    No one else energizes the conservative base like he does. Our only hope for overturning Obamacare is to give Obama another term, but a vote for Obama will be futile. Not even the Democrats want him now.

    I really admire President Obama. Then again, I like root canals.

    I fail to see the logic here. Perhaps you could explain.

    The threat of tyranny is what has energized the conservative base. An assualt at the executive level provoked conservatives to retaliate by changing the balance of power in both houses.

    Put Romney in the White house, and the threat will appear to abate. A Romney victory will not undo Obamacare, nor undo the crushing debt under which Obama and the Democrat minions have placed us (oppression being its design and intent). Putting men in congress who understand the times and who are willing to take the heat for doing what needs to be done to put this nation back on course is the only way.

    I fear without the threat of absolute tyranny, the conservative giant will go back to sleep.

    Obama has been good for America in the way that stripes are good for fools.

    Keeping Obama in office will only entrench Obamacare that much deeper. It is BO's prized accomplishment. His baby will be protected. He will make sure its implementation goes forward. That means new taxes will be in effect. Once a tax is in place it's nearly impossible to get rid of. Better to nip it before it has its chance to grow.

    No economic freedom means no political freedom means no freedom! In my most humble opinion.

    Four more years of Obama will bring the demise of this country as a world power. Europe is for all practical purposes emasculated. If this country goes the western world is gone. And it is well worth remembering that, though this country has done more to help other countries than any nation in history, they don't like us.

    1st, I would not identify Obama as a tyrant.....Hitler was a tyrant & so was Mao & so was Stalin. No BO is a manipulator for the banks & stock brokerage businesses & the health care business, who really run this nation....but he does still have some authority. No I see BO as an actor, a smooth criminal, a liar, and he is never to be trusted for one instant.

    As Arron states correctly, both a republican congress & the Constitution are his primary hindrances. If Americans gather together to create a bulk-work against him & we can find ways to halt a "Progressive " initiative in the courts, then we can possibly take this country back from his backers. Again Aaron is correct that BO represents a opposing force that I believe will take more than Romney to overcome. From my own personal prospective, I do not relish putting a Cultist into the office of the Presidency to Mormonise the United States....to me anyway, thats setting a dangerous precedent to an already difficult situation. God only knows what will happen & I seriously wish we could have a do over (get Jeb Bush & or some conservative who better represents us & isn't:rolleyes: a Mormon or any other cult) but it is what it is...cast your vote & take your chances at this late date.

    A simple truth that many don't understand.

    Yes, Obama is good for America. Or at least the best choice out of the other crazies and idiots who want the job.

    Although Scripture says Moses was the most humble man to have ever lived, you had not come along yet. Then again, Moses walked around in circles in the middle of a desert for forty years.
