It’s high time to remove his mittens, lace on his boxing gloves and send Mitt Romney out for the big punch we’re all waiting for

Try as they might to portray him as ‘Bain Batman’, ‘Romney Hood’, and the “Romney Killed My Wife” ad guy, the Obama Team is missing the boat on what most aptly describes their Chief Opponent. Mitt Romney is a lukewarm cup of tea.
Make that the lukewarm cup of tea we fervently cling to in the hope it will sometime soon give us something to believe in. A lukewarm cup of tea may leave us frustrated, but is guaranteed better for you than the poison Obama policy is meting out now but will be force-fed should he regain the four more years through re-election that Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev and President Vladimir Putin await with bated breath. “Robin Hood in Reverse” is, as Rush Limbaugh points out, recycled from Democrats circa 1995. “Romney Hood”, like everything else about Obama comes from Hollywood, and from a creative genius that is more Steven Spielberg’s than his own. Obama may have been first-time honest when he admitted that Hollywood will be the tie-breaker in November elections. They’re the ones throwing out most of the lip and money.

“President Barack Obama on Monday told (a) gathering of wealthy donors – many from Hollywood -- “you guys are the tie-breaker” in the upcoming presidential election. “You and the American people,” he added. “Obama made the comment at a fundraiser in upscale Westport, Conn., just hours after he accused Romney of being “Robin Hood in reverse” at another fundraiser in Stamford, Conn. Dubbing the former Massachusetts governor “Romney Hood,” Obama said Romney wants to take from the middle class and give to the rich. (CNSNews.com, August 7, 2012). Notice how in Obama Think the American people are only an afterthought behind Hollywood tie breakers? The ‘Official Hollywood Committee of Name Calling’ will accelerate when you Imagine how Obama’s “tie breakers” praise must have fed the shallow egos of aging film stars stars whose wrinkles keep trumping Botox treatments, no matter how many. It’s a Hollywood world alright, an unfortunate one in which folk keep munching the popcorn tuned in to a World of Pretend while the real one inches daily off the Marxist manufactured mountain put there to end America’s future. Romney’s not killing wives, but if he doesn’t pick up the pace of his campaign he’s killing off conservative voters by strangling their last vestige of real hope and change. Adrenaline replaced campaign blues yesterday when the bastions of the seriously bored began to wonder if Romney’s campaign could be throwing the election. Former McCain campaign staffer, and senior Romney campaign spokesman Andrea Saul blew the opportunity of a lifetime when asked point blank about the ad linking Romney to the death of the wife of Joe Soptic, a steelworker who supposedly lost his healthcare coverage after Bain Capital closed his plant. How many wanted to bang their heads against the proverbial brick wall when Saul responded “To that point, if people had been in Massachusetts, under Governor Romney’s Health care plan, they would have healthcare.” A reality check shows people are not in Massachusetts or Kansas. They are in the fast approaching Socialist State of Amerika. But nowhere is the Hollywood world more obvious than in both upcoming DEM and GOP conventions. After the Greek column introduction of The Messiah back in 2008; the tears of Oprah and Jesse Jackson folks fully expect a contagious carny atmosphere at the DNC this September. Michelle, who will undoubtedly take to the Charlotte, NC stage in yet another outlandish outfit, will be Hollywood rehearsed for the dwindling dog days of August. ‘Jimah’ will be coached for a sure to be eerie video visit. It will be politically incorrect to comment on Elizabeth Warren posing as Pocahontis. But how to explain the unimaginative campaign management of Mitt Romney? The zzzz speakers list they promise proves they have been tuned in too long to the networks. That they assume they can get away with it exposes the kind of campaign they’re running--one in which they are taking far too much for granted. Senator John McCain, Condi Rice, Jeb Bush and Chris Christie? We’ve long ago seen that movie, sported that t-shirt, ate the popcorn and downed the Coke. Doesn’t ‘Mittens’ get it that people are tired of the same old, same old? How about an electric speaker’s list like Thomas Sowell, Allen West and Mark Levin to spark things up? If like the Dems, GOP want to hang on to a Hollywood world, Clint Eastwood would make some people’s day. The old guard being put yet again back on display at GOP and DEM conventions are the same people who got the USA where it is today. Watching the GOP convention the way it’s currently set up would be akin to watching reruns of Fox talking heads like Bob Beckel. With the horror show unfolding daily in America, it’s not only imprudent but downright dangerous to put people to sleep at the GOP convention. What’s to stop people who fall asleep in the beginning of an election race from snoozing right on through Election Day? Earth to the Mitt Romney campaign: Where’s the pop in Mitt Romney’s fizzle; where’s the hitch in his ‘git-along’? It’s high time to remove his mittens, lace on his boxing gloves and send Mitt Romney out for the big punch we’re all waiting for.
