question: why you hate romney and love obama OR hate obama and love romney ?

I neither love nor hate either candidate.

And your opinion is poorly informed. Under Obama the stock market has gone from just under 8,000 to over 13,000. People made a lot of money. The housing market stabilized. There has been consistant job growth for nearly 3 years. We made the guy who planned the attack on us a priority, and got him. The middle class enjoyed a tax cut, and everyone enjoyed a payroll tax cut.

All Romney has governed is the state of Massachusetts which saw a plummet to 47th out of 50 in job creation, their schools which had been ranked number 1 in the nation before him dropped significantly (and had the funding cut) and the man has not held one position for more than a few weeks. He was going to repeal Obamacare, now he likes it (he should, it was based on the health care law he enacted in MA) he was going to eliminate disaster relief funding but now that we had a disaster, he is all for it. He was pro choice, now he is anti choice. He says whatever he thinks that particular audience wants to hear.

Did you know that Forbes (a notoriously right wing magazine) wrote an article explaining that Obama is the more fiscally conservative president since Eisenhower?

There are a couple of websites you may wish to check out - the first is www.factcheck.org an Annenburg funded think tank (Annenburg's are large contributors to the republican party) and is about as bipartisan as they come. Check anything I just wrote above and you will see that it is the truth. Another is www.politifact.com and have some fun reading how often Romney has been rated "pants on fire" vs any other politician of your choice. They don't pull any punches at politifact and you can finally sort out the truth.

Obama most closely represents the working class. He understands their lives and their struggles. Romney thinks people earning 100K are too poor to be called middle class. Rich people have been president before and the ones who did well were the ones who actually had to hold a real working man's job. Romney never has. He had everything handed to him. So he doesn't understand. Romney also will say whatever to whomever to think he will get a vote. He claims he has a plan for the economy, but won't show it until after the election. Which means he either has no plan or he knows the plan will anger too many people. (Or too many people will realize it won't work.) He wants to return to the failed policies of Bush and double down on them. What little will we know of his plans will increase taxes for the middle class by an average of $2000 a year while cutting taxes for the rich. And backing off regulation is something he supports, even though that cut us where we were four years ago (we are much better now) and it's why we have massive drought and incredible hot weather this summer. He is also anxious to get us into war with Iran. We don't need another war. We can't afford another war. (The source of our biggest money problems - so much so that Bush refused to put those numbers in his budget so that it would look like he was doing better than he was.)

Romney has shown that he can't handle foreign affairs. The lie that he keeps repeating, at a time when there was a crisis going on and people died - all he can think about is which lie will get him political points. Even the GOP have gotten down on him for that.

Obama has plans. Good ones, if he can get them past the GOP blockage. He understands the average American and what they need and want. For example, he wants to fix the infrastructure. That's something that needs doing. (It's kind of like ignoring a hole in your roof.) Katrina was bad because the unmaintained levees failed and they had massive flooding. If we had taken care of the infrastructure, we would have saved far more than it cost. Fixing it would create local jobs and work for small businesses. Those jobs will give money to the real job creators, the consumers. They will spend that money, further stimulating the economy and increasing revenue to government. Which means taxes can be lowered. We will also have fewer people needing safety nets, so government expenditure will go down. But the republicans are against it, leaving it stuck in committee. And Romney is against it. But he has yet to propose anything that would create jobs.

Then there are the social issues. Romney wants big government when it comes to our personal lives. I have heard him say he would ban birth control if he could. We know that he is an advocate of government rape of women with transvaginal ultrasounds. He wants to control our lifetime commitments.

Romney said he doesn't care about the poor because they have safety nets. But any budget he associates with takes away those safety nets. Which means he just doesn't care about the poor.

And let’s not forget the forever power of the Supreme Court. Do you want more extreme right wing conservative activist judges?

My America is about people working together helping everyone to succeed. The GOP idea is every man for himself and the heck with everyone else. (The Ayn Rand philosophy of selfishness - lots of GOPs are big fans of hers.) Which America do you want?

As I JUST put up in my question which doesn't make sense to me:

I really LIKE Obama, yet I wouldn't TRUST him with my daughter, (or son!!),

at all, and definitely wouldn't trust him as president.

Somehow I think I don't LIKE M. Romney so much....too serious, too 'focused',

and 'less fun' than Obama.

So, I prefer Obama as a 'nice guy' but trust M. Romney to do this really horrible job.

I don't hate Obama, I simply think is in over his head and was not qualified to lead this nation having served less than one term in the US Senate. Romney is experienced and knows how to balance budgets and lead this nation. He's done it before, he will do it again. If we re-elect Obama, we know what the next 4 years will bring: more stagnancy and division. It's time for change, a REAL change.

Romney 2012 for recovery, not dependency

how can you hate someone you don't even know its horrible to think america is just able to hate a random person they haven't gotten to know i dont think it matters who is president as long as it benifits all

Love and Hate are strong words...

I hate Obama for his lies:
