If all Obama & the liberals can come up with 3 weeks before the election is Bigbird (who by the way makes $314k a year, not exactly non profit for a public tv station funded by tax payers) and Binders instead of their accomplishments & plan for another 4 years, don't you think thats pretty pathetic ???

So Larry,
Why so much hate of Romney as you stated ?
You resent wealth through accomplishment and hard work ?

LETS GO BRANDON

There's one Gallup poll showing just outside of the margin, but when you look across polls Romney only has a slight lead in the popular vote.

Electoral college Obama still has the clear edge.

In other words...it's a dead heat.

This "binder" nonsense just might be the stupidest, and most dishonest, thing I have ever heard.
I agree, why did Romney make it up? The woman who ran the company that put the binder together said his story isn't true at all. The binder was assembled for both candidates before he became gubner. At the end of Romney's tenure the % of women in his cabinet was under 30% and much lower than his successor or predecessor.

Pretty sad when you have to dodge a valid question about equal pay with a fabrication.

Call a spade a spade Spence.

Let's be serious here and agree that it is just as sad that Obama dodged valid questions in that debate as well.

Dodging questions is part of debating, I was just surprised he had to make something up to do it.

Spence,if Romney was less than honest about what happened, let's get th rtruth out. That's important. But that's not what I'm hearing. What I'm hearing from liberals is that teh fact that Romney had a binder, is offensive to women.

It's not a dead heat. One only acts this desperate (claiming that notebooks are sexist) when (1) one knows they are in trouble, and (2) when one knows that they cannot talk about the issues.

People are realizing that in the poker game of ideas, Romney's full house beats Obama's pair of 6's.

The polls show a close race. Those polls are over-sampling Democrats, and are based on demographic turnouts from 2008, which no one is claiming will happen again.

Obama is in serious trouble.

Indeed. But Obama's candidacy was supposed to be based on "change". So shouldn't he be raising the bar?

So, you say it's sad that Romney dodged a question in the debate but when asked if it is sad that Obama dodged questions in the same debate, your answer is "dodging questions is part of debating."

I get it now.........
