— Ace Don't these women know there's a war on them?
A sharp advance among women has boosted Mitt Romney to his highest favorability rating of the presidential campaign – albeit still an unusually weak one – while Barack Obama’s personal popularity has slipped in the latest ABC News/Washington Post poll.Obama still beats Romney in favorable ratings overall, by an 11-point margin, 52 vs. 41 percent. But that’s down from 21 points last month, giving Romney the better trajectory.
...
All Romney’s gains have come among women – up by 13 percentage points in personal popularity from last month, while Obama’s lost 7 points among women. (Views among men have been more stable.) Obama’s rating among women, 51 percent favorable, still beats Romney’s 40 percent – but again that margin is far smaller than what it was six weeks ago.
By the way, Obama's lead in favorability seems to be partly due to the fact that while this poll asks registered voters about their actual vote preference, it asks all adults about favorability. Registered voters skews Democratic, and "all adults" skews even further Democratic.
Sorry I'm up so late. I've got insomnia again, dammit.

Anyway, brighten up: Romney looks stronger by the day, Obama's flailing, Barrett's failing.

If Obama's personal favorability slips then he's done for. That's the only reason he's still in the race.

A lot of women look at the two candidates to see which is more like their husband, or a man they would like to marry. There is Romney who works hard to privide for his family and then there is Obama who teaches people how to sponge off other people in the form of the government.
A hard choice, isn't it.

Romney has been acting like a decent guy, happy warrior stuff, and Obama has been acting like an abusive boyfriend telling us we deserve what we get because we suck and couldn't get anything better. Right after he smacks us upside the head for looking at Romney he tells us how that Romney dude makin' the eyes with us sucks leaves his dirty socks lying around.
That's how Obama makes me feel. I could see him shedding some support with that approach.

That could happen if he starts getting testy at events leading up to Nov. But then someone other than Breitbart and FoxNews has to broadcast it.

The ADC petition cited “discrimination and prejudice in American society[,] resulting in conditions under which Arab-American individuals have been unable to compete in a business world.” The group claimed discrimination against Arab Americans increased after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

It's fun to imagine the rubble that liberals will find themselves digging through come November.
----------------------
November prognostications are incredibly dangerous, but FUN. Imagine:
"I now know that America is hopelessly racist."
"Obama was too good for us."
"Obama didn't fail us -- we failed him."
"I'm moving to Canada."
"I weep for my country."
"We had all better learn Mandarin."
"I was just diagnosed with diabetes. I fear I will die in the next four years."
"He is eligible for re-election!"
I could go on and on, but it's too dangerous.

Imagine if Ronald Reagan, the most conservative President in modern
history, was a huge, bumbling fuck-up and made the country worse. As
conservatives, how would we deal with it? I imagine many of us would
reconsider the viability of conservative ideals. I imagine that some of
us, not a whole lot mind you, but some of us would take a cold, hard
look at liberalism.
.
Liberals don't question their theories, period. They will question the candidate, and scapegoat him instead, which will be delicious for us, but their theories are sacrosanct. The whole reason in their minds that communism has never worked is not because it is a fatally flawed theory, but the right people haven't been in charge.

Warm milk helps. Additionally, make sure the room is completely dark, including the lights of the clock radio, I cover mine with a washcloth. Humans were meant to sleep in total darkness and wake up when light hit the eyelids, which are very thin. If you can't get the room dark enough, invest in a sleep mask. I also run a fan on low for white noise and to circulate the air.

We asked one guide about America and without hesitation he clenched his fists and began shouting “down with USA”. In the music room, he was bursting with pride when he produced a Beatles album on CD and proceeded to blast out Yellow Submarine.
All three of the guides knew The Beatles and liked the music. Amazingly though, none had heard of John Lennon, Ringo Starr, Paul McCartney or George Harrison.
The only other western star they had heard of was Michael Jackson — but were shocked to discover that he was dead.

You have a reading comprehension problem. But nice try at a diversion.
