Re: 2012 Presidential Election (free for all edition)

Romney is holding a rally about a 1/4 down the road from my office. Its at 1:15 and this morning at 9:00 the parking lots were getting full and they had several open fields starting to fill up. I thought about bringing my bike to work and riding down there but I just don't have the time.


Governor Mitt Romney will hold a campaign rally Wednesday at a local community college in Chesapeake.

Governor Romney will speaking at Tidewater Community College located at 1428 Cedar Rd. Romney is scheduled to speak at 1:15 p.m.

Doors open at 10:45 a.m. Tickets are required for those wishing to attend the rally. The free tickets were available at TCC, Gov. Romney's campaign office in Virginia Beach and online. Anyone needing tickets can obtain them online leading up to the event.

Chesapeake's Public Works Department wants motorists in the area to be aware of possible traffic delays around TCC that might be caused by Gov. Romney's visit.

Elizabeth Vaughn with the City of Chesapeake said Cedar Road in the area of TCC could be affected. Drivers may also experience delays around Bells Mill Road, which also runs along campus.

Parking will be available at the corner of Cedar Road and Cahoon Parkway. Shuttles will be provided starting at 10 a.m.

WAVY.com will provide live coverage of the governor's visit online and WAVY News' Anne McNamara is scheduled to attend the rally.

The rally comes just a day after the former Massachusetts governor took on President Obama during a town hall-style debate in New York. The president was projected as the winner.

Both will face off in a third and final debate on Monday.

Thank You, absolutly.Problem is "both sides" just want to tear down the other rather than make a good case for election.

Binders full of women will probably be the only awesome thing Romney says through the rest of this election.

I hope the internet continues to milk this. Dude's got jokes.

Exactly. Although there are some legit questions about the whole ordeal the fiscal cliff, for example, is a much larger issue.

Its only a dream if people convience someone its only a dream like the democratic party has been spouting for years. See my answer above to the Obama lie and yes the nation is figuring out if he called it a terrorist attack on the 12th then why call it something else on the 16th.

Re: 2012 Presidential Election (free for all edition)

So if Obama did in fact call it a terrorist attack on the 12th how come on the 16th did they go on the talk shows and call it an uncontrolled mob attack? I would guess to cover up them ingnoring request for additional security and warning of an attack. We also now know that Biden lied in the debate when he said the reason for not calling it a terrorist attack was because at first they did not know it was a terrorist attack. Biden said they didn't know for some time that it was a terroist attack but Obama now says he called it a terrorist attack the very next day.

The latest:

More bad news for Obama:

RealClearPolitics - Election Other - Direction of Country

also Obama job approval below 50%, not looking good.

and to the UN, and in WH press conferences, and on other shows until the 25th of Sept.

The Obama Admin botched this one big time....and as always the cover-up is worse than the event itself.

Re: 2012 Presidential Election (free for all edition)

Evaluation of Romney tax plan, quick summary, it lifts personal income across all income brackets by approx 7.4%. Similar plans were enacted by JFK, Reagan and W, all achieved economic success.
