Any Other Dems Slightly Scared Now?

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

Scared? Not really... concerned? yes.

I'm avoiding being biased to the best that I can, often my work requires me to advocate things I don't support, so I'm relatively good at detaching myself...

I'm not surprised Romney got a bump, but I am surprised at the immediate scale of it we can perceive so far. It strikes me as disproportional to the debate we saw, Obama was certainly unimpressive and Romney 'looked' more stable and confident (accuracy issues aside) ... but I didn't see anything that would have justified such a swing... it's almost a kind of hysterical reaction...

We'll see how things sit mid-week...

Big swings in all the key states is what I saw.  Like I'm thinking, OH is the state that Obama MUST hold.  It appears that FL, CO, NC, and VA may actually slip away.

I didn't think the debate would move the key states like they appear to have, but the big movement scares me.

As I said before, this really seems like a disproportional and hysterical reaction to the debate... it's possible the polling is a result of Obama losing the expectations game so badly, on top of not being especially good...

But again, we'll need to wait to see...

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

As Oakie has often said... the natural state for liberals is 'loserism' ... we see adversities and flee thinking "oh, they've won again... gah" and walk away, well before the battle has actually been lost.

I think Obama's supporters need to hold our nerve.

All I'm going to say is that Democrats need to expect a few days of pretty ugly numbers...

What about Catholics - who most certainly are a minority in America? Is their faith not under attack with Obamacare forcing them to purchase contraception?

Are we SERIOUSLY getting in this s*** again... whether or not you're a religious institution, if you're a secular employer, yes you should be obliged to cover all employees.

I wasn't thrilled that Obama backed down on that one (which he did BTW)... but it was a workable compromise and the only people who kept on with it... basically are people who need to find things to offended by and claim victim status.

Quoting this because you apparently all missed it -

People: you're trying to reason with someone who has repeatedly claimed that Obama is a Muslim. He's either a troll of the first degree or a delusional idiot. Either way...

I know I know... but when someone spouts pure s*** it's hard to not respond...

The constitution protects freedom of conscience and religion. Those who are Catholic should not be forced to pay for health care that includes contraception and abortion. Would you want to be paying for health insurance that included coverage for Exodus?

You have your own conscience and freedom of religion... but that doesn't exclude you from satisfying the legal requirements of being a secular employer.

In the end, Obama backed down, and took the responsibility off the religious-backed institutions/businesses who had problems with it...

This is only an issue because your baseless conspiracies theories remain exactly that, baseless and those you think have merit, are only because you understand so little.
