Thousands gathered in the Van Dyck Park Thursday to hear Gov. Mitt Romney speak during a campaign rally. Romney's comments focused largely on jobs and the economy. 

"Northern Virginia could well determine who the next president is and I hope you make that decision and get me elected," said Romney.

Romney should be more knowledgeable of foreign policy since he knows every corner of the world he can hide his money! He’s already has international financial ties which run all the way from Switzerland to the Cayman Islands. Never mind that he’s never been involved with politics outside of the US- only his millions of dollars have. Read about the role of Mitt’s money and his Magic Mormon Underwear are playing in the polls at http://dregstudiosart.blogspot.com/2012/05/mitt-romneys-magic-mormon-underwear.html where you can see for yourself the true power of both on display in full color!

Perhaps you should compare Obama's tax returns with Romney's and you'll see who's the most generous with his own money. The tax shelters he used were legal. Stooping to underwear comments in the face of the Middle East crisis, our national debt and the millions of unemployed shows a clear lack of understanding of what matters in the White House. You want to talk about not understanding foreign policy? Whispering messages to Putin, China warning of attack and diminished nuclear arms? Yours is a despicable comment.

There is no place on the planet where this nation is held in as high regard today as it was on the day Obama was inaugurated. While the likes of B Hardin are discussing underwear, slamming Mormons, and waging a personal destruction campaign in the gutter in order to get a man who has failed on every front re-elected, the rest of us. led by Mitt Romney are concerned about the progressing blow-up in the Middle East that was instigated by the hubris of Obama himself. Never have I heard anyone brag so consistently and loudly about all the people "he" has killed--even fellow Chicagoan Al Capone had enough sense to keep that accomplishment between himself and his very closest associates. There was always going to be a reckoning for the Obama drone murders and consequent bragging--it will get him sent home to live by his neighbor and hale fellow well met L Farrakhan. But, those consequences tragically will also fall on every American, though the gutter dwellers will get blind-sided when it happens as they haven't the vision to see beyond the street level of the curb.

Oh please, Obama has nothing to do with Farrakhan. And he doesn't brag and has never said that he alone killed Bin Laden. The exaggerations and hyperbole of some on the Right are just ridiculous. Learn the facts and deal with the issues. And I'm not a gutter dweller.

When Obama crushes Mitt in the election, I hope the right wing kool-aid drinkers don't rationalize by saying "He wasn't a strong candidate" or "We're a nation of idiots." although both statements are certainly true. I hope you realize this election will be a complete repudiation of the republican platform. If you could have kept your ideology out of your politics, you'd be ahead by 20 points. The majority is so sick of your bigotry and your hate. Your values are not my values, so don't call them American Values. Republicans have put party ideology ahead of country and everybody knows it. Your base is dying and our base is growing. Goodbye and good riddance.

I attended the rally yesterday. There wasn't one single thing he said that I disagreed with. I think he would make a great President.

But he may change what he said yesterday... that's the problem I have with him...he changes his mind all the time depending on the circumstance or the reaction. How do you know what to trust about anything he says?

Etch a sketch will ruin this country if elected. He has no morals when it comes to managing a business and would flip flop on any and everything, just as he has done for the past 8 years running for President. Even Jon Huntsman knows Twit's true character. If you are a true Republican, vote for Gary Johnson. He is the only candidate that speaks truthfully.
