2010 starts now

And a good ad from the Romney camp.  Not because it’s Romney, but because it’s America.  Damn, I miss Colorado.

Lastly, also from 2010, the predictability of the lie that is progressivism and with it the lie that is Barack Obama and the Democrat Party elite.

    Between the aims of the post-totalitarian system and the aims of life there is a yawning abyss: while life, in its essence, moves toward plurality, diversity, independent self-constitution, aud self organization, in short, toward the fulfillment of its own freedom, the post-totalitarian system demands conformity, uniformity, and discipline.

    - Couple of thoughts FWIW.

    - Firstly I’m a buckeye. That crowd in Chester was huge. Theres probably barely that many people in the entire area of Chester. Its fly-over country and if they all turn out from the Ohio river to lake Erie, Jug ears won’t know what hit him.

    - Second, WHI’s take on the election.

    Zogby and Juan Williams and Dick Morris all believe Sandy has helped Obama with “independents.” Eg., here.

    Meaning, Chris Christie helped Obama close a two-point gap. On purpose. Because that’s all that was accomplished. 2016, folks. He and Jeb and Rove think they have a plan. Obama and Christie used one another for political capital.

    Meanwhile, a Republican-aided and rehabilitated Obama went right back to campaigning.

    Thanks, fat ass. And fuck you, Ann Coulter, for pushing this poser on us.

    Don’t panic yet.

  10. John Bradley says November 3, 2012 at 10:04 pm

    Anti-gouging laws, even-odd gas rationing, thinking he can ‘order’ the Mayor of AC to do anything… he’s such a tireless champion of free market economics and the role of limited government, let’s elect him president!

    Ann talks a good game, but ultimately (I think) just wants the levers of the all-powerful state in the hands of people she likes — not disconnected and sold for scrap metal.

    What Ernst said.

    Bronco is going to the glue factory on Tuesday. I predict we’ll have definative results by 10 or 11 eastern and his Woncness will concede.

  12. JimK says November 3, 2012 at 10:09 pm

    I don’t think Sandy will help The Won at all. By Monday evening the suffering will have become pretty intense and will certainly not reflect well on Fema and it’s boss. It’s going to be epic. Benghazi and Sandy, two perfect storms landing on his head. The Gods are laughing.

  13. Ernst Schreiber says November 3, 2012 at 10:11 pm

    This is one of those instances where it would be nice to know the specific wording of the question or questions asked.

  14. Ernst Schreiber says November 3, 2012 at 10:13 pm

    If they’re laughing, that means they’re playing with us.

    Sometimes they play rough.

  15. BigBangHunter says November 3, 2012 at 10:14 pm

    - That’s essentially WHI’s take also Leigh. In fact if Ohio doesn’t end up in a voters nightmare, and goes Romney, he says that by midmight it will be an R&R mandate, but even without Ohio he’s calling it 300 for Romney.

  16. BigBangHunter says November 3, 2012 at 10:26 pm

    - FEMA ran out of water today, even as bumblefuck was meeting with them for another photo-op. Then back to campaigning.

    - As far as Christie, I was pissed at first also, but in retrospect I’ll stay neutral for now. Spne of those people are already in dire straights, and its getting worse. Its entirely possible he was honestly saying ‘screw the politics’ and hoping to get some added action from the Won to help people. Maybe, maybe not, but I hesitate to pile on if that was possibly the case.

  17. leigh says November 3, 2012 at 10:32 pm

    Barone is calling it 315 for Romney, also early BBH.

    Jeff, there were mega-crowds in Englewood and Colorado Springs today. What’s the buzz in your neck of the woods? I saw lots of Women for Mitt and Catholics for R&R signs at the rallies I mentioned.

    Also, Bronco looks like shit. Dark circles under his eyes, open collar and no tie. Waving his arms and pointing a lot and talking about Al Qaeda being “decimated”. Sure.

    Mitt looks tired, but was wearing a tie and had the lovely Ann at his side giving him the Nancy Reagan adoration look. He told upbeat stories, talked about his plans for the country, introduced the scoutmaster with the space shuttle flag from his anecdote and stuck it to Bronco on the “revenge” voting.

    Roger Kimball and his bowtie see it the same way.

    - I’m also not convinced that the Sandy situation is going to be a net positive for Jug ears. The stories coming out of there are wicked badm and the whore media are finally starting to report it.

    - At that photo-op today with his cabinet people and FEMA a reporter asked him what he was going to do about all the unrest, growing promblems and anger, and slow response in the NY and NJ area. He simply refused to respond, and that was shown on network and cable nationally.

    - People won’t forget that image of him just ignoring the question.

  20. Ernst Schreiber says November 3, 2012 at 11:05 pm

    Just to get Jeff to climb down come up from his bunker:

    Despite President Barack Obama turning the tide with a five-point swing among Independents with his response to Hurricane Sandy, the race is still too close to call, pollster John Zogby tells Newsmax TV.

    That means Romney is winning. If Obama was winning, John Zobgy would tell you to call your bookie

    Zogby said Obama’s job approval numbers are right where they were when President George W. Bush was re-elected — with 48 percent to 49 percent approval — and if the number moves up or down it’s enough to swing the election. [....] “A 48 percent job approval rating is right on the border for re-election. That’s how close this is. It’s right on the border.”

    This is a guess on my part, but I’d say that was in his ’04 poll. Remember, Rush and others, including Karl Rove have made a point of mentioning that nobody under 50% approval in the Gallup survey in mid September has ever been elected. Independents are ecstatic to finally see Obama working, and he’s still under 50%

    “In key states — Ohio, for example — seems to favor Barack Obama and some other states like Virginia, even Florida favors Romney. In our poll, we ask those who’ve already voted who they voted for and they’re telling us nationwide that it’s about even slightly favoring President Obama at this point. But that is nationwide.”

    Somebody should tell Zogby about the Wilder effect.

    Obama is trending in the right direction when it comes to which direction people feel the country is moving, with 52 percent saying the country is on the wrong track, down from 74 percent.

    That’s still a majority that thinks the country is on the wrong track.

    On the importance of today’s announcement of 7.9 percent unemployment, Zogby said, “It’s one of the factors. …. [bullshit swept away]

    “I don’t think it’s going to be a game changer. Had it gone higher, it would’ve been; had it gone lower, it would’ve been.”

    So the economy still sucks. People are still out of work. The country is headed in the wrong direction, but hey, independents think Obama’s done a swell job monitoring the hurricane relief efforts.

    If John Zogby grasps that straw any tighter, it’s gonna turn into gold I tell ya.

  21. Ernst Schreiber says November 3, 2012 at 11:28 pm

    Romney up by four in PA.

    Up by one in MN, a state that’s only gone Republican once in my lifetime.

    (both via instapundit)

    Pace Zogby, it doesn’t sound to me like Obama’s closing the gap in an election that’s too close to call. It sounds to me like Obama is collapsing and the only thing that’s too close to call at this point is his margin of defeat.

  22. Ernst Schreiber says November 3, 2012 at 11:45 pm

    pour encourager les autres

    Or as a savant of street wisdom once sagely remarked vis-a-vis pedagogical method:

    Something I try to teach all my boys: always put one in the BRAIN!

  23. BigBangHunter says November 4, 2012 at 1:20 am

    - Jug ears steps on his dong…..again:

    “In a speech to supporters in Virginia on Saturday night, President Barack Obama told the crowd, “I’m sort of a prop in the campaign.”

    - Whats wierd is HuffPoop did a post that puts the statement in the worst light, and the Clinton lovers are having a field day with it, and the ObamaBots are going off on HP and coming unglued.

    - Sweet.

  24. BigBangHunter says November 4, 2012 at 1:11 am

    - If this is allowed to go on then the Republic is trully over.

  25. McGehee says November 4, 2012 at 6:33 am

    Bronco is going to the glue factory on Tuesday.

    Even as glue he’ll fail. He couldn’t hold together two sheets of Charmin.

  26. serr8d says November 4, 2012 at 6:38 am

    OT…but, fascinating. An academic How-To on language manipulation to achieve far-Left goals…

    New research published in Psychological Science, a journal of the Association for Psychological Science, suggests that a simple manipulation of language might be able to influence support for policies aimed at addressing income inequality.

    Income inequality can be described in two ways: as the rich making more than the poor, or as the poor making less than the rich. The two descriptions convey identical information, but research has shown that the way in which inequalities are framed influences what we think other people ought to have.

    Researchers Rosalind Chow and Jeff Galak of the Tepper School of Business at Carnegie Mellon University hypothesized that framing inequality in terms of the rich making more than the poor would highlight how wealthy the rich are and would increase people’s willingness to take this wealth away from them.

  27. serr8d says November 4, 2012 at 6:54 am

    So I left a comment there, to be gone in 3, 2, 1…

    What you haven’t addressed is why should anyone desire to ‘take this wealth away from them’ in the first place. Perhaps a correlative study of rat’s brains for to understand why greed, envy, and moral turpitude figure more prominently in far-left ‘Progressives’ than in higher-order Conservatives ?

  28. serr8d says November 4, 2012 at 6:59 am

    Oh, and one more OT thing, this what led me to that site in the first place. Ron Paul supporters please note…

    They are what they do, not what they say. That’s been noticed in these here precincts for years.

  31. RI Red says November 4, 2012 at 4:51 pm

    OK, I’m going with Insty’s “preference cascade.” In an admittedly small NH sample, the yard sign count in our town favors Romney 6 to 1 over Jugears.
