The crazy was on parade today in Ohio before and during Mitt Romney's town hall at a manufacturing plant, but before we get to that it should be noted that Romney was speaking at a plant that may not have existed if it weren't for the Obama Auto Loan.
Before Mitt Romney took the stage Ohio State Auditor Dave Yost took the stage and did his best stand-up routine ripping on the President. The crowd ate it up when Yost compared the President's Bin Laden raid to a clown selling hamburgers.
Ohio State Auditor Dave Yost: I heard all this stuff in the past couple weeks about the President claiming credit for killing Osama Bin Laden. I'm glad that he is dead. Bin Laden that is (laughter). But you know, it strikes me a little weird. That's like giving Ronald McDonald the credit for the Big Mac you had for lunch. I mean everybody knows it's the guy at the grill that deserves the credit. Not the pitch man on TV! (Applause)
Watching the video, it's clear Yost fancies himself an amateur comedian and the crowd enjoyed what he said. Of course, candidate Romney has gone further, praising the President for his courageous decision to take out Bin Laden. In fact, it's not clear that Romney would have made the same decision based on his 2007 rhetoric.
Then there was Yost's remarks about Obama not being in touch with the middle class. And, oh yeah, one of the people questioning Romney today said the President should be tried for treason.
And then there was the thing about Mitt Romney's foreign taxes. Not a good day for the Mitt-ster!

Self-Implodes seems to apply more to your comments than Mitt Romney's. You may have been eating to many of those hamburgers the clown selling, it sure looks that way.
Mitt Rmoney, not only he stashed his money abroad, but we have to reimburse him the money he pays in taxes to foreign countries on that stashed money. The US taxpayer indirectly pays money to Swiss, Cayman Islands, China, Macau,.. ,etc, because Mitt Rmoney has stashed his money in bank accounts in those countries. How can anyone believe that this out-of-touch dude loves this country, as he claims he does?
The question was absolutely appropriate, and the person who asked clearly knew what he was talking about. We want to see more of Mitt Rmoney's 10+ years of tax returns.
Here we go again with some more psycho talk. These extreme conservatives think that it is their way or no way. The woman who spoke sure doesn't know what the word 'treason" even means. Fortunately the number of people that are aware of the crap that the GOP/Tea Party is dishing out is increasing with their attacks on women's health, food for the hungry, voting rights of the young, minority and elderly. To me, these act are unconstitutional an inhumane.
Romney the robot is an azz, and yost is worse, talk about a pair of clowns
This is Palin w/o McCain all over again
I can't believe these people but then again yes I can. For the most part the people attending his rally's are about half dead, weak minded sheep that believe everything that those idiots tell them. The others are either millionaires or wannabe's and I can understand if your a millionaire big tax breaks and such but the rest of the bunch their.......WHY? Republicans through history have never cared about your non-money having, poor trash weak minded itiots except your vote that's IT!!......wake up your on the wrong side
They're more like Trained Seals that roll over, Clap, Honk Horns, Blurt out Grunts and Squeals for a Rotten Fish Treat from (Mitt, Kochs Rep/TP) their Handlers!
The plot is getting good President Obama should be tried for treason - There are 80-90 Communist serving in the US House - President Obama spiked the ball on the 1st anniversary of the killing of bin-Laden You can't make this stuff up
And you still believe in the tooth fairy, Santa Clause, and the Easter bunny, correct?
Nah hey are smoking mittens magic under pants
Bill lay off the Kool-Aid.
How Pres.Obama could say Romney is patriotic is beyond description.With as many tax dodging foreign accounts that he has, there is no way he is a patriot.It has alway's pissed me off to hear of these wealthy people hiding their money in Swiss and Cayman Island bank account's.But to have a Presidential candidate hiding his money in them is unbelieveable.

Romney is unbelievable on so many levels. First level, every time he opens his mouth he lies. Secondly, he is entirely out of touch with the average American and has no desire to GET in touch. Thirdly, his policies are the ones from the Bush nightmare.
His motto should be, "Let's go back to what didn't work!"
This character does not belong anywhere near the white house.
We all know what the commonly accepted penalty is for treason.
Ever since his inauguration, there has been a sector of the population that will not be satisfied until the president is killed.
How will we ever root out such hatred?
Romney has the support he has because Obama is black. simple as that. The mere fact that a black president is in office just irks their skin!. They will collapse this country, economy etc to make Obama look bad. Sad thing is we are paying for it, the PEOPLE.
well one more stupid remark from small-minded people that have no clue what they are saying or the crap they're spreading. i have something to say to that OBAMA 2012.
pkolson, We can't rout it out, all we can do, as Democrats, is vote in great numbers.
I have never seen such misguided hatred and delusion in my entire life as what some people feel toward our president.
Romney's last three ads about Obama won the Pants-on-fire award. He just lies and lies and figures there's enough uninformed people out there that some of it will stick. Unfortunately, he's right.
these people have no clue what's going? It is ridiculous to be part of a Republican party who only cares about millionaires, abortion etc... Their agenda is far more socialist than democrats.Their job is to put our interests first, to do what we pay them to do!. It is not to propose,enforce their ideals, beliefs , agendas, lobbying groups agendas on us. This is not what the constitution is about!. Our forefathers wanted a gov't for the people to control, not a president, not a senator etc... and he we are. You want to try Obama for treason then by God you must try all these republicans who flip flop to get your vote then put their agenda first. example Scott Walker!!!!! He should be tried for treason, perjury etc......
their agenda is extreme and fascist...make no bones about it....Democrats and Obama are the boogeymen and they will not rest untill they have a one party system...theirs........keep fighting the hypocrisy from the right
I wouldn't expect Mitt to stand up to those comments because he is afraid of pissing off his base. No backbone at all and his campaign is full of projections.
What was Romneys answer he didnt even answer the womans questions. just a whole lot of hot air.
his silence speaks volumes....
All I can say when I heard Romney was in Ohio I said UGH! IF anyone out there in FACEBOOK LAND believe the crap that he is selling you, all I can say your in a world of hurt. his goal is to keep the rich people richer, the oil prices will go sky high, and the big wigs at wall street will keep their CHRISTMAS BONUSES! When a person think about it there is know why he would be smart enough in foreign affairs!
What a bunch of non thinkers those people were in that crowd. Laughing at bad jokes about the person whose actions allowed you to keep your jobs. Talk about biting the hand that feeds you. If Romney was president you would have been shutdown by now.
If anyone should be tried for treason it's Bush/Cheney for leading the country into a trumped up war and using 'enhanced methods of interrogation'. They should be tried for war crimes.
it is strange that they would sit there and applaud the very same man that would have sent them packing......truly, truly dumb....guess reading, writnng and arithmatic were not their strong suits back in school or more likely home schooled
Looks like the Obama Presidential Campaign is far from a slam dunk!!!
The American People are waking up and finally starting to pay a attention
to this most important election!!!
Then in reality mittens can't keep relying on his magic under pants to win people over as we can all clearly see only the craziest of the crazies support mittens.
As of today the Presidential Election is at a statistically TIE!!!!
So keep minimizing Romney supporters
" to win people over as we can all clearly see only the craziest of the crazies support mittens."
Many of us can say the same thing about President Obama supporters but then we would be going down to your own level of name calling
Keep cheering on Romeny and good luck with your female health care needs.
What clear thinking woman would support someone like him who is backed by people who do nothing more than daily take away your rights as a woman?
Shes addicted to mittens magic under pants. BTW, this could be one of our cross dressing trolls who keeps getting banned, what gives him/her away is it hopes to hide its writing style by posting short sentences.
melinda, here ya go. And this is just ONE poll in a major swing state. I can post more if you like.
Obama Leads Romney In Virginia: Poll
5/5/2012 9:37 AM ET
(RTTNews) - A new Washington Post poll shows President Barack Obama leading presumptive GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney in the battleground state of Virginia, a clear sign the President is so far enjoying a modest but comfortable lead in the race.
The poll published May 2 showed Obama leading Romney by 51 to 44 percent, just outside the poll's margin of error. Obama won Virginia in 2008 by six percentage points - the first Democratic presidential candidate to do so in 40 years - but the state has tended to swing back and forth. Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell, a Republican who won in 2010, is rumored to be among Romney's vice presidential prospects.
The Post's poll surveyed 1,101 adults in Virginia from April 28 to May 2. Of the total surveyed, 964 were registered voters.
The results show Obama topping Romney in the swing state by 18 percent among female voters and by 23 percent among "moderate" commonwealth voters but also highlighted if Romney picked McDonnell as his running mate, it would not change voting patterns for 70 percent of Virginians.
A Public Policy Polling poll published this week substantiated these findings. The poll found Obama leading Romney by 8 percent with McDonnell as running mate again making no difference.
On the negative side for the Obama campaign, 66 percent of respondents in the Post poll said the country was on "the wrong track." But Obama's job approval ratings were mostly favorable - 53 percent said they approved "strongly" or "somewhat" of the president's performance, while 44 percent said they "strongly" or "somewhat" disapprove.

Ah - be nice to Melinda - "she" is really good comrade from last month with new pretty babushka on head. Comrade Melinda is forced to say these things by "her" cruel masters who require 10 posts a day. We must be supportive and sometimes agree with "her". Say things like "#1Fox" and "MSNBC ratings in toilet". we are so glad "she" now has working little fingers to make capital letters. it was so hard to read posts last month.
sometimes melinda may get tired and post to 8 day old dead posts. this gets "her" in trouble with masters so we need to watch her and offer correction but in nice way as deserving to old comrade.

WASHINGTON — With six months until Election Day, the race between President Barack Obama and Mitt Romney has tightened into a statistical dead heat
A new POLITICO/George Washington University Battleground Poll finds the presidential race between President Obama and former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney to be very close, with Romney leading by a single point — 48% to 47%, among likely voters.
More important is the 10-point lead, 48% to 38%, Romney has among the critical Independents voters. That confirms Romney’s six point lead among Independets that Gallup found last month.
The Battleground poll also found that Romney has a “6-point lead among those who describe themselves as extremely likely to vote in November.”
Other interesting findings from the new Battleground poll include:
comrade melinda,
i am much impressed with your new person. you have learned to use little fingers when typing. do your masters approve of your posting same message over and over in different msnbc blogs? just be careful not to post to 8 day old dead posts like last time. let us have good commie comrade party and sing old songs from last month like "#1 fox" and "msnbc ratings in toilet". those were good days - no? you learn new phrases such as "statistical tie" and "statistical dead heat". these are good phrases - not as good as #1fox - but still good. you should repeat them in all of your posts.
i remain your big fan and will try to protect you from rude liberal posters who do not understand that your masters force you to say things you do.

Like i said if it wasn't for our current President the Auto industry would be Bankrupt righ now. but the Republicans first hand almost wiped out the auto industry. also romney said nothing that our President should be tryed for treason. Please people quit bashing the President and start looking how romney is handling himself. Romney wants to eliminate or cut in to programs that help elderly and also want to cut funding to Social Security. before he can talk about making cuts to progams why don't congresss and mitt take a pay cut in wages.
Wake up people a Republican vote is a vote wasted, the Republicans will stick it to you where the sun dosn't shine. I guess only the educated voter is smart enough to see the light and know what the Romney team will strip away from the average working individual. I only hope that there are enough educated people who will vote for the Democrats.
