We are!
Well, we at TOD would look stronger if you all got over here!
Man, you guys are slowing up at the wrong time! Fired up! Ready to vote!
VC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Aaaaaah! /gooey-eyed sigh of happiness/
The Baby-Whisperer! Is this a new photo? He never fails to entrance the little ones (and the big ones too)…
I think I might have seen it before,Wes, but I’m usually so caught up in the PBObaby communication that I never concentrate too much on the surroundings. They so very often seem to be saying something TO EACH OTHER that I’m always trying earnestly to decipher! What can I say except that I’m nosy, but more about the hidden than about the obvious.
Thank you very kindly, Ms Chips!
That SS wimman!!!
Oh Boy. If only looks could kill …
Is that a wimmin specialty ?
/ducks and runs
“Where did you spend the night, mitt ?”
wonder if PBO will give himself a little dusting of bisquick before he goes on univision today. when in rome, you know?
Well, happy to be joined by you 4more. Where are your TOD siblings?
Huh?
in light of mittbot’s brownface yesterday at univision, i tried and failed at making a joke about president obama making his skin tone a little lighter today at univision. whoops.
I laughed…
Ron Mott(Reporter covering Paul Ryan)-
Paul Ryan is a very dynamic politician, you might see him unleashed a little more in the Battleground States and then you would see different poll numbers.
Kiss ass Much, Ron?
I guess (unsubstantiated) prophesy, or fortune telling, has been an integral part of journalism training in these latter days?
I’ve been hearing that he’s dynamic and smart and a game changer for a month now. Still waiting for that game to change.
Hey Ron, you asshole, Romney has already been unleashed, and that’s the problem.
“Gosh, I’d love to bring in more legal immigrants that have skill … I’d like to staple a green card to every Ph.D. in the world and say, ‘Come to America, we want you here,’” Romney said at the May event. “Instead, we make it hard for people who get educated here or elsewhere to make this their home.”
“Unless, of course, you have no skill or experience, in which case you’re welcome to cross the border and stay here for the rest of your life,” he said, to laughter from the audience. “It’s very strange.”

From the Romney tape
When you think he couldn’t sink lower, he proves you wrong.
The smell of sweet schadenfreude is too strong even for my g&t.
He’s conceding New Mexico, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin. Hahahahahaha…what’s next? Ohio and Florida?
I’d heard a few days ago he was doing an ad buy in MI and WI. Whatever.
America
Uggghhhh!!!!
Early signs of the smirk, no?
He probably carries that clip in his wallet…….
Most likely there won’t be any weekends at the White House….. Or weekdays either….
BREAKING NEWS: President Barack Obama is amazing!
Oh, we already knew that? Carry on…
Well then, is that glee I sense from Mr. Silver?
He’ll have to balance it soon Cman with a Romney-tastic pun
I see what Nate did there. He is starting to show more humor in his tweets.
He is Japa – happy pills???
For once. It’s very good.
Oh Nate made a pun! He must’ve had some happy juice this morning.
Ha, beat me to it – I went for happy pills!
Maybe — just maybe — now that the GOP is floundering like I suspected they would, Nate is able to be more like the Nate of 2008.
Ah, wouldn’t that be good?
I read somewhere this morning — don’t remember where — that Nate did an analysis of only the polls that include cell phones and I think everything went up for PBO by 10 points. Stunning.
Did Fox purposely report that POTUS met with a pirate this week instead of Netanyahu. That is an old tape of course. Have they retracted their statements or am I not understanding that video at the end of the last thread.
No, pretty much, they said he dissed Bibi for the pirate. He DID diss Bibi, but not for the pirate. And I for one am glad he put Bibi in his place—which is dependent on US taxpayers.
FOX who, and we should care why?
Just watched (listened to most of it while reading other things) Ann Romney’s event at Marquette University. Did not spot anyone who looked like a student and definitely not the enthusiasm you get at Michelle’s events. She’s trying hard in her own way. Had a bunch of women behind her and introduced some who served in Romney’s administration while governor. Kept saying they helped him rescue the Massachusetts economy. I didn’t think that was true. They don’t have an orginal clue of any sort and are still trying to copy the Obamas. Except for all the lies and spin.
Short speech, introduced by Scott Walker’s wife. A brief surprise at end when they suddenly switched to President Obama arriving in Miami.
The Marquette poll released yesterday has PBO ahead by 14 points….maybe she was depressed having to go there..
Not sure how much help they were in that rescuing of MA economy when the state ended up 47/50, only ahead of those that had suffered devastating disasters… They might not want to bring that up.
Was it NV or CO that the Mormons were going to send busloads of people to work for the campaign, with tax-free donations.
All miasma of hogwash. Just like rethugs’ “philosophy”.
Heads up everyone:

Wel, Univision is discriminating against my locale. I will retry WTXL at 12:20.
