Mitt Romney charmed the average Americans at the Hamptons at a fund-raiser held by the Koch Brothers. It was the .10% crowd talking about how the average American just wasn't educated and didn't understand the situation of the economy.
Does anyone remember the jobs' report? Talk about losing your message. The last few days have been about Romney's off-shore accounts--"I don't know where there are". The fact that the Bermuda corporations was created before the the blind-trusts also got reported. And the gang-up on Romney not releasing his tax returns and his campaign telling people they just have to live with it. Or we had the news that Karl Rove of "independent" SuperPac Cross-hairs America just happened to be outside the door at a Romney fund-raiser.
Now the Romney campaign response is to call President Obama a "liar" perhaps getting ahead of the next logical attacks by the Democrats. Joe Biden got off a good line at the Latino conference, when he said that "Romney wants your papers, but he won't show you his."
Let's take a break for some polling news:
PPP shows once again that Obama has a 50-42 lead in Virginia and 47-46 in North Carolina. PPP remarked that they have polled North Carolina 22 times since 2010 and in 21 out of 22 Obama and Romney were within 3 points.
The Washington Post/ABC poll has the race tied at 47-47. But what is most interesting is that Obamacare is favored by 47 and disapproved by 47. This is the highest approval of the Healthcare Act since it passed.
We are in a lull. The press is trying to gin up interest in the Romney Vice Presidential choice. Even Rob Portman got to leak out that he was being considered. But it is a big snoozefest.
It's so lame that the Romney campaign is trying to get traction for accusing President Obama of being an outsourcer of jobs. That's like three weeks behind Obama's attacks on Romney. What is this the me-to campaign.
The Romney news was that he out raised President Obama by $35 million. Between the voter suppression that its going on in Florida, Pennsylvania and Texas, and the vast wealth the octogenarian billionaires are pouring into this campaign, it really is anyone's ballgame.
