(14,572 posts)that EVERY TIME the secondary option started to get some momentum, he would just lambast them on his show.
He never flat out came out and said he was supporting Romney, but from Backman to Pizza Boy, to Nwet to Santorum, when they started to get the lead or make a move, it was like clockwork that he would lambast them in what was a semi-coordinated effort byt he party leaders to try to steer Romney's nomination without having to actually endorse him.

(8,084 posts)he fell in line and started repeating the talking points. this time around he doesn't even seem to want to pretend. I believe this is Joe's way of hoping Obama wins a second term.

(276 posts)When you can not articulate a coherent reason to vote for you, you will lose. Candidates need to be specific about their policies. Mitt does not want to do that because his proposals would decimate the middle class and poor, but give large tax breaks to his wealthy friends.
They can't just come out and say full out what they want to do, and have been callously hoping that the economy would be so bad that just running around screaming Obama sucks would let them slip in to do their damage.
GOTTA HOLD THE SENATE!

(1,364 posts)In a rural county in Upstate NY and we had a Republic Primary for state senator yesterday. I (D) sat with the head inspector (R) all day and she had some interesting things to say. One, she is NOT voting for Rmoney, hates his ass because none of his 5 spawn have served in the military, which she blamed on his Mormonism. Said, they (Mormons) never serve the country, but only their own interests. She even argued with another old time Republic that the R's along with the Blue Dogs had thwarted everything that Obama had tried to do to help things in this country. I just agreed with her and boosted her beliefs. Her daughter, who also worked and was head inspector of the other district is a D.
As far as Joe Scum, I prefer to call him Dead Intern Joe and NEVER watch his program (or should that be pogrom?), to do so only helps his ratings and puts dollars in his pockets. Right now, I have Bill Press on at Current TV.

Still Dems need to GOTV - maybe the new meme is to make Dems think it's over.

(2,124 posts)The economy still sucks, but the Fed is finally going to act again ...
The more people actually learn about the ACA, the more they like it ...
Romney, even with all the money and organization on his side, continues to be his own worst enemy ...
The Romney campaign is more and more seen to be empty of substance as more and more people inconveniently as for specifics ...
Romney's rhetoric is getting stronger and starting to jump the shark, making him look desperate ...
Congressional Republicans are perceived more and more as obstructionist political gamers instead of statesmen ...
And as in the OP, the media is beginning to settle onto a narrative of a bungling tone deaf asshole vs. the charismatic and serious president ...
Even two months away, the Republican Party elite are starting to face-palm daily.

(31,706 posts)Joey's high horse is gonna need an oxygen mask soon. Now whose fault is the sad state of the "conservatives" these days? Dare to blame us "libruls" and dirty fuckin' hippies? Or them heathen colored or hispanics? Or teh gay? Or uppity wimmen? How about a look in the mirror at your corrupt and inept "philosophy" and party. You...yes YOU...selected a total loser of a candidate who chose to run on your totally debased "plank" of reducing women to second class status, eliminating the middle class and favoring the establishment of a kleptocracy and you wonder why its being rejected?
While it's fun to see all the pearl clutch and angst from Joey and his ilk there is still an election that has to be run and time to get the wind behind our sails and kick a lot of rushpublican ass. Any day that Joey is depressed is a good day for America!

(54,436 posts)All these right-wing fanatics frothing at the mouth, "shooting before they aim," and not just Rolls-Ryan, either.
Someone who is measured in his responses and thinks out his actions before making an idiot of himself and/or his country--now THAT is a conservative approach, and that pretty much describes Obama, so a genuine conservative should be quite happy to see Obama re-elected.
"Conservatives," as defined in Foxese, however, means ignoring truth, shitting upon the underprivileged and glorifying the privileged (and sending someone else's kids to go fight wars you profit from). But that is not the definition of "conservative" in any edition of Webster's dictionary that I ever used as a reference.
Obama's re-election will be depressing for teabaggers, I'll grant him that much. But teabaggers no more resemble conservatives than Louie Gohmert resembles a Rhodes Scholar.

(8,515 posts)What the fuck do real conservatives bring to the table?
Fiscal responsibility? What the hell does that really mean?
Making sure that social safety net programs are further reduced.
Pumping billions more into defense spending?
Reducing the deficit by cutting everything which helps the middle
class. Pell Grants, Consumer Protection Programs? School funding.
reduction of E.P.A programs which are certain to further destroy
are biosphere?
Making sure that free trade agreements continue to destroy our middle class?
Foreign policy which is based on uber nationalistic diplomacy. Shoot first
ask questions later..
I am begging for an answer
My response, create demand....By putting people back to work with job Programs
to fix our fucked up infrastructure .
Somebody please tell me how Joe Scrotum can fix our country?
Again, what the hell can a conservative philosophy do to fix our mess,
