HA! And you think Romney's debate "win" was a game changer! How 'bout some REAL numbers that show Obama's policies are beginning to work! Go ahead and pretend that Romney won the debate; in fact, pretend he wins every debate! Obama's recovery is going to get him re-elected! FINALLY the transformation Obama promised is starting to take shape! (after November, we're probably not going to have to listen to you babies whine any longer - Obama's gonna finally be free to use his internet "off" switch on bogus sites like this)

Why did Obama keep Biden on as his running mate? Biden is his uncontrollable liability. For the GOP he is PRICELESS. What will he say between now and the election? It only gets worse every time he opens his mouth. To think he is only a heartbeat away is scary. Holder is a liability. Clinton let four Americans get killed in Libya. Napolitano is a flaming idiot. What a crew! Each one is a challenge to Obama getting re-elected and you think he is in good shape?

THIS WILL BE EXPLAINED IN DETAIL AS THE FARCE IT IS.

Obama's October surprise - INDEED! Nothing but lies!

His policies? He has borrowed $5 Trillion, given money to his frineds while taking campaign kickbacks, and flies around the country thinking he is a rock star. He is an empty-suit that cannot think beyond a teleprompter. But, I can see how he would appeal to a tool like you.

Mixed Jobs Report Shows Unemployment Down to 7.8%

The jobs report prepared by the Bureau of Labor Statistics had mixed news today. Job growth was mediocre - only 114,000 new jobs were added in September, which isn't even enough to keep up with population growth. The top-line unemployment number fell to 7.8% and there was actually an increase in the labor force participation rate.
