Romney Defeats Obama Campaign In May Fundraising

"Mitt Romney's campaign announced that it and allied campaign committees had raised $76.7 million in May alone. That was about $17 million more than the president's campaign raised during the same time period. Sen. John McCain never once outraised Obama during the 2008 election. In fact, the last time the president was bested by an opponent on fundraising was when Hillary Clinton's campaign brought in $26.7 million to his $22.8 million during the fourth quarter of 2007. Romney's May fundraising win was, in political terms, a punch in the gut leaving Democrats who thought that their presidential candidate could close the super PAC gap in momentary panic...".* Cenk Uygur and Ben Mankiewicz discuss on The Young Turks.

Hey there, did you hear about "BoxObama" (do a Google search for it)? On their website you will be able to participate in a simple boxing game and get an iPad. It is free. Control Gov. Romney and box President Obama or vice versa. Many others have actually played at this point, you may want to join the fun also...

If you want our economy to keep going the same route it is right now... then vote for Obama. If not, Romney!

[Parker cardiel]

Fuck Romney

[Parag0n]

From a foreign point of view I don't think Obama lived up to his election promises that he made to the people of the United States of America.

It was all about Change and Hope and I actually thought the US could at least adjust it's foreign policy and eventually leave Afghanistan and Iraq, however the huge contingent of US Troops around Iran and the 4 Aircraft Carriers, Submarines, Destroyers and underwater drones make me nervous, I really hope the US doesn't start another war.

Good luck.
