It's started a Twitter hashtag #RomneyPlaneFeatures:

Passengers are given a voucher to purchase their own oxygen masks & life-vests. #RomneyPlaneFeatures

A thin plastic shell with no compass. #romneyplanefeatures

Every time the plane hits turbulence the pilot chastises the left wing.

Golden Parachutes -only in Plutocrat class. Moocher class has ejector seats #RomneyPlaneFeatures

Toilets that empty over low income neighborhoods (<$250,000/year). #RomneyPlaneFeatures

#RomneyPlaneFeatures Glass floor to help him look down on people #47percent

#RomneyPlaneFeatures 1% of the passengers get 99% of the room. #RestOfUsRideWithHisLuggage

Two Right Wings. #RomneyPlaneFeatures

Think this wins it, though:

Mitt Romney, scientific genius, on his wife's plane making an emergency landing:

"I don’t think she knows just how worried some of us were," Romney said. “When you have a fire in an aircraft, there’s no place to go, exactly, there’s no — and you can’t find any oxygen from outside the aircraft to get in the aircraft, because the windows don’t open. I don’t know why they don’t do that. It’s a real problem. So it’s very dangerous."

Yeah Mitt, why don't plane windows open?

:lol: idiot

This springs to mind...
 
How are the Republicans not getting absolutely hammered over their obstructionism and voter fraud BS?
 
Some gems on that site. This is all from a single article.

Double-digit leads in national polls and electoral vote projections well over 300 are not unrealistic at all.​

It would not be surprising to see Romney have great performances in the debates​

And coming soon... www.liberalracism.com – a web site exposing the blatant racism of liberals, the ones who loves to labels others racist.​

This one seems to be translated from football to politics from RAWK.

Imagine election night after Florida and Ohio are projected for Romney, when the likes of Diane Sawyer, Brian Williams and Chris Matthews announce that Mitt Romney has won the election and will be our next president. Liberals will be shocked and will not see it coming. Moonbats will be absolutely unhinged. For the rest of us, it will be long over due, after four years of the worst president in the history of the country.​

The writer has some real classics.

Has to be a spoof. Surely.

From one of those Examiner articles:

Michigan: The only disagreement is this columnist looking at the polls RCP shows for Michigan and not trusting any of them, and placing this state in toss up status, and the other four projections putting stock in these polls and calling this state for Obama.

:lol::lol:

His house must be plastered with those mental ultra-conservative paintings.
 
How the feck can we make a case for democracy when this joker has a chance of becoming the most powerful man on Earth..
 
:lol: Romney's ads are so fecking shit. The people in them come across as bad actors, they look as though they've been paid to appear.
 
fecking hell. http://2012.talkingpointsmemo.com/2012/09/brown-staffers-tomahawk-chop.php?ref=fpnewsfeed

What the feck is wrong with that party? He's one of the moderate ones!

Found this response very interesting. I had no idea about it.

Blond, blue-eyed Todd Palin has Native American heritage and uses it to exercise his tribal fishing rights and obtain medical benefits. The Palin kids take advantage of this heritage, as well. Would you say, "clearly they are not" part Indian just because they look white?
 
A right wing friend on FB posted this garbage. I suppose he forgot how FNC pulled all sorts of crap about Kerry. Kerry didn't make asinine statements and come off acting like a silver spoon fed pompous elitist asshole.

Liberal media bias my ass. I too used to drink that right wing koolaid.

Nate on Rasmussen:

Thinking every poll but Rasmussen is skewed is literally as delusional as believing that 9/11 was a conspiracy.
 
Can we stop what was a good discussion thread about polls and swings, into a Romney video hating fest?
 
We're discussing why the polls are so vigorously swinging away from Romney. It just so happens that a lot of the reasons tend to relate to him doing stupid stuff on camera.

But okay, here's one - Ohio. Becoming a lost cause for Romney or not? Losing there in every poll at the moment, not just in the overall horse-race but on pretty much every metric, including the economy.
 
I think we should talk about how Romney loves money from corporations and rich assholes like Sheldon Adelson but thinks teacher's union contributions to campaigns should be stopped because it's a "conflict of interest" according to him.

Cognitive dissonance...
 
Fox just found an excuse to run the Rev. Wright stuff again. They are really hard up now. I expect Bill Ayers to make a comeback too.

There was a good discussion? It was "This guy says all the polls he doesn't like are biased," which prompted comments from everyone (including Nate Silver's tweet that you quoted) along the lines of "What an idiot."

Meanwhile, video of Romney on the campaign trail is, shockingly enough, on-topic for the US Presidential Election thread.

Kerry was a very weak POTUS candidate tbf, but he was running against Bush, the ex-Alcoholic, globally naive, strategically manipulatable son of a former President & part of a Dynasty only equatable with the Kennedy & Clintons who was clearly elevated to office by his family wealth and connections. Neither side could've run with the "out of touch" stuff without shooting themselves in the foot.

That said, the right wing really tried to get him on his War record, which was frankly astonishing considering he was a three time Purple Heart winning soldier and Bush was a veritable draft dodger...So, you know, if anything's devious, it's that.
