Actions speak louder than polls…
It's 8:21 on a Saturday morning and according to this photo snapped by Sharon Broadie, this is the size of the crowd that showed up in Powell, Ohio, (just outside of Columbus) to see Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan:
Here's a look at the line to get in, and another look at the crowd from another source. And a real jaw-dropper.
Meanwhile, President FailureTeleprompter is relegated to rationalizing his lack of turnout into a "deliberate" desire for smaller, more intimate crowds. Yeah, that sounds like the Mr. Greek Column we've all come to know and grow tired of.
Meanwhile, the media refuses to report on the size of either side's crowds.
Meanwhile, across the country,
the documentary film "2016" has just opened wide on over 1,000 screens
and in the heart of Hollywood's biggest season hit #3 at the box office.
Meanwhile, though their Media
Palace Guards assure us this is not the case, the Obama campaign's
increasingly desperate and shrill campaign is acting more and more like a
campaign so far behind and so in fear of losing, they feel they have
nothing to lose. From "felon" to "chains" to "Mitt killed my wife" to one bald-faced lie after another,
President Obama has forsaken the dignity of the office and -- should he
win a second term -- all hope of bringing the country together after
the kind of scorched-earth campaign only the terrified wage.
Meanwhile, the media is
behaving in a manner no less shrill and desperate than their
Presidential Master. When the unemployment rate increases, the media
tells us that's a good thing. When the economy shrinks from 4.1 to 1.5%,
the media still call it "the recovery." When an idiot in Missouri says
something stupid about rape and abortion, the media launches into a
week-long narrative accusing Republicans of being soft on rape.
Meanwhile, Obama supports infanticide. Romney opposes abortion except in cases of rape, incest and when the mother's life is at risk. Yesterday CNN released a poll showing 62% of the American people agree with Romney and only 32% with Obama.
This morning the media was still painting Romney-Ryan as the out-of-touch extremists on this issue.
Meanwhile, yesterday, Mitt
Romney made a birth certificate quip and within thirty-minutes those few
words received more media attention (and phony outrage) than the record
number of American casualties currently mounting in Afghanistan.
Meanwhile, as the clock runs
down and campaign days grow more and more precious, three days ago, the
Obama campaign felt it was a good use of the Vice President to send him to the supposedly safe state of Minnesota.
Meanwhile, yesterday, Mitt Romney was in the true blue state of Michigan.
Something is happening in this country
-- something both the Obama campaign and its media cronies know is
happening but won't acknowledge.
What's happening is on the ground and
not yet quantifiable in polling that doesn’t yet have its sea legs. But
it's out there and it's real and before the media and President Obama
are forced to acknowledge it, they're spending every bit of their
dignity and credibility and integrity to kill it.
Red State's Erick Erickson senses it too.
