Evidence the overwhelming turnout in support of Chick-fil-a.
Evidence the support for Starbucks "local laws" gun policy back in April.
Evidence the tea-party-backed Congressional rout in November 2010
Evidence the continued winning record of tea-party-backed candidates in the primaries.
Thinking people are angry. Many will come out and vote that normally don't bother.
We The People are realizing that not-voting has brought them to this place.
Obama's loss will be wide enough to be shocking. The media will blame it on racism.
You heard it here first.
I'm really starting to think you are right. I think the left is AFRAID. They've got NOTHING on Mr. Romney worth anything...that's why they are now at the stage of making it up as they go along. And they count on the bulk of the media, Foxnews included, to run this stuff for them. Yep, fear...that's what that is coming out of the left...FEAR...and the more I see of it, the happier I get...NOBAMA, 2012!
Here's the real reason Obama will lose...
In 2008 Obama won for 2 reasons. George Bush and Racism.
George Bush was the focal point (rightly or wrongly, I'm not commenting on GB-II policy here) for everything people perceived as "wrong". The War, The Economy, Global Warming, you name it. The Left successfully blamed him, and thus the GOP, for all our ills. GB's inability to make a speech without looking like a hick didn't do him any favors.
Racism played into 2010 in a reverse way. What many people saw in Obama was a well-educated, well-spoken black man. A man they could vote for to prove to the world that they (the voter) were not a racist.
Both of those reasons are gone. Bush is a memory, and since "I've already proven I'm not a racist by voting for Obama in 2008" I don't have to make that mistake again.
Obama will lose. It won't be close. People are angry and, I pray, smart enough to see the news and realize that "Hope and Division" is not a real solution. It's Romney's to lose.
