Same old canned rhetoric.
Try to comprehend this...
Romeny is a capitalist.
Obama is a socialst.
Seriously? The establishment polar politicians spend all their time pulling catch phrases out of their political goodie grab-bags (case in point). Capitalist? Socialist? Is it really that simple? I'm from MA. Was Romeny a capitalist when he created RomneyCare for us? These labels are meaningless to anyone except for those with an overly simplistic view of how things work. They are a convenient means of pigeon-holing people into neat, orderly little packages. Fact is, Romney is a bag man. He'll do and say whatever he is instructed to do and say. Same for Obama. Same for Bush, etc. These people have no real power. Was there any siesmic shift when Obama took office? Nope. Business as usual. When the Republicans 'took control' in 2010? Nope. Business as usual. The rich are getting richer, we're getting screwed and left holding the bag, government continues to take away our Constitutionally guaranteed rights and liberties, teh top dogs openly flaunt the laws and game the system for their personal gain. REAL capitalism died a very long time ago. We live in an age of corporate piracy and oportunism. Real capitalsim would not eat it's own young.

All in good time. We have patience.
----------
BTW, Obama is on the ropes.
Romney 50% / Obama 43%
It's time to call Hillary!
“Unfavorable” views of the Tea Party movement have jumped from 22% in February 2010 to 51% in March 2012, mostly at the expense of “don’t know” respondents.
Three people, including a former aide to Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, were arrested Thursday as part of a secret criminal probe that found two of the men stole funds intended for wounded vets and families of U.S. soldiers who died in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The Americans for Prosperity Foundation (R-Koch), a faction of the Conservative group founded by the Koch brothers, is spending at least $700,000 into ads in Wisconsin defending Gov. Scott Walker’s (R-WI) record. Walker’s promise for job creation has failed, and while his campaign did not promise to eradicate collective bargaining rights, he was successful at that.
As a candidate, Walker promised that the State would have 250,000 private sector jobs by the end of his four year term. PolitiFact reports, “our calculations show that he has 236,500 jobs left to go. And this promise remains In the Works.” Or broken.
Thirty-seven percent (37%) of Likely U.S. Voters have at least a somewhat favorable opinion of House Speaker John Boehner, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey. But 42% have an unfavorable view of the Ohio Republican, although that's down from last month’s all-time high of 50%. The new findings include 10% with a Very Favorable opinion of Boehner and 22% with a Very Unfavorable opinion. Twenty percent (20%) offer no opinion of him.
In recent weeks reports from South Carolina and Florida have suggested the Tea Party base, important to the winning campaigns of governors Nikki Haley(R-SC) and Rick Scott(R-FL), is falling away. In each case, it’s believed that loss of support may make it difficult for either to win re-election.

I did find Lugar's comments quite interesting. He's obviously bitter - but also quite worried about the growing inflexibillity and extremism in the Republican Party.

Senator Lugar was thrown out and replaced with Tea Party favorite.
Out with the old and in with the new.
Tea Party firepower gave the liberals a shellacking in November 2010.
Liberals are sensing pending doom November 2012.

Yes, it's called an election.
Richard Luger - L O S T - to Tea Party Challenger Richard Mourdock.
It wasn't close.
Tea Party - Richard Mourdock 61%
RINO Lugar - 39%
Good luck in retirement Lugar! Long live the mighty Tea Party !

Can I ask which poll you're citing? Please tell me it's not the Ras one that has The Romney Unit leading by 7 points - Ras are useless. I think Gallup has TRU ahead of Obama by a point, which sounds more likely at the moment.
