    It sounds more like jealousy to me. The fact is that his campaign raised that money person by person. Small donations, one at a time. The People felt inspired enough to mobilize and donate to his campaign. The Republican canidates wish they had that sort of networking. Instead, every single canidate in the current GOP field is raising squat and would have been out of it long ago if it were not for their mysterious Super-PAC millionaires. The only GOP canidate who seems to be able to raise money is Gov. Romney.

    I think the analogy of one Democrat says it best, when he suggested you don't bring a knife to a gun fight. If the Republicans and the Democrats are comparable to the street gangs in West Side story (they don't seem any more rational or functional at the moment), then trying to keep the nasty stuff out of the rumble isn't a bad thing. When your efforts fail, you'd better arrive at that rumble strapped or you're definitely going to get killed.

    A the standard reply when out of arguments . I noted 4 in 4 years, I can give you 4 in 4 sentences.

    But you are right, obama is a democrat so that means he is just as bad a flip flop in your eyes as romney.

    Again, I can list more. But I don't feel like wasting anymore time.


    Obama is a flip flopper, flops with the worst of them, just did today on the HC bill fight with the Christian community.

    I dont like anyone to flip flop, especially on big issues where you are shown to be a double talker.

    So you dont like romney? You must loathe him as he flip flopped on every important issue several times.
