No Wonder Obama Can't Move the Needle
Barack Obama's campaign of distortion, distraction and division has failed so far.
Despite spending $120 billion in mostly negative ads to smear Republican opponent Mitt Romney, Obama has failed to move the presidential race beyond where it was in June - a virtual tie.
And keep in mind that Romney has not unleashed his own political advertising yet.
More analysis of Obama's failed re-election campaign can be found at Commentary magazine's website:

Obama has millions of fake Twitter followers
Motives of Voter ID opponents exposed
Have you been following the debate over Pennsylvania's new Voter ID
law? Democrats are challenging a common-sense law that requires a photo
ID before casting a ballot, claiming it will prevent many Obama
supporters from voting in November. The letter below was published in
The West Chester Daily Local News and the writer does a great job of exposing Democrats' real reasons for blocking an attempt to prevent voter fraud.
Not really a surprise
I don’t know how many of you recall Gordon Bennett’s letter in
the Daily Local a few weeks ago (“Voter ID Law part of GOP strategy”)
complaining about those mean Republicans in Harrisburg depriving “more
than 700,000 Pennsylvania voters” of their right to vote, most of them
who would “normally vote Democratic.” And I’m thinking (with a bit of
mischief), “What is it about Democrats that they don’t know how to
obtain proper ID like most people?”; and, were I Mr. Bennett, perhaps
I’d be a bit reluctant to raise the question in a public forum.
But then again, should we be surprised? For isn’t this in large
part a constituency that has become so dependent on others for guidance
and assistance that special laws and regulations and entitlements must
be passed and instituted and fostered on the rest of us to accommodate
them?
Consequently, we are told that what is perfectly normal for the
great majority of people ... obtaining photo ID ... is an “outrageous”
suppression of their rights and a way to get Mitt Romney elected, and
the governor’s office should be inundated with calls, express your
outrage, blah, blah, blah. My goodness, such indignation!
In his shoes, seems to me I’d rally the party faithful and get
these people down to the local county Democrat committee, or get some
form out to them, sign ‘em up! How long have these people NOT had
identification? Just a few days, or maybe ... a few YEARS!? How about a
little less whining and showing some initiative? This sounds a little
like New Orleans and Katrina, if you ask me, where people sat around
waiting for help (unlike the victims of Mississippi flooding in the
Midwest), rather than looking out for themselves which, if you’ll pardon
the obvious, is pretty much what one of the major themes of this
election is all about too.

Columnist: Time for Obama to get serious about debt
Jay Ambrose:
Obama worked mightily to get us in this $16 trillion fix, producing record trillion-dollar deficits year after year, and now is working just as mightily to avoid specificity on the issue. About the closest he has come to moving beyond vague generalities is his plan to allow the expiration of a Bush tax cut on people making over $250,000 annually. That recovery-defeating move would provide roughly enough money to cover 20 days of our borrowing averaged over a year.

Sorry folks, but the Constitution Party will not be offering a presidential ticket to Pennsylvania voters on Nov. 6 because it cannot gather enough signatures to make the ballot.
Third-party candidates needed to gather at least 20,601 signatures — 2 percent of the total ballots cast for the highest vote-getter in last year’s statewide elections — to qualify for this year’s statewide ballot, according to the Associated Press.

With
a visit to The Holcombe Group in Sullivan County Tuesday, U.S. Senator
Pat Toomey (R-Pa.) has visited all 67 Pennsylvania counties since being
sworn into office in January 2011.
“Since joining the
Senate, I have traveled to every corner of the state listening to
Pennsylvanians, and I’ve heard the same concerns again and again.
Pennsylvanians are worried about our economy and paying their bills.
They’re concerned about their jobs being threatened by excessive
regulations and rising taxes,” Sen. Toomey said. “I’ll continue to
travel across the commonwealth to hear what Pennsylvanians have to say
and to inform my decisions in Washington.”

Former Obama Supporter Artur Davis to Endorse Romney For President
Former
Alabama Congressman
Artur Davis, who was the first member of Congress not from
Illinois
to endorse President Obama in 2008, will be a featured speaker at the
Republican National Convention and will presumably endorse Mitt Romney
for President.
A
former co-chairman of the 2008 Obama campaign, Davis, then a Democrat, seconded
the official nomination of Obama at the 2008 Democratic National
Convention.
Davis, who is disappointed with the Obama
presidency and radical policies, recently announced he is joining the
Republican Party and
supporting
Mitt Romney.
"The perspectives and
ideas (Davis and other headliner speakers) bring to the convention stage will show all Americans that
Romney and Ryan are the ticket to a better future," GOP Chairman Reince Priebus said. "Former Congressman
Davis especially will give voice to the frustration and disappointment
felt among those who supported President Obama in 2008 and are now
hungry for a new direction."

Poll: Romney cuts into Obama lead in Pa.
A new poll of Pennsylvania voters finds President's Obama once double-digit lead over GOP challenger Mitt Romney dropping significantly as Election Day nears. (Obama won Pennsylvania by 10 points in 2008). Among the highlights of the August 2012 Franklin & Marshall College Poll:
The August 2012 Franklin and Marshall College Poll finds President Obama with a 6 point lead over Mitt Romney, 44% to 38%. Obama is viewed favorably by 46% of voters to 32% for Romney.
More highlights:
1. President Obama leads Mitt Romney, 44% to 38% with 15% undecided; when voters who lean to a candidate are included a similar advantage shows for the president, 47% to 42%, leaving 7% of voters truly undecided.
2. Bob Casey leads Tom Smith, 35% to 23% with 39% undecided, in the U.S. Senate race; when voters who lean to a candidate are included, Casey's lead increases 43% to 28%, but a high proportion still remain undecided (24%).
3. Compared to Romney, Obama is seen as better understanding of the concerns of ordinary Americans, 57% to 30%, better able to handle foreign policy issues, 53% to 34%, better able to handle the job as military chief, 47% to 37%, and closest to respondents' views on abortion and gay marriage, 47% to 37%. Romney now leads as the candidate most prepared to fix our economic problems (44% to 42%) compared to June (38% to 44%).
4. Obama's job performance remains more negative than positive, with 43% positive (good or excellent job) and 56% negative (fair or poor job).
5. PA Voters favor repealing the heath care law 48% (strongly or somewhat favor) to 42% (strongly or somewhat oppose).
6. Almost six in ten Pennsylvania voters believe the state is moving in the wrong direction, 57%, while 30% say it is moving in the right direction.
This survey reflects interviews with 681 Pennsylvania voters, conducted by the Center for Opinion Research at Franklin & Marshall College from August 7-August 12, 2012 (sample error of +/- 3.8 percentage points).

Why judge refused to block Pennsylvania voter ID law
Commonwealth Court Judge Robert Simpson, in upholding Pennsylvania's new voter ID law: "The photo ID requirement … is a reasonable, non-discriminatory, non-severe burden when viewed in the broader context of the widespread use of photo ID in daily life," he wrote. "The Commonwealth’s asserted interest in protecting public confidence in elections is a relevant and legitimate state interest sufficiently weighty to justify the burden."

From The Associated Press:
Romney’s selection of Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan as his running mate marked a huge victory for the tea party. Its roaring influence helped Republicans take back the House in 2010, gaining 63 seats. Since then, its no-compromise positions on deep budget cuts set the parameters of high-profile fiscal fights on Capitol Hill.

Top election official: Pennsylvania law prevents voter fraud
Pennsylvania's top election official sets the record straight about the misinformation Democrats are spreading about the state's new law to prevent voter fraud:
Pennsylvania Secretary of the Commonwealth Carol Aichele in an op-ed published in USA Today:
Because voting is our most important civil right, we must make sure only those legally entitled to do so can vote. All legal Pennsylvania voters who want IDs can get one and vote this November, knowing their vote will not be canceled by illegally cast ballots.
Our voter ID law is to prevent fraud, not voting.
