"Obama's gonna lose," warns Michael Moore

Cicero

Mayor
This morning I was looking around for election cycle interest pieces and while looking at The Huffington Post I discovered Michael Moore warning that Obama is on the verge of becoming a one term president. The irony is that the fat man actually listed most of the things conservatives talk about as essentially being true about Barack Obama -- and that bother the hell out of mainstream voters -- only being a socialist himself Moore considered them good points. Weird.

Nonetheless More is convinced that Romney is about to become president unless the leftwingers of this nation hold the line on one statement and on one statement only [LINK]:

Don't sit it out. Don't try to convince anyone Obama has magically transformed us -- just tell them four years is simply not enough time to undo all the hurt caused by biggest economic crash since the Great Depression and the biggest military blunder/lie in our history.

Psssst . . . leftwingers, if your fat man is frightened about Obama's chances then perhaps he knows something you don't.

Here's the deal and it's something I've been trying to educate our leftwingers over regarding political reality since before Obama's polling numbers began taking a permanent downward dive at the end of 2009. If you want to begin to understand what is really happening then you have to ignore the stuff that makes your palms sweat with pleasure and read instead the stuff that makes you frown about you side's leadership.

Hell, in 2008 David Weigel of Slate tried to warn leftwingers that the Tea Party movement was going to give Barack Obama and the Democratic Party a political shellacking -- something that Obama himself admitted to receiving after the fact -- but back then you only listened to the leftwing journalists who told you what you wanted to hear. You were in total denial of looming reality when the information was handed to you by Weigel.

So here's you party's spiritual cheerleader telling you point blank that there is a very strong chance that you will be teaching yourselves to say "President Romney," after November. Perhaps you should read the article itself and see if you can learn something this time around before getting another easily predictable political shellacking. Forewarned is forearmed.
 
Turnout is the key, nothing more, nothing less. Numerically there are more Democrats than Republicans. Why else do you think the Republican governors have been desperately trying to pass measures that suppress the vote? Like Bill Clinton said, it is just arithmetic. Moore is just trying to tell Dems we have to get out and vote in November<shrug>, if we dont we deserve to lose to the Mitt Droid, and a fundamental change in America.
 
I read it.. so??

Hate... race.. well known factors..

Moore stated this as well... nothing new.. has been apparent for quite some time.

They have to suppress the vote! They have to stop as many liberals from voting as possible. So they've passed many voter suppression laws to make it hard for the poor, the minorities, the disabled and students to vote. They honestly believe they can pull this off -- and they just may. The only "positive" thing about this is that their need to have such laws in order to win the election is an admission on the part of the Republicans that they know the U.S. Is a liberal country and that the only way they can now win now is to cheat. Trust me, if they believed that America was a right-wing country they'd be passing laws making it so easy to vote you could do it in the checkout line at Walmart.

I'm going to go with my optimistic side here (sorry, cynics, you know I love you) and imagine a Second Term Obama (and a Democratically-controlled Congress) who will go after all the good that our people deserve and put the power of our democracy back in our hands. There's good reason why the Right is terrified of a Second Term Obama because that is exactly what they think he'll do: the real Obama will appear and take us down the road to social justice and tolerance and a leveling of the economic playing field. For once, I'd like to say I agree with the Right -- and I sincerely hope their worst nightmare does come true.
 
Imus announced this morning that Romney is going to win! He then added,I also predicted McCain would win!:eek:)

Democrats are spreading out and working to make sure all can vote,getting ID cards,etc.
I mailed in for my absentee ballot yesterday.Husted had tried to stop the mailing in Montgomery County. Not all counties sent out a card. Now he has to send one to every voter in the state.

Husted filed again to stop Weekend voting. He is trying to avoid the embarrassment of rehiring Lieberman and Ritchie. He is an incompetent fool. He was here in Kettering too.
 
And the predictable responses indicate that it all went -- zip! -- over your heads again as you collectively imitate the ostrich with heads buried in the sand. I, of course, expected nothing different from any of you.

Well at least after Romney becomes president none of you can say that you were not warned. Even your party's spiritual leader warned you. But once again you decide that ignoring reality is far better than facing it. I guess that some people just like receiving unpleasant surprises down the road.

Good for you,Cicero. Keep whistling past the grave yard. Bless your heart!
I have to start spell checking,But am having too much fun and now have to leave.
 
WTG... :D :thumb:
Amazing what they are putting voters through to restrict and supress the vote.. in order to win..
 
Yankees.. think I have heard that term before -- when talking 'bout y'all Northerners!!:D
 
He did not get the latest news when he wrote this apparently. Ohio is now leaning Obama. ;)

Given that, Romney may as well reapply for a position at Bain.
 
[Shrug] it makes no never mind to me that our leftwingers are once again snorting political fairy dust. I just felt an obligation to point out that the party's own leadership knows that Obama may very well lose to Romney for the simple reason that Obama has not, in fact, been a very good president. If Michael Moore says it, then it must be true. If he's worried then so, too, should the the rest of you be worried.

Meh . . . but as noted, some people like to ignore warnings and be utterly taken by surprise at the outcome of elections. That way there is nothing to stand between them and the purity of whimpering at the universe, "What the hell just happened?" and "Why didn't anybody warn me?"

Well, all of you have been warned and by your party's own spiritual leader. Enjoy.
 
Addy,I am a Buckeye Hillbilly, raised right next to the Ohio river,on the Ohio side. In Tennessee,I am known as a Yankee:eek:)

MaryAnne, in Georgia you would be known as a Damyankee! Those half-breeds in north Tennesee just ain't loyal to the Confederacy!

Sorry, we aint buying what you are selling. Go mix it up with NC, Mike, Drum and your other fellow travelers.

Psssst . . . leftwingers, if your fat man is frightened about Obama's chances then perhaps he knows something you don't.

I don't hear "frightened".. I hear realistic. Obama COULD lose.

Doesn't mean he's likely to.. but it COULD happen.

So Moore is helping Get Out The Vote.... yes and?

Hell, in 2008 David Weigel of Slate tried to warn leftwingers that the Tea Party movement was going to give Barack Obama and the Democratic Party a political shellacking
and in 2008 it did not happen.

in 2010 it didn't really happen either.. who won Feinstein's seat? The CA Gov. the WA Senate Seat, Reid's Senate Seat, MDs Senate seat?

The GOP actually UNDERPERFORMED expectations in 2010.
 
1] You will get into trouble with your fellow leftwingers by admitting that Obama might lose to Romney.

2] Obama himself said that the Tea Party movement gave him and the Democratic Party a shellacking via the 2010 mid term elections. So you are calling Barack Obama a liar? Well then, welcome to the club.

Nah.. I'm a member of no organized party... I'm a Democrat!. Seriously. Liberals have known that Obama might lose for a long time. Hence why we are working to get the factual story out.

No I'm saying he was making a politically expedient claim that does not really take into account the demographics of the exit polling. And no smart leader lets the opposition know where he sees their weaknesses.
