Apparently, Romney's had enough.

[StingerNLG]

Houston, this one is for you. The fight appears to have begun.

I think Mitt feels it's one thing to do the normal negative attacks and such, but it's another to call him a felon and just outright lie about him.

So here we go! It's about to be on.

This election season is gonna be alot more dirty/crazy then last time. I might just boycott news this summer/fall.

I've been posting that Mitt has to attack OBY. McCain didn't either. He was afraid of the race card. Hell, OBY played the race card on Slick Willie and he never got over it. That's why he went to the GOPs and said you have 6 months to save the country.

Carvile was on TV and said they called us murderers when Clinton
ran.

They can't run on their record so they're hitting him on Bain and personal attacks to get the attention off of jobs and economy.

It's working or was.

[NCRAVEN]

I think Mitt would have played nice until the felon remark, and then the you didn't build that speech.

IMO that set Mitt off saying building Bain Capital was because of someone else (in so many words).

[AirFlacco]

Mitt kicks him in the gut now with this one:

OBYs JOBS COUNCIL HASN'T MET IN 6 MONTHS.

Spokesman said his plate is full.

Then he asked business owners to stand up and accept thanks and many did and the place went nuts.

Maybe his best speech.

I love this part.

One woman became visibly agitated and called Obama a “monster” as she described the state of “this awful economy” that was ruining her son’s business. Romney quickly responded: “That’s not the term that I use.”
“I can,” she shot back. “I’m an angry mom.

Mitt fights back hard with new T-shirt as advertisements vs OBYs
speech.

It was the felon comment that did it.

I'm glad he's starting to speak out.

[NCRAVEN]

I hope he takes Trumps advice and says I'll release my tax returns when you release college transcripts, application, medical records and last but not least why you used executive privilege on fast and furious.

Guarantee the calls (or distraction) of tax returns would disappear.

[HoustonRaven]

Not sure I agree with Trump 100%

Mittens has released the returns he's required by law to release. And the college transcript thing is silly. Now I do like the idea of Mitt saying something like "Release ALL of the Fast and Furious documents, and I will release my returns"

[NCRAVEN]

The college transcripts thing silly, college records not so much. I was just paraphrasing what Trump said.

But I do agree that all things he's not released that other Presidential candidates have, should be included in what/ if Mitt's team counters with.

[StingerNLG]

More evidence the Bain attacks and the other crap Obama is throwing out there isn't working:

The whole tax return thing is stupid. Romney was elected Governor. You'd think if there was some hidden criminal crap in his tax returns he would have not gotten through that. This is all distraction.

As I used to point out to our lost long buddy Galen. All the media reports on the economy getting better, twisted unemployment etc won't change what people are living. This shit ain't sticking because people care about their money not Mitt's.

[AirFlacco]

The Senate race is almost a tie too. DEMs have a 47-45 edge with 8 tossups but if you
read the fine print below that 47-45 lead where it says safe - GOP leads 42-37 with
8 tossups.

51 seats are needed for control.

It's quite possible for Mitt to get VA and GOP gets 51 seats for repeal.

Taking bets on new polls coming out.

I'll bet (whoever wants to take it) that now that the polls are tightening, PPP(D) NBC Marist, insert someone we've never heard of, Reuters, AP etc. Come out with Obama +4, +6, +5, +6 etc.

Any takers?

[AirFlacco]

LOL - OBY can dish it but he can't take it.

Now he's accusing Mitt of false statements taking his remark out of context that if you have a business you didn't built it.

That's a lie because he did say it and everyone heard it and the fallout has been great.

What a pussy Prez. Just get over it and go back to Indonesia.

Looks like the Obama attacks are indeed working.

RCP Electoral Average just took a huge swing back to Obama. They basically flipped flopped scores.
