Rmoney losing ground in key states?
Ohio Pennsylvania,Michigan, and Wisconsin Obama pulling ahead by 5 to 7 points !! Rmoney KNOWS the OUTSOURCING ADS are killing his chances...Is that what he deserves for backing the export of American jobs to foreign shores for OBSCENE profits for shareholders ??
METFAN YANKEE Problem is America through the LOBBIST corporate America uses to scam our system GET REWARDED while out sourcing and exporting jobs. The answer would be to have American companies be REWARDED by taxes at maybe TEN percent while out sourcers and exporters be made to pay 35% !! And any company EVADING AMERICAN TAXES with off shore accounts, THEY should be DENIED American Markets !! THEN,, you would see jobs RETURNING to AMERICA !!! You shouldn't REWARD those who would DESTROY Americans ways of life and living standards !! Profit is one thing,,at the cost of Americans and our living standards,,THAT's TRAITORIST !!

An American Businessman true to America and Americans !!
Metfan,, I got your point !!! Problem is without the AMERICAN MARKET for all the import garbage, they wouldn't be able to SELL their third world products. They LIMIT our imports, and RESTRICT quanities in their countries, while THEY manipulate OUR markets, and KILL other American Mfr's.!! With YOUR logic, America should be in a race to the bottom. And what will happen then is these corporate vermen will move on to the next market available and corrupt it.. Any company which takes actions to EVADE American taxes, should be DENIED our markets !!

Yes. Although there are generally considered 12 "battleground" states, I am focusing on 4 states; Florida, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia. These 4 will give a clear indication of who wins. Romney needs to win 3 or all 4 to ensure a victory, while President Obama needs 2, but could conceivably win with just 1. The current average of polls in each of those 4 states shows President Obama leading in all 4 states. These states started moving toward President Obama before the Supreme Court ruling, although some national polls have been taken since the ruling and the average of those show President Obama with a lead. Personally, I would rather wait until Labor Day to see if there is a clear trend.
Btw, the CNN poll is a bit of a joke and an outlier, as their 15 "battleground" states include what are normally Republican states. And, as they haven't broken the poll down, it's pretty useless.

I don't really know if you are asking a question or ranting, but Wisconsin and Michigan are almost always blue states.
It may lose him some votes, but at least he is doing what he believes is right, instead of just forming his entire agenda based on winning the election (need I name anyone else? lol). Corporations may not exactly like overseas outsourcing, but it is almost required to remain competitive in the global economy. Why would you pay an American $14 an hour to screw drillbits when you can pay a foreign worker $5 ?
Not to say there aren't companies that hire Americans instead, because there are thousands of Americans that like to give jobs to our fellow countrymen... it's just that you never hear about them since they are almost never as successful as the ones who outsourced. It's all about what your priorities are as a company.
Did my reply just go in one ear and out the other for you? I got your point when you asked the question. I was trying to explain WHY companies have to outsource to keep our country competitive. Or would you prefer if we kept more Americans employed and also fall behind countries like China that know what it takes to be the best?

Obama is also out sourcing Jobs...we have 10% Unemployment and Illegal Alien Mexican Amnesty to prove it. Obama is also raking in 72,000 a month from overseas investments. So it's Tit for Tat. The George Soros adds have proven nothing.

And the latest CNN poll shows Romney up by 8 points in the battleground states. All this proves is that polls aren't very reliable this early in the campaign. Try not to get too excited by any one poll.
