Romney/Ryan or Obama/Biden?

Pros and Cons of each?

[JCSimon]

Obama/Biden, of course. I'm sure that's no surprise coming from me. I'm not thrilled with all Obama has done, but Romney/Ryan scares the crap out of me.

Ryan's budget plan would devastate all but the most wealthy people in this country and, even if all of his assumptions about the future economy were true (and I highly doubt most of them would be), it would take 50 years to even come close to dropping our debt. Romney is unable to say anything specific about *any* issue. His attitude is, "Trust me, all will be well." Really????

It's late, I'm tired, I'll get more specific tomorrow.

Definitely R and R. Nothing can be as bad as what we've had for the past 4 years.

[JCSimon]

What, specifically, about the last four years is so bad? I agree that there are some things I might consider bad, but, to me, just saying, "It's bad" doesn't really say anything.

Shoving OBAMACARE down our throats, Skyrocketing deficit spending, most people ever on public assistance, food stamps, section 8 housing, Increased unemployment, increased gas prices (it was 1.82 when Bush left office), regulations not allowing coal production, not oking the pipeline, not having a budget passed in the 3 years he's been president, Michelle taking a BUNCH of people on vacation with her, and US picking up the bill for the luxury hotel they booked, the pitting one section of the population against the other, making presidential proclamations to get around laws that the congress has passed, he gutted medicare by 1/2 TRILLION dollars to pay for Obamacare. Here is a blatant example of his divisiveness attempts. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=BdjoHA5ocwU
If a white candidate had made such a speech about uniting "white people" in their favor, they would have been tarred and feathered. and this was just posted today:
CBO: Deficit expected to grow another $1.1 trillion marking the 4th straight year the nation's debt exceeds $1 trillion.

Besides that, he drives me nuts with his nose stuck up in the air.

I'm sure there is more--this was just off the cuff.

The pros of Romney? He's NOT Obama. End of sentence.

I am still not sure which way I am going yet, they all scare the heck out of me, Obama doesn't bother me as much as Romney does, The attack ads seem to get worse every election, and with the RNC here in Tampa, I would love to be able to go and just listen.

[DeannaJ]

Gina, I don't like the attack ads either. Especially when they are personal attacks, not about POLICIES. There IS a difference. Obamacare scares me half to death. The rising deficit also scares me a lot. The fact that Obama promised to decrease the deficit by 50% in his first term shows how much he values his promises.

When Barack Obama took office, our federal debt stood at $10.626 trillionrs. On Feb. 23, 2009, President Obama promised to cut the federal deficit in half by the end of his first term in office. With less than three months until the presidential election, the Federal deficit now stands close to $16 trillion.

Obama needs to retire Biden and have Hillary as his running mate.

[DeannaJ]

Obama needs to retire and let Hillary run--she'd be a lot better than Obama ever was or could hope to be.
