The workers are so happy to see Romney in Ohio!1!

Last edited Wed Sep 26, 2012, 02:27 PM - Edit history (1)

Adding Ryan in Colorado (sorry I said Ohio) for Romney comparison purposes:

Update: CNN Online did a really wide panoramic camera scan - first looks of crowd size were deceiving. They are packed tight like sardines but they are in a tiny, tiny building with a bunch of stuff. Most be hot as one lady had to be hand carried out the door The crowd is alot more enthusiastic than the top of the ticket's crowd.

OH SHIT - I see a HUGE problem going on between ROMNEY and RYAN. Reminds me exactly of MCCAIN and PALIN when Mccain camp figured out that Palin wasn't going to walk the straight and narrow

Fracture baby!!


These students look so unhappy to see POTUS in Ohio!

I hope not because they would be out of work or shoveling shit for $4 bucks an hour if Romney had his way.

The look absolutely miserable and some royally pissed off. They look like they HAD to be there. May be an interesting story coming out later about it - they usually do.

The students OTOH are ecstatic to see POTUS!

Specifically ... they're waiting for Mittens to tell them their services are no longer required.

and know what a POS Romney really is. They might have to be there but they can't be made to like it as one can see by their faces.

Here's the Stage ad for those who might not have seen it:

and they have excellent ones, the "Stage" one still stays with me months after it was first released, it has the same powerful effect on me today as it did the first time I saw it.

Ryan is introduced and says the usual then says something like isn't this America as he looks out in the crowd.



Their campaign is in a world of hurt - we have to keep that that way!

Stench and Gilligan are the perfect nicknames for them, imo, ones that should stick with them for a very long time.

This is the crowd he told in Westerville OH not to expect any tax relief from him. Or is it the republicans are a miserable lot who want to make everyone else miserable also.

Smells stinky like set up stinky but you never know - not sure anyone who's actually on assistance would dare speak up in front of this crowd.

Ryan of course spews his crap. Effin' Ryan simply states the current requirements of welfare, food stamps, etc. he's actually saying nothing new that does not exist right now. Stupid people cheer like he's doing something differently.

Real story will come out soon, I'm sure. I'm def. curious about that woman.
