucky senator’s campaign came out with an auto-tuned attack ad on Grimes. Released one day after she announced her challenge bid, the video asks “What rhymes with Alison Lundergan Grimes?”, answering with phrases like “sticks to the party line” and “left-wing mime.”

The PPP survey did not include Matt Bevin, McConnell’s Tea-Party backed primary challenger.

Team McConnell released an attack ad on Wednesday, challenging Bevin for receiving a “tax payer bail out” after his Connecticut company failed to pay taxes and painting him as an “East Coast Con Man.”

A Republican poll by Wenzel Strategies last week found McConnell leading Bevin by a solid margin, 59% to 20%. That same poll showed McConnell leading Grimes by 8 points, 48% to 40%.

As you know, McConnell knows dirty politics. He was outlining a negative campaign against Ashley Judd.

He was going to slut-shame her. He wanted to paint the actress/activist as a "far left bimbo who would vote on legislation that regulate firearms and the coal industry."

He wanted to keep the interests of "Kentuckians" in mind by trying to dog whistle race, sex, gender, and political standings in this potential match up.

This and the Wyoming race are the most talked about in the 2014 U.S. Midterms.

What we'll expect from the 2014 U.S. Midterm races is Mark Begich (D-Alaska), Kay Hagan (D-North Carolina), Mary Landrieu (D-Louisiana), Tim Scott (R-South Carolina), Lindsay Graham (R-South Carolina), and Mike Enzi (R-Wyoming) may face tougher opponents.

Enzi is facing a primary challenge by Liz Cheney, the daughter of former vice president Dick Cheney.

Democrats have retirements in Montana, Iowa, Michigan, South Dakota, and West Virginia.

If the election was held today, the Democrats would have 51 to 49.

Summer Heat!

Okay, Friday brings forth the release of the jobs report. And there's a sign that the economy is improving.

The Labor Department reports that there were 196,000 jobs added in the month of June. Unfortunately the unemployment number continues to stand at 7.6%.

The signs that more Americans are looking for jobs with cautious optimism. So there's a slight possibility more Americans are confident to find a job in less than a week.

There is still long term joblessness. People are very cautious of looking for a job. People continue to think we're still in a recession despite the improvements in the economy and stock market rebound.

There are more service industry jobs that offering less hours and low pay. But require overwhelmingly hard work.

Congress job approval is terrible. The congress has job approval at 13%

The president's job approval is at 45%. Mostly due to the controversies of the NSA, IRS and lack of progress in his second term.

The country is bouncing back.

But there's still some who would rather take it to the ground so they can have a "gotcha moment".

SCOTUS Gives Voting Rights The Ax!

Conservative wing of the Supreme Court struck down provision that prevents voter discrimination.

In a major decision, the conservative wing of the U.S. Supreme Court struck down a portion of the Voting Rights Act that advocated for Southern states to be monitored for scheming during elections.

The progressive movement is outraged by the decision. Many figured that the Supreme Court is now acting like a bunch of activists. The 5-4 decision once again proves that each decision made by the court will greatly affect everything.

In Shelby County v. Holder, the United States Supreme Court struck down Section 4(b) of the Act and its formula for requiring preclearance as unconstitutional based on current conditions, saying it was rational and needed at the time it was enacted but is no longer necessary, notwithstanding the fact that Congress had nearly-unanimously reauthorized the Act in 2006. Preclearance itself was not struck down, but has no effect unless Congress passes a new formula.

That portion of the Act in question was designed to prevent discrimination in voting by requiring all state and local governments with a history of voting discrimination to get approval from the federal government before making any changes to their voting laws or procedures, no matter how small. In an opinion by Chief Justice John G. Roberts that was joined by Justices Scalia, Kennedy, Thomas, and Alito, the Court did not invalidate the principle that preclearance can be required.

Petitioner Shelby County, in the covered jurisdiction of Alabama, sued Attorney Genera Eric Holder in Federal District Court in Washington, D.C, seeking a declaratory judgment that sections 4(b) and 5 are facially unconstitutional, as well as a permanent injunction against their enforcement. The District Court upheld the Act, finding that the evidence before Congress in 2006 was sufficient to justify reauthorizing §5 and continuing §4(b)'s coverage formula. The D. C. Circuit affirmed. After surveying the evidence in the record, that court accepted Congress’s conclusion that §2 litigation remained inadequate in the covered jurisdictions to protect the rights of minority voters, that §5 was therefore still necessary, and that the coverage formula continued to pass constitutional muster.

Black Voter Turnout Surpassed White Voters!

Can we keep this voting thing going? Black voters turnout heavy this last election. If we can get the Republicans out of Congress, we're going to need more than just a few Blacks in the voting booth.

Wondering if the Republican Party and their conservative extremist allies believe it's another attempt by those evil Black Panthers?

Wondering if these Knee-Grows voted for the color instead of the character?

Republicans are quick to dismiss the higher Black turnout on issues that had nothing to do with it. Of course, they'll claim that the name of the Democratic candidate is on the ballot twice. The Black voters embrace the "gubmint gibbs mes" from "brotha" Barack. The skin color is the only thing those "ignant Black folk" support.

Conservative talk radio and Loserville have been on a dog whistle campaign the moment Barack Obama announced he was running for president.

Still some white people believe that the president is either a socialist, Communist, a radical, a racist, a Muslim, a person who hates America, the devil and the guy who takes too many vacations on the taxpayer's dime.

Black voters see this as a disrespect not only upon the president, but the Black community in general. The first Black president ever to hold office and the conservative media treats President Barack Obama like he's a "thug" or being "not one of them".

It's shows through the Republican Party's intrusive strategy to win back the Congress. They've passed legislation that makes it a requirement to have an identification when voting. They want to eliminate overtime pay so businesses can work an individual for lesser pay. They want to cut domestic programs that could help the needy and poor. They refuses to cave on gun control, yet they're screaming at the Black man, the Muslim or the Hispanic man with firearms.

Reince Priebus, the Republican chairman has tried and failed to win over minority votes.

This may be the coming of a new era in voting. For the first time ever, Black voter turnout surpassed White voters. The White race is 74% of the United States general population.

With the shift in demographics making the Hispanic population the fastest minority group, White males are on the decline. And in thirty years, the White male will officially be a minority.

The Huffington Post and Associated Press reports America's blacks voted at higher rates than whites in 2012, lifting Democrat Barack Obama to victory amid voter apathy, particularly among young people, new census data show. Despite increasing population, the number of white voters declined for the first time since 1996.

Blacks were the only race or ethnic group to show an increase in voter turnout in November, most notably in the Midwest and Southeastern U.S., the Census Bureau said Wednesday. The analysis, based on a sample survey of voters last year, is viewed as the best source of government data on turnout by race and ethnicity.

The Associated Press reported last week that black voter turnout surpassed whites for the first time, based on an analysis by experts of earlier data.

In all, about 66.2 percent of eligible black voters cast ballots in 2012, up from 64.7 percent in 2008, according to census data. That compares with non-Hispanic white turnout of 64.1 percent, which fell from 66.1 percent four years earlier. As recently as 1996, blacks had turnout rates 8 percentage points lower than non-Hispanic whites.

Not helpful. Besides the first Black president is a Democrat. That's the emancipation!

Latino turnout dipped slightly, from 49.9 percent in 2008 to 48 percent, while Asian-American turnout was basically unchanged at 47 percent.

Voter turnout across all race and ethnic groups fell for a second consecutive presidential election, from 64 percent in 2004 to 62 percent in November, according to the census figures.

"Obama's win in 2012, despite the important Democratic constituency of young voters not participating at a high level, is good news," said Michael McDonald, a George Mason University professor who specializes in voter turnout. "The bad news is that voting is a habit – and the fact that we saw turnout declines among younger African-Americans suggests Democrats will have to work even harder to excite these voters in future elections."

The data underscore how turnout plays an important role in elections for both whites and blacks, who will remain the two largest racial groups of eligible voters for the next decade. While Hispanics are now the fast-growing demographic group, they currently make up a smaller share of eligible voters because many are children and non-citizens, limiting their electoral impact for the immediate future.

In 2012, the number of blacks who voted rose by 1.7 million. Hispanics added 1.4 million and Asian voters increased by 550,000.


Meanwhile, even though the white population is slowly increasing, the number of white voters dropped by 2 million – the first drop in absolute terms for any race or ethnic group since 1996.

By age, youth enthusiasm for voting fizzled in 2012.

About 41 percent of voters age 18-24 cast ballots in November, down 7 percentage points from 2008. The drop was greatest among whites, whose turnout fell from 49 percent to 42 percent. But young black voters also saw big declines, from 55 percent in 2008 to 49 percent. That's compared with a decline among young Hispanics from 39 percent to 34 percent.

The only subgroups showing increases in voter turnout were among blacks ages 45 to 64 as well as those 65 and older.

"Blacks have been voting at higher rates, and the Hispanic and Asian populations are growing rapidly, yielding a more diverse electorate," said Thom File, a census sociologist who wrote the voting analysis. "Over the last five presidential elections, the share of voters who were racial or ethnic minorities rose from just over 1 in 6 in 1996 to more than 1 in 4 in 2012."

"We do know the population is growing more diverse, and the electorate is growing more diverse in a different way," File added.

Other census findings:

_White turnout declined in 39 states from 2008 to 2012, including presidential battleground states such as Ohio, Virginia and Florida.

_The gender gap in voting persists, a trend since 1996. About 64 percent of women voted, compared with 60 percent of men.

_Declines in voter turnout also were seen most notably among single people, the unemployed, renters and those with only a high school education or some college, suggesting in part voter disenchantment amid a sluggish economy.

_Black voter turnout surpassed that of whites mostly in the Midwest region, which covers Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin and Michigan, as well as the Southern U.S. region including Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia.

Demographers say the numbers pose long-term challenges for Republicans, given that 80 percent of nonwhites voted for Obama in November.

Analyses by Brookings Institution demographer William H. Frey show that Republican Mitt Romney would have barely won the presidency if whites and other race groups had turned out at the same rates as they did in 2004, when black turnout was below its current historic levels. But if Democrats can replicate 2012 turnout rates in 2016, they would win the presidency, given current population trends, Frey said.

Paul Taylor, executive vice president of the Pew Research Center, indicated the economy will be an important factor in future elections, noting that Hispanics and young people were among the hardest hit during the high unemployment years of 2008-2012.

"Given what we know about the youth bulge in the population, Millennials and Hispanics will become ever more important voting blocs in upcoming presidential elections," Taylor said. "But in 2012, both groups left a lot of votes on the table."

The census figures are based on the Current Population Survey as of November 2012. Since Hispanic is defined by the government as an ethnicity and not a race, census figures for "blacks" and "Asians" may include Hispanics. Census data for "white" refer to whites who are not of Hispanic ethnicity.

Name A Young Voter Who's Heard Of Ronald Reagan?

If you were born after 1989, you've never heard of Ronald Reagan.

That's a little too much! Let's say that you've heard of him, but you don't know much about his legacy! Practically you've read it in history or civics class. And practically, young voter don't care about it either.

It's a damn shame that the Republican Party is still stuck on the 20th Century. They've fallen and they can't get up! Seriously, the Republican Party is tone deaf to the changing demographics.

Young voters can only remember at best George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and Barack Obama. And thanks to the controversial issues fed through the junk food media, the tide is turning. Things that we used to shun in general are now more open and people are tolerating it.

The young voters are a key demographic that is ripe with fresh votes. The Democrats have taken advantage of this by moving forward. The Republicans may have just sealed their fate. Still living in a generation that keeps overpaid agitators rich and the young voters tuned out.

Gay marriage is coming!

They're lighting up the weed!

Sundays aren't in the church! They're in the bed.

The immigrants are moving into the cities, the suburbs and the gated communities!

It's getting browner and yes, it's because of interracial births and open relationships.

The junk food media feeds young voters issues that revolve around celebrities and gotcha moments from politicos.

The social networks are killing off the cable television, newspapers, books, DVDs and music CDs.

We don't have to watch television anymore. We can view our shows on the internet or through our gadgets.

The rich are about to lose their perks! The tax havens and money funneling to other countries are on the verge of coming to an end.

Many Americans have war fatigue. The war drums are not as loud! They don't want to waste more blood and treasure in the Middle East. Even the threat from North Korea isn't moving the needle. The crisis in North Africa isn't appealing to the American people. People don't care about the conflicts in Libya, Egypt, Israel, Syria and the undisputed Palestine territories.

The threat of terrorism exists everyday. But more Americans worry about their neighbors more than some guy in a turban and garb.

So far, the young voters only care about finding jobs, homes, cars, luxuries, and college.

They don't care about the talk about debt, taxes and firearms. The debt is only important when they've maxed out their credit cards or owe student loans. That stuff is a turn off to the general public.

Hence, the Republican Party's outreach. An outrage that fails to see this. A political party that continues to take marching orders from overpaid agitators and half-term former governors.

Yes, Republicans do have young voters in the fold. Some young voters who vote Republican do attend some form of school. You may find a young voter in public school, private school, being homed-schooled and taught religious or non-religious education. But are they losing this fold too?

Even some of their young voters are warming to gay marriage, marijuana legalization and are experiencing war fatigue.

I was born in 1980. I was born around the time when Jimmy Carter, the 39th President of the United States was getting his clocked cleaned by former California governor named Ronald Wilson Reagan.

People remember him as a radio announcer and later an actor who played roles in movies and sitcoms. A man once palled with a chimpanzee named Bonzo and told the team to win one for The Gipper.

His first wife was Jane Wyman, a fellow actress. After the marriage turned sour, he went on to marry another leading lady named Nancy Davis.

Who would of thought an actor would become the President of The United States?

I remember the 40th President of the United States, Ronald Reagan. I was young and didn't care about his politics. I didn't care about the president's political party he represented. I just knew him as our president.

Whatever he done, wasn't affecting my life. I was a kid so I was more aware of the playmates than the Iran-Contra affair. I don't remember John Hinckley shooting him. I was too young. I do remember Christa McAuliffe and the six astronauts dying in the Challenger tragedy.

I knew the only thing that kept me going was the playmates, the 1980s-themed television programs and a weekend (or summer break) off from school.

I give Reagan credit, he was a popular president. He managed to run the country for eight years. He won two landslide elections and survived a near fatal shooting. He was a friend, foe and father to many.

I grew up during the days of sitcoms and cartoons that featured public service announcements.

I grew up in the days where urban plight was the driver of White flight.

I grew up watching the Challenger Space Shuttle tragedy in 1986.

I remember the Cold War talk and the Red Scare out of Moscow.

I remember talk about the Berlin Wall. A wall that divided Berlin into two separate cities. One for the Western nations and the other allied to the Soviet Union. One theme that Reagan presented was the famous quote: "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!"

I could remember the talk about Ronald Reagan and his best friend Margaret Thatcher, then prime minister of Great Britain. They managed to drive conservatism into the mainstream. It also allowed overpaid conservative agitators to drive the AM dial even further to the bottom.

I don't remember everything that happened while I was young but I knew that Ronald Reagan had made people feel good about themselves. He's considered a "rock star" among the Republican faithful.

The legacy of Ronald Reagan is memorable. He was the oldest elected president. At age 69, many Americans assumed that his health was going to deteriorate during his term. According to his son, Ron Reagan, he thought his dad was showing signs of Alzheimer's disease after his second term.

My biggest concern with the Republican Party is the constant rewrite of history. They've taken credit for things they've never supported. Let's take for example, the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The Republicans claim they were solely responsible for passing the law. It was the choice of two Democratic presidents, John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson. Kennedy was assassinated by an extremist. Johnson faced opposition from the conservative Democrats (Dixiecrats) and Republicans. Once this was passed, Democrats ended up losing the South. To this day, many states in the South have went to Republicans easily.

Some of the themes by some in the conservative agitating media generate the condescending rhetoric about how young voters are "idiots" and "low information voters". That right there turns off voters and makes it even harder for the Republicans to win over young voters.

Another reason for the deficit of young voters is Republican parents home schooling young minds into bigotry and hatred of other!

Why on earth would any family member try to inject politics into their young children?

With all the anti-Obama rhetoric from those in the Republican Party, one is to believe that they're the party of fiscal responsibility. One is to believe the party is more tolerant of race, gender, sexuality, religion, education, political and economic standings. One is to believe the Republican Party was the party of civil rights. The way they're going today will make the Republican Party a party of White people and freaking idiots!

Republicans didn't care about the debt and massive spending. They didn't care about the tax increases. They didn't care about the incidents that lead to deaths of Americans. Sure they were some politicos and consultants who worried, but conservatives were lockstep in whatever Reagan done. Regardless of it being right or wrong.

I mean it's over 30 years since his presidency, and the Republicans still continue to run on this narrative that his policies worked. If his policies have worked, why hasn't a Republican won the presidency since George W. Bush?

Republicans skip through the forest when it came to disasters of previous Republican presidents.

Are you afraid to mention James Garfield, Herbert Hoover, Richard Nixon, George H.W. and George W. Bush?

Republicans can only endorse Reagan and Abraham Lincoln as the saviors of the Republican Party.

If they were alive today, these individuals would be marched right out of the party. They've would have been considered too liberal for the current establishment.

Bounce!

Good news for president means anger for the conservatives and Mitt Romney.

This week leads into the jobs report, with unemployment for the month of September. It ticks down to 7.8%.

Oh, the conservatives are going to cry foul about this one!

They're caught in disbelief that the economy is improving and the policies by the president has helped the country. The Republican governors of Ohio, Florida, Virginia and Wisconsin can brag about their state's putting things together but devoid themselves of crediting the federal level for allowing this to happen. And even though these fools are still going to push this narrative that the president didn't create jobs, those in the media will dismiss this as political desperation.

The Associated Press reports that unemployment has ticked down.

U.S. unemployment rate fell to 7.8 percent last month, dropping below 8 percent for the first time in nearly four years. The rate fell because more people found work, a trend that could impact the presidential election.

The Labor Department says employers added 114,000 jobs in September. The economy also created 86,000 more jobs in July and August than first estimated. Wages rose in September and more people started looking for work.

One last chance to win the narrative. 

The revisions show employers added 146,000 jobs per month from July through September, up from 67,000 in the previous three months. The unemployment rate fell from 8.1 percent in August, matching its level in January 2009 when President Barack Obama took office.

The decline could help Obama, who is coming off a disappointing debate against Mitt Romney.

Before you go through the books, we know that millions of Americans are still trying to find work. But so far, the spending has increased and companies are hiring for season work.

The seasonal work means people will obtain dollars in their pockets meaning the companies in retail and industrial are expecting heavy demand. That will be quite helpful to President Barack Obama against Republican nominee Mitt Romney.

Republicans are still trying to sabotage the economy to hurt the president. But this argument of unemployment being at 8% or higher for the long haul during Obama's term ends.

The barrage of political ads will continue all the way to November. And don't except these ads to change anytime soon.

This comes as no surprise that mainstream media isn't really mentioning the jobs report. I've watched CBS The Morning and the host Charlie Rose, Norah O'Donnell and Gayle King covered the final hour avoiding the mention of the job numbers. They were talking about celebrity stories.

This also deflates the great night Mitt Romney had on Wednesday when he brought his Fox News talking points to the debate. Mitt Romney came under attack this week from angry Sesame Street supporters after he declared that he loves character Big Bird but will still cut funding to PBS (by severing the Corporation for Public Broadcasting).

After November 6, 2012, say if President Barack Obama wins the election. We'll look back at the key players to why Mitt Romney lost this election. I entitled this "The Reason For The Loss!" Each chronicles the key players of the election and those who made President Barack Obama win.

If Mitt Romney should win the presidency, we'll look back at why President Barack Obama was defeated and look forward to the next chapter in the presidency. We'll focus on how Mitt Romney could win the support of an angry electorate who felt that Obama's race contributed to his lost!

Could It Be The Mitt Romney Turnaround?

The first presidential debate has passed and it looks like the "zingers" helped the Republican nominee best President Barack Obama. Most analysis concluded that Mitt Romney came off the better debater in this first debate held at the University of Denver.

What may discourage the president's supporters is the fact he didn't mention some of the awful gaffes that were made by Romney during the last few months.

What excited the conservatives is the fact that Romney parroted all the talking points he's read on The Drudge Report or through outlets like Fox News.


Now I am surprised that people were expecting the president was going to win the debate! I kind of figured that the president was going to bring his A-game, but held back! Or maybe that the moderator didn't handle the debate as well. I heard the conservative media lamblast those who moderate the debates.

The president was being hammered by the failures to mention Mitt Romney's weaknesses. The fact that he didn't mention the 47% gaffe. The offshore accounts and of course his lack of foreign policy experience.

This failure to mention this gaffes gave Romney an advantage. But Romney did some walking back of his own. At times, Romney did get quite testy with the president and debate moderator Jim Leher.

Overrall, is this the turnaround for the once struggling Mitt Romney campaign?

Is That You, Mitt? You're Sweating Desperation!

Deer in the headlights moment.

Look at this guy!

He's got the deer in the headlights moment. The Mother Jones YouTube clip in which he spoke negatively about American voters failing to pay their taxes are willing supporting President Barack Obama not only proven to be a misstatement, but an anchor tied around his condescending neck.

You can't tell me that this jerk, Mitt Romney cares about the middle class. You can't tell me that Mitt Romney is actually serious about fixing the economy.

You already got less talk about him and more talk about the issue with this anti-Islamic movie that sparked global unrest and violence in the Middle East.

The president has launched an aggressive campaign to paint this clown as aloof on foreign policy and willing to help the upper class with tax cuts that could impact our economy.

Romney tried to say "Obama Isn't Working!" That's not working!

Romney picked Congressman Paul Ryan (R-Wisconsin) to be his running mate to assure that he's "severely" conservative. There's less talk about him, and he's grumbling! He feels that the campaign isn't giving him enough exposure and he's starting to be discouraged. The Republicans and their conservative allies are starting to see the impact of a tepid Mitt Romney. The usually careful Romney Campaign started its course downward last year.

First you got a bunch of even more extreme candidates trying their best to beat him. Tim Pawlenty, Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum, Michele Bachmann, Rick Perry and Herman Cain were trying to paint themselves as the anti-Romney candidate.

The Republican candidates were taken out quickly by their own faults. Mitt Romney was a moderate candidate at the time, but he knew how to maneuver through the angry rhetoric to beat them out!

But under pressure, Mitt Romney fired his foreign policy adviser for being gay. He allowed his chief communication adviser tell a liberal comedian that he'll "Etch-A-Sketch" to a position to win independent voters. He allows his adviser tell a friendly media outlet that his "infamous" healthcare reform is the greatest, pissing off conservatives. He is boxed into a corner about releasing more than a year's worth a taxes. His own father released over 10 years of taxes. He is vague on his policies to fix the economy. Even his own running mate can't say what Romney's plans are!

We're not there yet, but these debates are the last thing before we cast our votes.

Instead of waiting to vote on November 6, 2012, I'm gonna do early voting. Early voting is the safest and yes easiest way to get things done. I am guessing it's going to be chaotic in the coming weeks.

Mother Jones has promised more videos are on the way.

You can smell the desperation in the campaign.

Conservative talk radio isn't talking about Romney much in their three hour word salad. They're focus on Obama only. That assures they're writing Mitt Romney off.

Known rifts in the campaign started with direct criticism from the likes Laura Ingraham, Rush Limbaugh, George Will, Peggy Noonan, Bill Kristol, Steve Schmidt (former McCain Campaign Chief Adviser), Herman Cain, Bill O'Reilly, Erick Erickson, Michelle Malkin, S.E. Cupp, Neal Boortz and even Sarah Palin. They've  knocked the Romney Campaign for being weak.

It's out in the open.

Sean Hannity seems like the only person who is willing to see the positive of a disastrous campaign.

Instead of apologizing for the comments, he double downs. Romney spoke to reporters Monday evening in a hastily called news conference after the emergence of a video in which the GOP presidential nominee told donors that almost half of American voters "believe that they are victims."

The Republican nominee did not disavow the comments but said they were made during a question-and-answer session. He said it was indicative of his campaign's effort to "focus on the people in the middle."

You got to admit that I'm not surprised that Mitt Romney isn't going to apologize. It would defeat his argument that "Obama apologizes for the America's woes". And I guess he's stuck in his ways with this type of rhetoric.

Is That You, Mitt?

Shake the Etch-A-Sketch!

Wow, what a day!

Mother Jones really got the October Surprise out early. This is a shocking development to the country's most inept politically awkward perennial candidate who happens to be Republican nominee for president.

YouTube, Facebook and Twitter. The most powerful things in American media. You're never far from the prying eyes of the amateur filmmaker. It takes one person and a camera to expose this fool for what he is!

This could shake things up in favor of President Barack Obama.

Now while I'm kind of giddy about the latest developments to how a serious candidate for president managed to not only bring forth the argument of him being "out of touch", but the fact he took an overly inflated and grossly misinformed statement and ran with it!

According to sources, Romney stated that the overwhelming majority of voters who back President Barack Obama do so because they are "dependent on government" and "believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing!"

Mitt Romney told a closed-door gathering of about 30 major donors earlier this year, about his disdain for those in the middle class, according to video of the event that has surfaced on the Internet.

Romney is a privileged person. He's the son of an automotive executive turned governor. He's never served in the Vietnam War. He supported the war and dodged it to serve as a goodwill ambassador in France.

He doesn't know much about being a middle class voter! He thinks that 47% of supporters of Obama are lazy, "gubmint" dependent losers!

The Politico, The Huffington Post, Mother Jones, Talking Points Memo, Addicting Info all contribute to this bombshell. It's Monday and this is going to be weeks of progressives shaking their fist in anger and demanding that the president hit this sucker where it hurts.

The person who uploaded a series of potentially inflammatory videos from the fundraiser has claimed authorship of them in an email exchange with The Huffington Post. The source said he or she wishes to remain anonymous for professional reasons and to avoid a lawsuit. The videos, which have created a buzz on the Internet, were blurred and at times blacked out to obscure the location of the filming, the source said.

"I have obviously degraded the quality to attempt to camo the location," said the clandestine filmmaker. The original, which has not been posted in full, is very high quality, the source said.

The source has given the full video to Mother Jones' David Corn, the source said.

The videos capture Romney speaking loosely about Obama supporters, immigrants, privilege and a host of other controversial issues. The candidate seems unguarded and displays the sense of humor that is often mentioned by those close to him, but is so rarely on public display.

It's Romney's remark about the president's backers that might have the most potential to undermine his candidacy, however, as Romney seeks to persuade people who voted for Obama in 2008 to switch this time.

"There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what," Romney says in one clip. "All right -- there are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent on government, who believe that, that they are victims, who believe that government has the responsibility to care for them. Who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing."

Romney's comments on the video go a step beyond his August claim, made in public, that the Obama administration's state-by-state welfare waivers were an effort to "shore up his base." In the behind-closed-doors speech to donors, Romney seems to be suggesting that nearly half of Americans expect to have all their needs supplied by the government.

"[M]y job is not to worry about those people. I'll never convince them they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives," Romney also said in the video, according to Mother Jones.

As for the other 53 percent? Romney may have been referencing a meme started by conservative blogger Erick Erickson, who has noted that only 53 percent of Americans pay federal income taxes. Erickson argued that the rest of the country, and in particular the Occupy Wall Street movement, should "suck it up you whiners."

Mitt Romney claims that President Barack Obama supporters fail at paying taxes. He's gotten caught up in the moment of letting one slip. 

The notion that Democrats hope to ride dependency to political power is one that has no shortage of adherents among conservatives. “We are reaching the tipping point where the majority of Americans are recipients of government programs,” columnist George Will said recently on Laura Ingraham's radio show. "Heavens, one in seven of Americans is on food stamps today. The gamble -- it's really not a gamble, the tactic -- of the Democratic Party is to run up the dependency ratio in this country until you get 50-60 percent of Americans dependent on the government in at least one or often in multiple ways, at which point they figure the party of government will always win."

But there are a few problems with the idea of the overburdened "53 percent." Many Americans don't pay federal income taxes, in part, because of deductions like the child tax credit that have been championed by conservatives and progressives alike. Almost all of the "47 percent" do pay other federal taxes in the form of Social Security and Medicare payroll deductions and gas levies, as well as a variety of state and local sales and property taxes that aren't dependent on income.

"Mitt Romney wants to help all Americans struggling in the Obama economy. As the governor has made clear all year, he is concerned about the growing number of people who are dependent on the federal government, including the record number of people who are on food stamps, nearly one in six Americans in poverty, and the 23 million Americans who are struggling to find work," Romney spokeswoman Gail Gitcho said in a statement responding to the video's release. "Mitt Romney's plan creates 12 million new jobs in four years, grows the economy and moves Americans off of government dependency and into jobs."

A separate video clip that featured Romney addressing deplorable conditions at a Chinese factory began making the rounds on the Internet last month. In that video, he contrasted the conditions he witnessed on a business trip to China with conditions in the United States, where he said, "Ninety-five percent of life is set up for you if you were born in this country."

Commentators have seized on the assertion that people are mostly set if they're born in the U.S. In fact, tens of millions of Americans are jobless or living in poverty. The notion also cuts against one of Romney's campaign themes, which is that those who are successful have gotten to where they are on their own.

In addition, the video is notable for Romney's recounting of conditions he saw at the factory. By his own telling, he seemed satisfied when the factory owner told him the barbed wire was to keep job-seekers out, not to keep workers in. Romney may have been referring to conditions at Global Tech Appliances Inc., a Chinese manufacturer, in which Bain Capital invested, that was fined $2.65 million for ripping off a deep-fat fryer design, according to Boston Globe reporter Matt Viser.

There are at least 10 of these videos, each allegedly clipped from the same fundraiser. A YouTube link to the Chinese factory clip, it turns out, was initially posted in May in the comments section of The Huffington Post under the handle romneyexposed.

The commenter posted a link to a YouTube account by the same name, which includes a version of the factory video and three others. Six more videos exist under another account.

It's almost over!

In one of the other videos, Romney lamented, in a joking way, that he would have a better chance of being elected if his father had been ethnically Mexican, rather than born to white parents living in Mexico.

"My dad, as you probably, know was the governor of Michigan and was the head of a car company. But he was born in Mexico ... and, uh, had he been born of, uh, Mexican parents, I'd have a better shot at winning this," Romney said. "But he was unfortunately born to Americans living in Mexico. ... I mean I say that jokingly, but it would be helpful to be Latino."

In a separate video, Romney talks about his success. "Both my dad and [wife] Ann's dad did quite well in their lives. But when they came to the end of their lives and passed along the inheritance to Ann and me, we both decided to give it all away. So I have inherited nothing. Everything that Ann and I have, we earned the old-fashioned way."

Romney's parents did pay for his boarding school, his college, his graduate school and his first home.

He got closer to the truth in another clip. "There's a perception that all of you were born with a silver spoon. You know, you never had to earn anything and so forth," Romney said to the donors. "Frankly, I was born with a silver spoon, which is the greatest gift you can have -- which is to get born in America."

This story was updated to add context from a fuller version of the video posted by Mother Jones, and to add a response from the Romney campaign.

Mitt Romney, get this through your thick noggin! We are all Americans. We love this country just as much as you and your supporters. The Democratic Party nor the Republican Party owns "freedom" or "liberty". We're not tax dodging losers like you claim! We're not dependent on the government as you claim! The American people who support President Barack Obama do pay their taxes! I don't know where the heck you got your information, but based on this comment and many others, I can say this with no remorse: You're done! You're a total asshole and you'll never be President Of The United States!

One Obama Hug Sparks Boycott Of Pizza Shop!

A Huge Hug Pisses Off Conservatives.

You realize that this is going to be likely victory for Barack Obama. This type of nonsense is allowed when an all out hatred of a person they'll never meet in their sad pathetic lives. When a person supports President Barack Obama, expect them to get shuffled around by these conservative agitators. Death threats by the disturbed and boycott of businesses.

This is coming from Gawker and Complex Magazine online.

Scott Van Duzer became a pop culture phenomenon when he gave President Obama the ultimate bear-hug last week at his Florida pizza shop, and now he's facing absurd backlash from local Republicans who are threatening to boycott the place, all because he showed the President some love. The most absurd part of this whole mess is that Van Duzer is a Republican himself. Apparently, he's a traitor and poor businessman now.

Obama paid Van Duzer a visit because he was impressed with the man's charity work. Van Duzer was aware of the President's arrival, but lost his composure as soon as he saw him. See, even proud Republicans get starstruck at the sight of the POTUS. Bitter Republicans retreated to Yelp to criticize the hug, saying it would hurt his business, but most of those comments have been replaced by overwhelmingly positive reviews.

Come one folks, your pizza isn't tainted because the shop owner hugged the President.

No More Mr. Nice Guy!

The most pathetic candidate running for president still could win this election.

Fuel prices are above $4.00 a gallon once again. Inflation and a bad drought has food prices soaring. The unemployment rate is still over 8%. The conflict in Afghanistan, Israel and the remaining Middle East appears to be on the verge of a diplomatic collapse. A dragging on European financial crisis could impact banks and loans at home. Partisanship has Congress in gridlock, delaying important votes.

Yet, former governor Mitt Romney the perennial candidate for president isn't ahead in the polls. He is struggling. Desperation is in the air and yes, it's there!

Three crucial states, Virginia, Ohio and Florida. These are the states that are swinging back into Barack Obama's corner. The president is enjoying a huge single digit lead in these states. I mean what happen to the Republican nominee?

First things first. Mitt Romney didn't make himself look good on Wednesday when he blasted the president for the U.S. Embassy attacks in Egypt and Libya. Romney got ahead of himself in a crucial test of leadership.

His diplomatic flub adds to the disaster in the United Kingdom in which he criticized the country's handling of the Olympics. The conservative leader of the United Kingdom, Prime Minister David Cameron was kind of weary of his comments.

Romney's Republican National Convention acceptance speech is long forgotten. He failed to mention Afghanistan in his speech and pretty much let another victory slip from his grasp.

His acceptance speech was overshadowed by actor Clint Eastwood and potential 2016 presidential candidate New Jersey governor Chris Christie. Christie admits that it's likely Romney may lose because of his failure to disclose Afghanistan and of course his proposals to fix the economy.

Massachusetts governor Deval Patrick mocked Romney at the Democratic National Convention in which he claimed that Romney only wanted to win so he could taste the position being a president (and of course not do the job that's assigned to him)!

As the commander-and-chief, the president has to not assume anything until the facts are presented and the causes are known.

The Romney Campaign is trying to do damage control after this. While still sticking to his guns on the issue of the economy, Romney is even losing the message on how to fix the economy. President Barack Obama has put forth the message of Mitt Romney being aloof and not concerned about the backbone of the economy, the middle class.

The refusal to release his plans to fix the economy, his tax returns, the talk of his car elevator, the two Cadillacs, the $10,000 bet, and numerous missteps has finally made the message clear. Mitt Romney isn't fit to be the President of the United States.

Now I know a lot of Americans are not satisfied with the economy. The president and U.S. Congress are polling badly when it comes to economy. The public knows that its was George W. Bush's fault for the economic turmoils. They should know that the Republicans are the reason why we're in this mess.

We're in a basic crisis with the Romney Campaign. His supporters and running mate are screwing up as well.

Congressman Paul Ryan (R-Wisconsin) the vice presidential nominee couldn't defend his own voting record when it came to budget cuts that include defense. The defense cuts are something that Mitt Romney opposes as a candidate for president. Ryan distance himself from most of his controversial voting records and his own austerity budget which could undo the safety nets to the economy.

The Drudge Report is trying to find more racially based stories to paint the president bad. They're not working.

Conservatives are upset over Romney's media press pool asking him tough questions about his decision to attack the president. That backfired too! The media press pool is getting tired of Romney ducking and dodging questions that matter to the general public.

Fox News and conservative talk radio is getting fed up with Mitt Romney not taking on the president harder.

Laura Ingraham, Rush Limbaugh, George Will, Peggy Noonan, Ann Coulter, Bill Kristol, and Joe Scarborough have went hard on Mitt Romney. They've all but let him know that he's going to hurt the Republican Party's chances at the presidency and their recapture of the U.S. Senate.

Don't let Romney's slip ups become a distraction. He has a slight advantage in this election. This election isn't over. President Barack Obama is still embattled and he can lose this election.

While Romney's mistakes are taken seriously by those who follow politics to the fullest, the average voter isn't concerned about this. These are ones who don't watch cable news and more likely to worry more about kitchen table issues (i.e. independents) are likely to dismiss this.

Romney leads in the independents.

The president got his groove back, but will this groove get his dispirited supporters back to the polls?

Rush Limbaugh: End Of Days If They Elect Obama!

The end of days if they lose! Conservatives are expressing panic! They fear the Romney/Ryan Ticket is going to lose to the Obama/Biden ticket. President Barack Obama is leading in national polls after weeks of being in practically a tie.

Now you know how desperate the conservative media is, right? If you're not aware of this, then you're out of the loop. Fox News, The Drudge Report, The Daily Caller, The Blaze, Breitbart News, conservative talk radio, and the politicos around Washington are getting the feeling that their sworn enemy Barack Obama is winning the battle for the White House.

Listen to how they're predicting the end of days if they reelect Barack Obama for president. The Republicans and their conservative allies are anxious about the state of this election. The state of Ohio is leaning towards the president and Mitt Romney's campaign is starting to panic.

The Democratic Party outraised the Republican Party for the first time in three months. The post convention bump is doing President Barack Obama well.

The big voice on the right has finally snapped. He's really fearing the end of days if the American public reelects the president.

Justified outrage is aimed at Mitt Romney. Earlier this year, Rush Limbaugh declared that Mitt Romney isn't a conservative. He stated that Romney's endorsement of healthcare reform and his stance on social issues like abortion has sealed his deal as a lackluster candidate.

Romney declared that he's a "seriously conservative" candidate. Rush Limbaugh was frustrated with Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich, and Rick Perry. He felt that their attacks on Rick Santorum, Michele Bachmann and Herman Cain were giveaway to President Barack Obama.

Limbaugh kind of admits that the 2012 Republicans candidates were weak! He knew each of them had serious flaws. Limbaugh would rather have one of them than the president, though.

He didn't endorse the candidates for the 2012 Republican primaries.

Now that the president's getting his groove back, the conservatives are trying to rehash Ronald Reagan again! They're trying to compare this to failed Democratic candidates, former president Jimmy Carter, Michael Dukakis and Walter Mondale as an excuse to undermine the president's rise in the national polls.

Not since John F. Kennedy, has a candidate from Massachusetts ever won the presidency.

A Little Bounce In His Step!

The bounce is here. An owner of a Flordia pizzeria gives President Barack Obama a lift!

President Barack Obama got a good bump in the Gallup Poll.

As predicted the president managed to get above the watermark of 50% in his job approval. The conservatives are trying to rehash the Ronald Reagan legacy yet again to undermine the president's rise in the polls. The Drudge Report and The Gateway Pundit, are bitter about Mitt Romney not getting the bounce after his acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention.

This race is a toss up and leans likely for President Obama. The pollsters are conceding that Mitt Romney's speech in which he forgotten to mention the ongoing war in Afghanistan and his inability to lay out a proper economic plan didn't do him any good. The Republican nominee's running mate Congressman Paul Ryan (R-Wisconsin) hasn't done any better. He works his self into a pretzel over his failed legislation and his role in defense cuts that he's denying he's voted for.

Mitt Romney goes on Meet The Press and practically put his big foot in his mouth once again when the host David Gregory asked him about his policies.

This post convention bump will fall back soon. The high gasoline prices, the unemployment numbers and of course the return of the U.S. Congress will hit the president where it hurts! The voters matter!

The debates will begin in October.

As of today by electoral college standings, President Barack Obama 247 and Mitt Romney 191.

If President Barack Obama wins Ohio or Florida, it's over! The president laid out groundwork for an election victory in which he can lose Ohio and Florida and yet still win.

The state I reside in is Ohio. The state is a most important of all elections. This state can make or break a candidate. The incumbents Jimmy Carter and George H.W. Bush both lost the state of Ohio.

They were elected to be the president when they carried Ohio, but went on to lost the state in their reelection  bid. Therefore they've lost the election.

The most present day presidents.

Jimmy Carter beats incumbent Gerald Ford in 1976 with 297 over 240 (Carter carried Florida and Ohio).

Ronald Reagan beats incumbent Jimmy Carter in 1980 with 489 over 49 (Reagan carried Florida and Ohio).

Ronald Reagan won reelection against Walter Mondale in 1984 with 525 over 13 (Reagan carried Florida and Ohio).

George H.W. Bush beats Michael Dukakis in 1988 with 426 over 111 (Bush carried Florida and Ohio).

Bill Clinton beats George H.W. Bush in 1992 with 370 over 168 (Clinton lost Florida but carried Ohio).

Bill Clinton won reelection against Bob Dole in 1996 with 379 over 159 (Clinton carried Florida and Ohio).

George W. Bush beats Al Gore in 2000 with 271 over 266 (Bush carried Florida and Ohio)*.

George W. Bush won reelection over John Kerry in 2004 with 286 over 251 (Bush carried Florida and Ohio).

Barack Obama beats John McCain in 2008 with 365 over 173 (Obama carried Florida and Ohio).

Before I go, I want to share an opportunity to explain why Mitt Romney can't win. For starters, this guy can't deliver a message that reasons with the American people. David Gregory gave Mitt Romney the softball interview on Meet The Press and yet this guy couldn't even answer a simple question without throwing a word salad together with a side of Obama name drops.

ZERO! ROMNEY: NO BLACK SUPPORT!

No kidding. Black voters aren't supporting Mitt Romney.

According to the NBC/Wall Street Journal Poll, the Romney/Ryan ticket has finally cracked a milestone. They have managed to keep less than 2% of African American vote. To make this clear, Mitt Romney has zero support from the Black community.

That's not good. President Barack Obama has 94% of the support with 6% undecided.

So I am guessing that Jesse Lee Peterson, Angela McGlowan, Congressman Tim Scott (R-South Carolina), Congressman Allen West (R-Florida), and many Black Republicans cover only .0001% of the Black vote.

No, it's not about racism. It's about Mitt Romney not appealing to voters on issues that affect the Black community.

So don't bother us about the overwhelming support of President Barack Obama. Why the Black community isn't into the Republican Party?

And don't try to rehash that false argument that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a Republican. You may lose more support.

Ex-GOP Member: Yeah, They're Trying To Suppress Minority Voters!

Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania went to Barack Obama in the 2008 U.S. Presidential Elections. Four years later, Republicans ceased control of Ohio and Pennsylvania, retained hold on Florida. Other states carried by Barack Obama included New Jersey, Iowa, Virginia, New Mexico, Michigan, and Wisconsin. Each now holds a Republican governor.

Now Republican governors are plotting to keep the Blacks and Hispanics/Latinos from the polling stations.

A Florida ex-Republican under fire, is going to spill the beans about the plot to keep minority voters away from the polls. In a election where only 7% of the registered voters matter, a few minority votes could tip the scale for President Barack Obama. The Republicans want to keep this from happening.

So what do the Republican Party do? Call up their good buddies over at Fox News and The Drudge Report!

The Republicans and their conservative allies would love to make the case of voter intimidation by those scary Black Panthers holding batons. Get on the bullhorn about those poor Kentuckian voters buying up votes with liquor and chicken feed. Talk about Attorney General Eric Holder and the Justice Department committing a crime by withholding information to Fast & Furious. Making the case to have Holder removed as Attorney General. The Republicans are voting on legislation to impeach him and President Barack Obama.

Republican legislators work hard to pass voter identification laws that requires voters to present driver's licenses or proof of identification to vote. The legislation to impose restrictive photo ID requirements has been prepared by the conservative organization ALEC and circulated to conservative state legislators. The work hard to purge registered voters off the ballots. If you've voted once in four years, Republicans think you're dead so you don't exist. You don't vote!

According to the Tampa Bay Times, reporter Lucy Morgan interviews Jim Greer, the former Florida Republican chairman who is under investigation for corruption and fraud.

Jim Greer admits that his criticism of President Barack Obama is an act. Greer was told to criticized the president in order to make White voters pessimistic.

                         

Jim Greer denounces Florida Republican Party officials as liars, 'right-wing crazies' in deposition

TALLAHASSEE — In a wide-ranging deposition that spanned two days in late May, former Florida Republican Party chairman Jim Greer denounced some party officials as liars and "whack-a-do, right-wing crazies'' as he described turmoil in the months before his resignation.

Greer said some GOP leaders were meeting to discuss ways they could suppress black votes while others were constantly scheming against each other.

He blamed criminal fraud charges filed against him in 2010 on legislative leaders and other party officials who he says orchestrated an investigation by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement and the statewide grand jury to avoid paying him money he was due.

His statements were in response to questions from lawyers for the party, Senate President Mike Haridopolos and Sen. John Thrasher. Greer has filed a lawsuit against the party and the two officials in an attempt to collect $130,000 he was promised in a written agreement shortly before he resigned. The lawsuit, pending in Leon County, is unlikely to be resolved until after a criminal trial scheduled for mid November.

Jim Greer, the former Republican chairman from Florida admits that his party is trying to keep minorities from voting.

Copies of the 630-page deposition and other documents were released by statewide prosecutors Wednesday.

Greer's testimony offers a window into the level of animosity that exists between Greer and the party he once ran.

• Greer said "the party was in turmoil" as officials wanted to get rid of him and former Gov. Charlie Crist because they disagreed with some of Crist's decisions, including the appointment of a liberal African-American judge to the Florida Supreme Court, Crist's endorsement of John McCain for president in 2008 and the hug Crist gave President Barack Obama in 2009. "My phone lit up with people wanting me to censure the governor,'' Greer said. "The tea party came into existence. There was a feeling within the party that the tea party was just a bunch of whack-a-dos."

• After the party's budget and audit committee started asking questions about House and Senate spending, including legislators who used party credit cards for personal expenses, Greer said he wanted to open the books and credit card records, but party officials and legislative leaders vetoed the idea.

• Greer said he warned others at the party that the budget committee was made up of "whack-a-do, right-wing crazies'' who were trying to take over because of continuing disagreements with Crist and legislative leaders. House and Senate leaders insisted that no one at the party could control their campaign finances. "We eat what we kill,'' Greer said the leaders told him. "Legislative leaders were using their party credit cards like drunken sailors and they made it clear to me I was not to interfere with their spending,'' Greer said.

Thrasher, who succeeded Greer as party chairman, called Greer's suggestion of voter suppression and other accusations "absurd, absolutely absurd'' and said Greer is making "baseless accusations on other people in an effort to divert attention from himself.''

Thrasher said party officials had no choice but to get rid of Greer once they discovered he had secretly created a company that was getting money from the party.

Many of the questions posed to Greer were about his creation of Victory Strategies LLC, a company that collected almost $200,000 from the party while he was running it. The criminal charges stem from that contract.

Greer's animosity was evident on almost every page of the deposition as he described the inner workings of a party that has controlled Florida since 1998.

On voter suppression, Greer said he had just completed a December 2009 meeting with party general counsel Jason Gonzalez, political consultant Jim Rimes and Eric Eikenberg, Crist's chief of staff, when questions arose about fundraising.

"I was upset because the political consultants and staff were talking about voter suppression and keeping blacks from voting. It had been one of those days,'' he said.

Rimes said he recalls no discussion of suppressing votes at any meeting. Eikenberg did not return phone calls.

Greer said party officials were questioning spending on fundraising trips to New York, Yankees games, limos, expensive cigars and other items when Gonzalez asked him if he had any ownership in Victory Strategies. Greer said he initially denied owning any interest in the company but later admitted it when he and Gonzalez were alone. Gonzalez told state investigators that Greer did not own up to his involvement in the business and threatened to sue anyone who made the accusation. A number of other party officials told state investigators they were unaware of Greer's involvement in the company. Contacted this week, Gonzalez said he could not publicly discuss the case.

Asked about his failure to tell other officials, Greer said they didn't ask.

Asked if he told party finance chairman John Rood, a Jacksonville businessman, Greer said Rood was "basically useless as finance chairman.''

By late December 2009, Greer found himself under pressure to resign. He said he agreed to leave for the "betterment of the party'' and in January 2010 signed a severance agreement that was to pay him the rest of his $130,000 for the year.

Greer said he got concerned when Haridopolos and Thrasher, who had both signed the agreement, began to publicly deny knowledge of it. Haridopolos later admitted signing it, insisting he had not read it.

"Around the party most people considered President Haridopolos to be not the brightest person, but I would assume he would have read the agreement before he signed it,'' Greer said.

Greer had good words only for House Speaker Dean Cannon, saying the Orlando Republican tried to get others to live up to the severance agreement and promised to help him find a lobbying job and clients.

After others at the party refused to honor the severance agreement, Greer said Cannon and Haridopolos contacted his friend Jim Stelling to say that political consultants Pat Bainter and Marc Reicheldfer were going to pay Greer $200,000.

Despite promises of payment and a request from Bainter for information on where to wire the money, none was ever paid, Greer said. After he left the party, Greer said he heard that Thrasher was telling people they were going to have him arrested. A short time later, Greer was indicted by a statewide grand jury on charges of money laundering and fraud.

The charges and the party's failure to pay him have ruined his life, Greer said.

"They took everything I worked for my whole life,'' he added. Now his family is on food stamps, some of his possessions have been repossessed and his children watched their father being arrested.

"Any good thing I did at the Republican Party has been destroyed by these people,'' he said. "I want my life back. I want them to say they are sorry for what they did to me.''
