Absolutely. The minute he gets into the White House businesses who have been hording cash due to the current administration will begin to hire and invest again. There is no good candidate but we cannot have these companies wait another four years because the 47% will then become 60%?

I wonder how many voters feel that Romney was refering to themselves or someone else. I bet that most people think he was talking about someone else.

Not sure how anyone can support this guy. This has nothing to do with liking or hating obama. It would not be far fetched to believe that major corps are not hiring and hording cash til after the election. For the sole purpose of getting a republican into office.
Even someone that has conservative values, it shocks me to think one would s
upport a candidate that thinks like this... that would lower epa standards just ro increase a company's bottom line...

Major corporations hire based on need, not politics, nor do they hire based on how much money that have. Major corporations will win whether Obama wins or if Romney wins. They always do. What's happening is that small businesses are not hiring because they don't know what to expect in taxes and regulations, especially those that are associated with Obamacare. What drives hiring is increaed demand for a company's products or services. As long as there are so many people without jobs, or working for less money, or working now, but not sure about the future, demand for products and services will not improve. I think Romney will be better for small business and that should help spark the economy.

I thought it was even more outrageous when he denigrated those working class folks who "cling to their guns and religion." So elitist. Typical Harvard grad....

Mitt Romney was speaking the truth. This is another attempt by the left to
take the attention off the crisis in the Middle East, Obama is a total failure.
The media is so in the tank for Obama, its pathetic. Obama has divided this
country more in the last 4 years. He has done absolutely nothing to revive this economy. He wants more people to be dependent on the government . Can't stand the sight of him. How people could be duped by this farce is beyond me.

Mitt Romney was speaking the truth. This is another attempt by the left to smear him. Obama has done nothing to revive this economy. The man is a total failure.
The media is so in the tank for Obama its pathetic. Another attack on Romney to
take the attention away from the crisis in the Middle East which this administration
has profoundly lied to the American people about once again. Those attacks were
not spontaneous, it was a deliberate terrorist attack to coincide with 9/ll. This administration is a disgrace. Failure on all fronts, economic, foreign policy, total mayhem from an incapable, inexperienced leader.

Thanks for blocking my posts. This is real fair & balanced here...........

It is really this simple, if you are a white male making +$250K/year, I can understand your fiscal persuasion to vote for Romney. There is no moral/ethical reason to vote for the RepubliCON party, they have been manipulating the ignorant, knee-jerk Christian contingent for years. If you are not a white male making +$250K/year, you are either part of the ignorant, knee-jerk Christian contingent or you are completely and utterly misguided.

Hey readers, just so everybody knows, the comments for this article are on moderation. That means they will appear (unless they violate our terms of use) but it might not be right away. Don't worry, we'll get to them, so don't feel the need to submit your comments multiple times. Thank you!

When Romney tells the truth, the mainstream media crucify him. When Obama tells an un-truth, the media either ignores it, or tries to validate it. I never thought I'd live to see the sheeple so ignorant, and so trusting of the 4th estate.

Here is what I know.
1. Wages are lower than 2008
2. Gas prices up
3. Unemployment up
4. Food stamp recipients went from 31 million to 47 million under Obama
5. Debt up from $10 trillion to $16 trillion under Obama
6. College tuition exploding despite the economy (Why?)
7. Religious tenants are trampled by ObamaCare. I wonder how the horde attacking our Embassies will react to being ordered to ignore their beliefs by the American government?
8. The flag of al-Qaeda flies over an American Embassy.

I don't want 4 more months of this let alone 4 years

Romney is speaking the truth BOEING-GE-GE PHILLIPS who have a tanker named after Condel. Rice and EXXON do not pay taxes but get generous handouts their combined profits dwarf the NATIONAL DEBT and CHINA's trade deficit, check out the Honeywell corp in FREE PORT iLL where Bain (Twit) has the workers losing their jobs training their CHINESE Rreplacements,TWIT the MORMON MISSIONARY the YIDDISH JEW pimp of MACAU and the KOCH POISONER POLLUTERS use the GUNS and BAPTISTS OBAMA talked about to return us to the good ole days of slavery and child labor and the TPARTY does care right!

Maybe this will help you see what a hypocrite Mitt is
We have his mother telling how her husband George Romney collected welfare when he was a young man returning from Mexico.

hey ostrich Blah
wages are down except for the do nothing congress who get paid to filibuster and pass a daily anti abortion bill.
u TPARTY KNOW NOTHINGS are still peddling the GAS PRICE misinfo u think everyone is a village idiot from Fla the price of Gas is at the same price when President OBAMA took office.
The economy despite the political ostriches and GROVER TPARTY TRAITORS IN 3.5 yr's created more than 4 million jobs that Bush and Cheney were hemorrhaging at 800, 000 a month
The debt is all at the door of Bushes unfunded Wars part D and the Bush tax cuts and the Stimulus that stopped the depression
the cost of education is because they need to speak Chinese how bout the Tparty objecting to the elimination of banksters for student LOANS ?
The only religious being trampled by ACA are the medicare thieves like the MEDICARE CROOK aka Governor of FLA who paid 400,000 of stolen money as a fine for his looting the BAPTISTS clinics and hospitals of FLA and turned the looting over to the family while he purges the DEM OLD and YOUNG and VETS of FLA while giving the DESCENDENTS of the boat people who are FORMER Batista secret police and military with a mix of CUBAN MENTAL -CRIMINAL escapees jobs in GOP TPARTY .con't

Ostrich Blah In 1980 THE Iranian FLAG was flying over the US EMBASSY for months until the Alzheimer Pres was elected immediately it was normal except only HELLIBURTON was allowed to do business with the mullahs and did from then to now servicing the Persian oil platforms. ,yer sources of NEWS by the oxy drugster can be expected if we are in MONTGOMERY ALA or MACON GA but we have a more diverse media here come out of the sand

ostriches today 4 of your own TPARTY SENATORS killed a VET'S JOB BILL these are some of the best of the 47% or more correctly the true and real 1% of the population, they are being paid back by the only scum who are benefiting from the Terror -Oil and Netanyahu wars the KOCH'S, ADELMANS and NEO AEI AIPAC traitors they have been doing this for a long time having us fight their wars while waging espionage against us and yearly try to pardon the spy Pollard they sunk the USN liberty A UNARMED ship and killed dozens of our sailors killed in the early wars for TERROR-OIL and the NETANYAHOOS which has been raging since before Desert Storm and not in the past 10 years nor ended with Dubya's shock-awe,MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.
CON'T

No decent Tparty tax and or war dodger like TWIT and his 5 sons who get 20 miilion a year for life and will pay no taxes frankly give a damn.
They are the real deal dynastic MORMON CULT ROYALTY began by TWIT not GEORGE who is a American hero.
TWIT is SHAMELESS and CLUELESS as are his offspring there is a local T Party congressman who is silent on the subject he was supposedly a AF vet he like his fellow scumbags do not want the real 1% to get a chance in life after their multiple tours these TPARTY are not only dupes of the Red Army chief lobbyist DICK ARMEE they are proud of it all of them are traitors read the constitution we do not pledge allegiance to GROVER-the KOCH poisoners or a MACAU VICE LORD

yep me and Jr the diff is he is trying to tough it out till Nov I am a 47% without a 2 million dollar second home or a elevator for the pickup and Ann's Caddy's,
did TWIT REALLY say he won't round up and deport illegals or is self deport still a option? That was yesterday and today where he actually bronzed himself like BONER he is BONDING with the descendents of the boat people and the swift boaters.
Do u think any OSTRICH ever checked or looked into the Mormons manifest dynasty where TWIT is the fulfillment of the WHITE HORSE PROPHESY it's better than Sci Fi but difficult for low and know info voters to check out , M
Glenn Beck CK and ORRIN HATCH TWO LDS but not the biggest one HARRY reid. of the Mormon cult with his Mormon TURNED Catholic again Marco Rubio, this is their manifest dynasty

TWIT'S dynasty according to the LDS is on his own Planet not this one so why is he wasting time here? Good question for JAY or DAVE TO ASK GODDESS ANN NEXT WEEK.

Here is how MOBY (a success story from the ground up) feels about Mitt's 47% assumption:
http://www.moby.com/journal/2012-09-19/ok-i-think-i-figured-it-out-mitt-romney.html#.UFuG8K5vaSo

The battle for our SSA MEDICARE will resume Ias soon as the election is over make sure your TPARTY and absentee REP'S OF THE PEOPLES HOUSE do not sacrifice any of our SSA MEDICARE TO THE TPARTY and their WALL STREET hucksters who are already laying the groundwork for privatization since the 2nd DIST is not represented call the WH and tell them do not sacrifice SSA MEDICARE to the cutters, SSA AND MEDICARE HAVE NOT CONTRIBUTED TO THE DEFICIT AT ALL NOT EVEN 00001%.

In a 05 address to the Atlas Society Congressman Lyin told the Ayn Rand devotees it was time to get behind John Galt (one or both of the Koch Bros and the other heroes of the anti collectivist movement the 0,1&) Twit and Lyin supporters Cargill, Monsanto Exxon Boeing Koch Industries CEO and chairmen the first step in abolishing anti capitalist aka slacker dependency on big brother privatize SSA and Medicare for the investor class the same BUSHEVIK scheme.
Apparently or maybe he did tell mommy who was the featured prop at the gathering of Governor Scott useful idiots residents and mostly Seniors who want Obama out of their Medicare the gathering at the Villages in Fla after the nomination had a banner that read "Protect and Strengthen Medicare"

Oh my dear Deb are u OBVIOUSLY a resident of the FLA or ILLINOIS VILLAGES who gets their info and news from a HILLBILLY HEROIN abuser or simply worried about losing yer 2 million a year for life I do not think u would be blogging if it were 20, save yer leftovers and treats for the TPARTY MEETINGS i AM STUCK with all u Bloggers on the Koch Bros poisoned Planet while the Mormon Divine Bishop and draft dodger flag waver gets to go to his homeland beyond Draco after his 4 years is complete leaving us to the mercy of the MACAU vice lords and KOCH Bros polluters!
Was it in the LINCOLN bedroom where the President of the USA slept with the MUSLIM BRO-HOOD? Golly this is the same bedroom where the Cheney's male hooker reporter slept with the lez daughter and the rest is??
LET'S TALK ABOUT TPARTY and VET'S CARE - PTSD and FLAG WAVERS for awhile what ta ya say? Now that we know TWIT is paying some of his BAIN INCOME TAXES WHEN DO U THINK WE WILL GET THE CAYMAN SWISS -IRISH AND LUXEMBOURG INVESTMENTS as for the wimp factor have u ever seen a more BUTCH acting humanoid than TWIT let's get serious how many DRONE STRIKES does it take to satisfy yer NETANYAHU BLOOD LUST?

Romney is pretty much on-target - the something-for-nothing people are all in the tank for 0bama and there's not much he can do about that - the race is still, as it has been since late spring, just about at 47% 0bama - 47% Romney - 6% undecided/don't care and that may not change right up until election day.

I should add that the fix is in for 0bama here in Illinois so our opinions matter very little at the presidential level.

Bob u are so insightful, the military-college kids-old timers who think they are1% or the TPARTY voters those who are senile and the village idiots and those that understand what MEDICARE is and almost all of the NRA Billy Bob's making min wage who are lifelong GOP-TPARTY Fundy's are included and could care less if they are insulted, lied to as long as the liars are good ole boys and Christians and now MORMONS!
good thing too for the president Illinois is in, Fla-Pa-OH-Mich-Colorado and LYIN'S Wis are trying to do what SC-ALA-MISS-TEX OK have done put the fix in for the Plutocrat and his Oligarch Vice Lords and poisoner polluter the BROS KOCH,
funny thing about the fix being in for a candidate in his home state TWIT is losing MASS so bad the TPARTY Senator is running from him,
!

Imagine that TWIT the CHINESE COMMIE PARTNER of the Red Army who also has the sole MACAU CHINA vice lord as a partner who has poured 70 MILLION so far into the campaign and another 70 MILLION coming along with hundreds of millions more from Cheney and Exxon energy advisors to buy this election.
These are the bosses of DUBYA RANGERS and Pioneers, this wannabe CIC is in partnership with the Red Army developing the IRANIAN gas fields and is going all out with the equally slimy NETANYAHU SCUM in threatening the Iranians yeah Cheney is sweating blood, none of the nit wit TParty village idiots who do not have Demetia have a problem that his partners have put poison in our toothpaste pet's food medicines and kids toys and beds for starters and then talks about socialism in the ER.
,

Twit is Mc SLIME's REVENGE on the T PARTY, who else knew?
There is way to much TWIT and Lyin info to fit into 150,000 characters never mind 150 this guy if the tparty manage to steal every results of 47 States and purge 100 million voters who in their right mind will fly if he is in charge of the FAA,? This genius took 6 million from Calif hi rollers after he wondered in a interview why they did not have roll down windows on goddess, Ann's Lear Jet!
Did he go to Liberty U or BYU with Akin the OBGYN?
The best DEBATE Twit could have will be with MITT his position on every issue starting with health care, women's issues Latin's in FLA or ARIZONA, student loans tax reform and the devils in the details sure makes sense to the TPARTY and BILL O remember the time in the debates Huntsman called him a well oiled weather vane, but we have plenty of TPARTY intellectual critical thinker to tell us what the winner meant after they hear it from the HILLBILLY HEROIN KING.
The TPARTY are not discouraged they are going to put thousands of POLL watchers or vote stealer s in thousands of pct's nationwide but it matters not he is in trouble most of them will vote for RON PAUL
