Obama, Romney Making Campaign Swings
September 2, 2012
Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney told supporters Saturday that it is time for America to have a “winning season,” as he promoted his economic agenda during a campaign stop in Ohio.
During a rally in Cincinnati, Romney said if a “coach” is “zero and 23 million,” it is time for a new coach. The figure was a reference to the number of Americans who are unemployed.
Meanwhile, Democrats have begun arriving in Charlotte, NC, for their party’s national convention, which begins this coming week. President Obama campaigned in Iowa on Saturday, one of a string of appearances before joining the convention.
During his pre-recorded weekly address, he focused on foreign policy.
The president marked the second anniversary of the end of the U.S. combat mission in Iraq. He also said progress had been made against Afghanistan’s Taliban, but more difficult work lies ahead.

When President Clinton was in office I had some extra money in my pocket. Since that time I have had 3 pay cuts, no pay raises, and I have the same job. i pay more property taxes, pay more for my drivers license, car tag, insurance, gasoline and everything else. What baffles me is how some of you can blame our economy on the Democrats.
Wow on second thought , the DNC put God and Jerusalem , back in the party platform, only to be booed and hiss at, from the convention floor, just to get votes, Can you get any lower than that? No wonder they moved ever thing in side, think they are afraid of the lighting, Hmmm, It has shown its colors as a Godless platform, My opinion. God does not condone the DNC issues . Read your Bible.
Bob Hudson, Charlie is right you do not have any idea of what you are talking about. That is just my opinion and it appears that it also is Charlies and Nicks. I have searched for some of the things that you quote and can not verify them. It appears that you are the one who disrespects everyone that does not agree with you.
Hey Charlie, good morning, It seems that I upset you. Great! Now as I have said, my post are accurate , Once again, to you it is just misinformation, well that is because you do not agree with it, so I will continue to post as you say, my rates and raves. Don’t like it , don’t read it, And yes I know the differance between Hell, and Hail, I was trying to keep it clean, surly you can catch on to that, By the way the Democratic Party just dropped (GOD) from their 2012 platform, (FACT) guess they really do wish to be politically correct, and liberal as they can be, So now they are the Godless democratic party , no wonder they can endorse killing babies, same sex marriage, and at first did not want christian prayer at their convention . Now that is my opinion. Guess I will have to clear these things up for you. Don’t worry there is more coming from my misinform internet search.
@ Bob Hudson, if you read the other comments on here you will see that I am supporting Governor Romney this election. However you are too busy spouting off that everyone else is wrong to have picked up on that. You are uninformed and your constant rants on here are not helping your cause at all. If you are supporting Romney and against President Obama, good that is your right and I am glad that Romney has your vote. However please stop posting things that are not true. Just because something is on the internet does not make it the truth, Your comment:
Hey I’m still a registered democrat but any moron can see the party has gone to hail in a hand basket, and even though ya’ ll don’t like it we blue dogs are dropping this party. I believe any Moron would no that hell is where you were referring to and hail falls from the sky.
Missed a post, the Islamic prayer was to be held 2 hour before the convention, what they changed their mind about was to ALLOW a christian pray at the end of the convention. Wow, how moral of them, notice I said after, They don’t want prayer to get in the way of their platform to kill children and support same sex marriage.AND now that is my opinion.
Nick, Charlie, Bob, It seems that if any one post against what you think then they are uninformed, my, my, how liberal of you. It seem you are not the one’s using the internet to fully inform your self. But narrow minded people who do not seek the truth are always that way. I have made my suggestions, it is very simple, and no matter how you do it, my results are the same, yet you do not deny the fact you just say it is uninformed. Hey I’m still a registered democrat but any moron can see the party has gone to hail in a hand basket, and even though ya’ ll don’t like it we blue dogs are dropping this party. We are, so I will keep sending out, By your opinion , uninformed information, Seem the one’s that are in constant denial , are the one’s who are misinformed. Have your self a good laugh, watch the DNC.
Bob Hudson you need to get away from your radical TV shows and Internet. They have really messed you up.
Hey Nick, Bob just keeps going on any way. There’s the problem, uninformed people not only can vote they spread fabricated propaganda without seeing if it is the truth or not.
Wow, The democratic party says we do not need I.D. when we vote for a national election, but if you attend the DNC you must have a state issued I.D. Now what is wrong with this picture???
Forgot to add , it was to be 2 hours before the convention open. So no it would not have really happened at the convention, but now we are splitting hairs. Hey it was their Idea.
@ Jim the Islamic prayer thing at the DNC is not true, check it out it never was true.
Check your facts before posting otherwise you will look like Bob Hudson.
@ Jeff I have a problem with the Islamic people, if you will remember 9/11 you might as well.
Love the fact that the largest crowds, Obama has been able to come up with this time around in no more than 14 thousand in on stop and 13 in another. The writing is on the wall. Guess he can go join Occupy protesters, when we relieve him of his duties.
It does not take a mathologist to do the numbers of the crushing debt we have coming at us. Can you liberals even do simple addition? I guess it’s true that the average person can’t get their mind around what a trillion is. I guess they think when the Chinese want their money back, they’ll just say, come and get it. Huh, do you really believe the dems are not equally at fault for the 16 trillion debt we have? People vote with thier wallet, and if I was getting a government check, I guess would be voting for Obama too. :-/
What he really needs to do is cut welfare in half. Take what we save on that and start drug testing every one on medicaid,and welfare . Go thru the system and elimanate any one receiving benefits who is not here legally. Yep I like that plan. Like they use to tell me, If you are not using, then what are you afraid of?????
Well the good news is, that the Blue-dogs democrats have woken up and are leaving the party in droves, and that chaps them, Obama says he needs 4 more years to finish the job, yep, he did not get to kill the country in 4 years, needs a little more time to finish us off. Here is a real fact, 16 trillion in national debt, 6 of that under his rule, 23 million unemployed . Oh, yea, this is going to cost him his job. Ex-democrat, Romney/ Ryan, 2012.
So Jim–what’s your point?
Freedom of religion is one of the cornerstones of our Bill of Rights.
Do you have a problem with someone whose religion is different than yours?
Maybe I don’t hold the same beliefs as you–do you really know what it means to be a US citizen?
Boy all you people are really messed up about you political comments. You need to listen to what the candidates say. Not what the politico pundents screen at you for ratings.
Let us not forget where the trillions of debt came from, GW Bush, a Republican that drained our country dry with useless wars in the middle east.
And yes we should stop supporting Israel , they have universal healthcare because American tax payers money keeps going to support them. We should support ourselves ! Why should life be better for them , than for our own people? Makes no sense
I really wish obama would cut military spending in half .
Correction! In my earlier comment about the DNC holding an Islamic pray event, the DNC has now removed it from their schedule. I wander why? Must have been getting too much heat.
Making the USA energy independent by 2020 and keeping all those billions and billions of dollars we send over seas is a good plan to fix a lot of things. Obama’s lip service to do the same is at best a joke, and at worst a flat out lie. With the propaganda machine Obama has, known as : ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, NPR, New York Times(LOL) and all the rest, it’s easy to see how the liberals here still maintain their “hope and change”. Oh yeah, we do have Fox, that evil net work that is still Number 1 though. I still think this is the country’s last chance. We’re all on the Titantic, and the iceburg is dead ahead. :-/
Next week, Obama and the DNC will hold a 2 hour Islamic prayer service to pray to Allah. Go to Google and read all about it. It was also reported that a Catholic Cardinal’s request to say a prayer at the event was denied. Wake up America! Obama was not born in this country and does not hold the same beliefs of the American people. If this doesn’t scare you to death, then I don’t know what will. Vote Republican in November.
Obama has the highest unemployment record, 23 million people without jobs, took $716 BILLION out of the Medicare trust fund to fund Obamacare, $6 TRILLION in debt during his term and counting, bows down and apologizes to Middle East leaders, hasn’t passed a budget in 3 years, has taken the most vacations of any president, etc. NO THANKS – my vote goes to Romney to fix this mess that this country is in.
@Kathy, Obama has a plan.
To cut our military, to stab Israel in the back, to destroy
our economy and to convert our economy into a European
Socialistic model.
No thanks !!!
All presidential elections are a vote for the lesser evil and right now Obama has had his time and failed. Nuff said.
Agreed Romney is just a face , he has provided no plan other than finger pointing things at Obama and throwing money at everything.
Romney just acts as if we should elect him without any sort of direction. If you compare what he says in the past until now he just flip flops all over the place.
Romney has no economic plan, he has no plan for anything. Listen to his speeches it is nothing but cutting President Obama, no plans, no speech on what he might do, he is all blow with no go!!
