Among all Americans, Obama and Romney are knotted at 47 percent each, and among registered voters, the former governor is numerically ahead, 49 percent to 46 percent.
I guess since only one of six candidates makes it into the margin of error for the poll (the one who has been a candidate for 1 week) they ought to take your suggestion and nominate Mickey Mouse.

That was registered voters but still was not a favorable poll for Obama. Good thing the election is in November...2012. People will get a chance to learn about Mitt and his one great accomplishment -- socialized medicine in Massachussetts.

There are few things more successful than a businessman who's failed.
Romney's learned many lessons from last time and he's back to win.
He'll make the election about Obama, now that he has a record. Obama knows his only hope is to outspend any opponent [therefore the announced $1 billion campaign budget].
Unemployment will still be high, and Obama will lose to Romney.

I agree that Romney is the most viable Republican candidate. And I agree that Obama will likely take some blame for the mess he inherited in the next election. But I believe there are still enough informed voters TO NOT MAKE THE REPAIRMAN HAVE TO PAY FOR THE DAMAGE CAUSED BY SOMEONE ELSE!

He got his ass whipped by McCain in the GOP Primary season. As the epitome of big money, he'll definitely help the Ds get out the vote.
Also, don't forget the religious right. Are they going to hold their nose and vote for a practicing Mormon?
Maybe he'll make the race about Obama's mental illness, eh TAE?
That said, are we sure Romney was born in this, er, solar system? I mean can we really be sure those are his TEETH in those pictures? I think we need to demand he produce his birth certificate! And I'm not talking about the one he got from the Men in Black! And with a name like (catcher's) Mitt, how do we know he isn't a homo?
Bring it, Mitt!

I am not sure if it is good for us or bad that Barry O could not have just voted present as President. It will surely help the Republican challenger that he has a record. It is a bad one at that.

AB0-ANYONE BUT OBAMA
Obama was elected on emotion and now he has exposed his lack of experience and incompetance. He just lost his 6th. financial advisor, Goolsby leaves today. He is an empty suit, with a liberal agenda and no clue how to create jobs.

If you are suggesting that Romney's an alien visitor, or perhaps a hybrid between an alien and a human, as far as I'm concerned it's entirely possible.

What record is that? You must be referring to the one where Obama created more jobs in one year than Bush created in eight, right? Or perhaps you're talking about the Healthcare plan that will reduce the deficit by $132 Billion over ten years? Oh oh, I know! You're talking about that Osama Bin Laden dude right? Errr, no must be referring to the unemployment rate right? The rate that was at 9.8% back in December and is now down to 9.1%? Wait, I got it...the 12 straight months of private sector growth for the first time since 2006? Naw, must be the 1.3 million jobs added last year alone? No, I think I got it now, you're talking about the 30 million people who will now be able to afford healthcare?
You were saying...?

Or is it that claim of saving jobs that has no proof. Or perhaps you're talking about the Healthcare plan that will reduce the deficit by $132 Billion over ten years? You are joking right? That thing is gonna cost us through the nose. Have you actually read that damn thing? Oh oh, I know! You're talking about that Osama Bin Laden dude right? Oh ya Bush had no contribution to that. Errr, no must be referring to the unemployment rate right? The rate that was at 9.8% back in December and is now down to 9.1%? Oh how you forget he said it would not go past 8%. Wait, I got it...the 12 straight months of private sector growth for the first time since 2006? Naw, must be the 1.3 million jobs added last year alone? How did you get that number is that part of the saved jobs they keep talking about. No, I think I got it now, you're talking about the 30 million people who will now be able to afford healthcare?

I happen to know a lot of people that will still not be able to afford it under the Healthcare bill and they are assigning IRS agents to collect fines if you do not have it. Forced Health care that is gonna cost insane amounts. If it is so good why have several states and several large businesses gotten waivers? Wow you are so delusional.

Once again, we're seeing a lot of your personal horseshit opinions, but not one single source to back it up with. Put up or shut up and stop wasting everyone's times with your regurgitated Sarah Palin soundbytes and completed unfounded opinions. Go do a little reading Sarah, and come back when you're better equipped to have a real debate with me.
Just to show you and everyone following along just how misinformed and full of shit you really are:
Q: Will the IRS hire 16,500 new agents to enforce the health care law?
A: No. The law requires the IRS mostly to hand out tax credits, not collect penalties. The claim of 16,500 new agents stems from a partisan analysis based on guesswork and false assumptions, and compounded by outright misrepresentation.

I won't even waste my time on anything else you've said.

Wyldeman, you had me at "Bush had no contribution to that" when talking about that Osama bin Laden dude.
WTF are you talking about? Bin Laden made Bush look like a chump for 8 years while he led the world into a financial meltdown from which we may never recover ... at least not in our lifetimes. Bush's contribution to that deal can be measured in the blood of hundreds of thousands, the ruination of millions of lives, the destruction of at least two nations (probably three, counting the U.S.) and the destruction of a world economy. Between tax cuts for the rich and trillions of dollars spent on bombs, planes, faulty armor (remember that?), bottled water, maimed soldiers (chit, I forgot, we're not really paying much for them, are we?), I'd say Bush actually had quite a profound contribution to that. I stand corrected!
I tried clicking on all of those blue words in your post and guess how many went through to even a third-grader's "I hate broccoli" blog? But here's something you might find interesting:
http://costofwar.com/en/
This shows that Texas taxpayers are on the hook for $98 BILLION (as of now) for Bush's wars. Do you realize how many textbooks we could revise for that kind of money?
Don't even need to get into the healthcare debate with you. You obviously haven't read any of it, don't know much about it and aren't willing to bruise your brain learning about it.
However, Paul Revere said it best when he said, (fill in the blank Sarah!)
BTW -- as the weeks go by, I'm betting that Romney will be completely rejected by the Christian right of the GOP and eschewed by the Tea Bagsters. Naw, the FOP, er GOP is too fragmented to nominate anyone who's not a loony tune this time around. I would not be surprised to see a conservative third candidate make a run.

As it stands now, I see Romney as a significant problem for Obama in the general election. I view him as the only current Republican candidate in the field with enough appeal to attract Independent voters in November 2012. Therein lies Mitt's problem! He is not far enough to the Right to attract hard core Republican voters in the primaries. Unless Mitt can somehow pull off a major primary miracle, how he matches up against Obama in the November '12 general election is a moot point.
IMHO, Romney should be much more focused on winning the Republican primary at the present time. Mitt's chances of winning delegate strength in the Deep South (including Texas) and Western States are somewhere between slim and none. In the highly unlikely event Mitt survives the primaries, he can then focus his attention on winning the general election.
Mitt, I hate to be the bearer of bad news but the Republican Party's primary deck is heavily stacked against you! I wish you luck, cuz you're damn sure gonna need it!
