MSNBC Roundup
MSNBC today ran a segment on Mitt Romney entitled: 'Too Little Too Late?' This when Obama has never led (in any legitimate poll anyway) by a factor outside of the +/- sampling error. Oh, and a full month before the election. Oh, and before the first debate.

Lay Down
In fact, Obama has shown himself to be completely tone-deaf when it comes to listening to the electorate. He did not take the historic defeat of the midterm elections as a sign of public disappointment in his policies, as Bill Clinton correctly did. Rather, he decided the voters were simply wrong and ill-informed, and decided to use the ensuing two years to lay the divisive us-vs.-them predicate that he believes will carry him to a second term. (Joel B. Pollak, Breitbart.com, 10/3/2012)

Well put. Pollak is one of the Breitbart acolytes that carry on his legacy

Hey Man
"This is deadly earnest, man. This is deadly earnest. How they can justify, how they can justify raising taxes on the middle class that has been buried the last four years? How in Lord's name can they justify raising their taxes with these tax cuts?" (Vice President Joe Biden, 10/2/2012)

Sarah Palin will (continue to) accept your apologies.

Unburdened
(Obama) gets to the first debate without uttering a single specific idea about a second term, except that he wants “millionaires and billionaires” to pay their “fair share” and will have “more flexibility” when he doesn’t have to face voters.

That’s it. Unemployment, the debt and deficit, the Mideast meltdown — none of it burdens him. He ducks the terrorist attack in Libya as just another day at the office and the mounting death toll in Afghanistan as not his problem.

He’s happiest in front of adoring crowds and hanging with fellow celebrities — he actually called Jay-Z and Beyoncé “role models.” He told Letterman he didn't know what the debt was, yet Letterman makes fun of you (Romney).  (Michael Goodwin, New York Post, 10/3/2012)

Obama's record....kind of reminds us of Bill Murray in Meatballs: "It just doesn't matter, it just doesn't matter, it just doesn't matter...."

Dopes
The City Council voted to repeal its own recent ban on storefront medical-marijuana dispensaries, an about-face that left as many as 1,000 pot shops all but unregulated as officials try to get a handle on a massive legal gray area. (WSJ, 10/2/2012)

No Dope, dope, no dope and now dope again. Welcome to California.
