Romney 2012: The Last Great White Campaign

[krazen1211]

An incumbent President Romney will not have a very difficult time running another 'Great White' campaign to achieve 64% or 67% of whites similar to Reagan/Nixon as incumbents.

So perhaps there is one more.

It's really funny to read this thread from the party that attacks people of faith and people who are successful in business as they wage the war on whites and their values.

Incumbent Romney?!  Let's see if the guy can even win once before assuming he's going to get reelected.  And as was pointed out Nixon got 18% of the black vote in '72... Romney is on course for 0%.  I would not consider those two equivalent.

I would not consider the results of an actual election to be equivalent to the results of some polling numbers. Yet that seems to have not stopped you from making whatever sweeping conclusions cross your mind.

So whites have different values from others? Sure you aren't a racist?

Of course they do. There is a stark difference in the role of government. Whites feel that the more limited government that we used to have prior to the last few years will advance their personal financial interest. Nonwhites feel differently.

the more limited government that we used to have prior to the last few years

lol krazen thinks the size of government has actually noticeably expanded in the last few years?

Such is evident by the numbers.

Which numbers? Drudge's numbers?

No, the ones you linked. Spending of $3.8 trillion is baffling to many whites who seek limited government, despite your bizarre idea that Barack Obama was not President in 2009.

[krazen1211]

facts have a liberal bias. What matters is your gut. And it just feels like Obama has raised taxes, increased spending and added more job killing regulations.

Yes, $5.3 trillion in borrowing to pay for whatever social programs you want, along with the additional ones you want to create, creates that impression. Here are the last few years of federal receipts and outlays, respectively.


2007   2,567,985   2,728,686
2008   2,523,991   2,982,544
2009   2,104,989   3,517,677
2010   2,162,724   3,456,213
2011   2,303,466   3,603,061
2012 estimate   2,468,599   3,795,547


Some consider this to be a problem.

How can someone, then, increase spending by so little (according to those sources), but still be bloating the deficit? The numbers don't add up in my mind, but maybe I'm not picking up something.

Uh, it's actually quite simple. Thanks to the joy of Obamanomics, tax revenues have plunged off a cliff.

And it goes beyond that.

When the Democrats and liberals scream like little girls about 'Draconian Spending Cuts!!!!!!!!11!!!' people come to the idea that Romney Ryan will engage in, well, spending cutting, and those that favor that are attracted to them.

Go figure!

[krazen1211]

Taxes are at their lowest since the 1950s.

Obama isn't the reason revenue is so low. We are recovering from a financial crisis, so revenue is obviously down. But yes, he has given 17 tax cuts in the past 4 years. I don't think you can attack him for such low revenue when that is the centerpiece of the GOP Recovery Plan.

Ryan's plan is actually 18% of GDP in revenues, which is far higher than Obama has gathered in his first term.

 Voter ID law is about rigging elections for Republicans.

Lol. Some moron is lying on the internet!

[krazen1211]

That should not be the job of political parties.  The state has a responsibility here.  Even if Obama himself drove some of these people to get the ID and paid for it himself out of pocket there would still be problems.  This lady was driven by a Republican law maker to get her id...

Every political party has registration drives, Link.  That is part of their job.

Further, there are a number of nonpartisan groups, like the League of Women Voters, that helps people register.  They have been doing it since 1920.

As I mentioned previously, my church assists in help educate people about voter ID.

Voter ID was passed earlier this year. The only reason it is 2 months before the election, now, is because some lying thug leftwingers threw a tantrum and lost in court.
