Obama Isn't Angry, He's Winning

Romney is calling the president angry because he is losing

Back to argument

Believe it or not, folks, not everything is about race. One can disagree with Obama and his minions without being a racist. I think that Obama was elected because the gullible people believed the crap he was spewing. Also, voters wanted to show the world that we are racially tolerant. However, that's not enough.....we're still being called racist. Go figure.

I am a Republican, but I like Hillary Clinton. I may not agree with her ideology, but I appreciate that she tells things like it is.....not things that she thinks of in the in the recessess of her mind. She's been a great Secretary of State. However, dealing with Mr. Wishy-Washy must give her long days and nights. Even though I like her, I will be voting for Romney. I would croak if I had to vote for Obama.

I do not think president Obama will win this election. I mean do not get me wrong I think he is a nice enough man but, he has no clue what he is doing. I am an independent and voted for Mccain because I thought he was better equipped to run this country. Had Hillary been the democratic candidate I would have voted for her. Besides that though, the reality of the situation is he is not doing a good enough job to have the honor of being elected again. I do not care what they polls say, almost everyone that I know that voted for him, are either voting for Romney or not voting at all, and yes that includes women, men, white's and minorities.

If you have no facts to suppport you, pound the table, and blame someone else ?

Now Obama is back to claiming he "inherited" the economy ~ but in nearly 4 years has only made it worse ?

I think I'm going to outsource myself to just about any other country, if he gets re-elected!

This writer is out of touch with the rest of us..Truly no one cares that the President is black except his own party and the Liberals (that is if there is a distinction between the two). The President has been anything but "Cool Headed" in this campaign. Honestly his campaign is actually a mess. His campaign has had an angry tone with their divisive rhetoric ie: Joe Biden, Harry Reid. I've lost patience with this Democratic party. I too am a minority and a female at that. I can see through this Democratic scheme. They use race as a stepping stone to achieve their twisted ideas of fairness and what they consider "just". Those tactics no longer have a place is our America. President Obama may have the Electoral lead for now but it is obvious that the tides are turning. Did you take a good look at Wisconsin ? Mitt Romney's campaign has dealt with the issues upclose and without smoking mirrors. Here's what is clear, Obama has a record and it is a failed record. Economically it is an uttermost failure. Romney is not responsible for this failure But Obama would like for us to think it so. He has failed to unite our country and has failed us has our President. Mitt Romney is honorable man and honor has no color! Mitt Romney is 100 percent qualified and that is why Obama's campaign is scrambling. They haven't dealt with the issues since the beginning of his term. Harry Reid can't even pass a budget. Do you really think that the American people are not paying attention? If so then I suspect that this particular writer will be in for quite a surprise.

I am sure you did not hear Biden's comments or even Obama's d?. By Obama's own standards, when you dont have any substance to run you run a divisive campaign. For a man who is President for 3.5 years, he never talk about his achievements. All he does is pass the blame. Get over all this racist crap. racist only see racism everywhere. I am a minority too so I can say as I see it.

Are you kidding me?? Saying someone is angry is now a racist comment??

0bama is not winning. Not by a long shot. 0bama is in big trouble because Americans want to know what his plan is and clearly he does not have one. Just more spending without accountability and larger deficits.

Sorry, folks...a grown up has entered the race. Paul Ryan is the ONLY politician to tell the people the truth about our fiscal issues and the ONLY politician with the guts to actually do something about it.

Good Riddence, Mr President. Romney/Ryan 2012

OTOH, it gets kinda silly if we start wasting time over simple words such as "angry".

I mean, what's left in vocabulary if you can't call your opponent anything without some people seeing "overtones" in it?

The Magic M of FL 10:44AM August 16, 2012

I don't know about angry, but Biden's "put y'all back in chains" remark is definitely a low blow that seems like it would only be spoken by someone desperately trying to make their opponent seem evil. Equating deregulation of the banking industry with slavery for blacks is wrong, hyperbolic, and divisive.

You and I may disagree with some of Mitt Romney's policies, but he definitely is not advocating a return to slavery through deregulation of the banking industry.

Daniel Curtis of PA 10:24AM August 16, 2012

the spewage coming forth from Romney and his pro-supporters is detestable and anti-civil. Obama hasn't been "angry", he's been confident and positive. Mitt is running scared and now attaching that "angry" narrative to a half-black man to somehow try and make one of the more calm president's appear unsettled. Sorry, Willard, you're the only unhinged one around here...
