Why George W. Bush Will Decide the Election

Peter Beinart:

"Mitt Romney is not a great candidate;
Barack Obama is a better one.
But without the Bush legacy, Romney would be leading this race.
His problem is that except among staunch conservatives, Bush has so hurt the GOP's brand that Romney doesn't look like the fresh economic fix-it man that Republicans want to portray him as.
Instead, it's all too easy for Democrats to paint him as George W. Bush the 3rd, just as they painted John McCain as George W. Bush the 2nd."

"Romney has tried to handle the Bush legacy the same way McCain did:
by ignoring it.
When Republicans convened in late August in Tampa, as in Minneapolis in 2008, Bush was not there.
But in campaigns, ignoring your weaknesses rarely makes them go away.
While at their convention Republicans tried to pretend that the Bush presidency never happened, the Obama campaign handed Bill Clinton the microphone and allowed him to define the race as Obama-Clinton versus Romney-Bush.
The GOP, in Clinton's narrative, creates economic messes.
Democrats clean them up."

dear Lord,
questo Dumbass di Georgedabliu ha fatto più danni delle cavallette...

finalmente ho capito che GOP vuol dire grand old party... e si riferisce ai repubblicani.... beata ignoranza.

hai voglia ad ignorare i governi bush per fare campagna elettorale!!! come fa la gente a dimenticarseli? anche se non ne parlano i disastri sono tutti lì .... evidenti
in america l'eco della impresentabilità è più lunga ...da noi si dissolve rapidamente.
'tacci sua !!!

ok.
ora si fa un passetto avanti.
.
in "slang" democratico il partito dei Repubblicani è definito GOOP
(con una "O" in più)
che sta per:
Greedy (famelico)
Obnoxious (obnubilato)
Offensive (offensivo)
Party (partito)


e i fanatici che lo sostengono
(a cominciare dai quei deficenti-fascisti-razzisti dei Tea-Party)
vengono definiti ,di conseguenza:
GOOPERS

One minute of silence for the people who died on Sept. 11, 2001 please.

then...

Obama Gets Substantial Bounce from the Convention .
Five polls released yesterday show Obama with leads nationally.
However, convention bounces rarely are permanent and are unlikely to last in the face of a massive ad blitz that will attack everything related to him,
from his health-care law to the color of Michelle's shoes.
Here are the polls.

Pollster Obama Romney Spread
ABC/WaPo 49% 48% Obama +1%
Gallup 49% 44% Obama +5%
Op.Research 52% 46% Obama +6%
Rasmussen 50% 45% Obama +5%
TIPP 46% 44% Obama +2%

Obama Surges in Three Key Swing States

New Wall Street Journal/NBC News/Marist polls
show President Obama building leads over Mitt Romney in Ohio, Florida and Virginia among likely voters.

Florida: Obama 49%, Romney 44%

Ohio: Obama 50%, Romney 43%

Virginia: Obama 49%, Romney 44%

"These states
- all of which Obama carried in 2008 but which George W. Bush won in 2004 -
represent three of the most crucial battlegrounds in the 2012 presidential election.
And according to NBC's electoral map,
Romney likely needs to capture at least two of these states,
if not all three,
to secure the 270 electoral votes necessary to win the presidency."

Politico reports the numbers in Ohio "roughly match up with internal surveys conducted by both Democrats and Republicans recently."

GOP Poll Shows Obama Leading in Ohio




Politico obtained an internal Republican poll which shows President Obama leading Romney by four points in Ohio.

"The numbers underline Romney's longstanding problems in Ohio, where he's taken a beating from Obama's campaign and liberal groups.
But it's actually a sign of the depth of Romney's hole in the state that the results were greeted favorably by Republicans.
Polling in Ohio before the conventions last month showed Romney with an even larger deficit, closer to double-digits."

double-digits means : a due cifre ?

Amadeus ha scritto:double-digits means : a due cifre ?

esatto.
quando il vantaggio di un candidato supera il 10% loro lo indicano come "double-digits"

il job approval di Obama ha raggiunto il 50%.

si tratta del punto più alto che il presidente ha toccato dall'ottobre 2010.

Obama Mantains Lead in Virginia

A new Public Policy Polling survey in Virginia finds President Obama leading Mitt Romney by five points, 51% to 46%.

When third party candidates are included, Obama leads Romney 49% to 45% with Gary Johnson at 2% and Virgil Goode and Jill Stein both at just 1%.

Key findings:
"Virginia continues to look like it may be something of a firewall state for Obama.
PPP has now polled it 9 times this cycle, and President Obama has led by at least 4 points on all 9 of the polls.
He's been ahead by 5 points, 5 points, 8 points, and 8 points over the course of the four surveys we've conducted in 2012."

******************************

la Virginia è uno degli "swing states" che Romney dovrebbe assolutamente conquistare per battere Obama.

al contrario,
Obama potrebbe permettersi di perdere sia Virginia che Florida che North Carolina e raggiungere ugualmente i 270 EV necessari per vincere.
