Obama campaign just blankets battleground states with negative ads against Romney. Obama campaign has resorted to petty attacks and empty rhetoric, because they have no agenda for a second term.

I still fail to see what agenda Obama has offered for a second term. It appears he has NONE and the only strategy he has is to keep painting a negative image of Romney that he is evil, heartless and hates half of America.

There is no substance whatsoever in any Obama ad. If he talks of his record in ads, it is often misleading statements and stuff proven incorrect by fact-checker (such as creation of 5 million jobs, when the actual figure is 300,000 jobs).

Based on such empty rhetoric and providing no substance whatsoever as to what his economic plan is besides bailing out GM and AIG or printing more cash, I am at a loss to understand how anyone can support him.

He basically has NO PLAN for second term. He is an empty suit. Lay out your second term plan Mr. Obama.

thank you. The polls you proper are precisely the place the country's activity lies, and that i don't mean like Obama's possible limitless strategic deceptions. a hundred million unemployed registering claims for the reason that 2009 places the discomfort for workers under this administration into concentration in techniques the media has disregarded for too long. Is it any ask your self the financial gadget hasn't became for hundreds and hundreds the BLS would not even issue to count selection any further? The Peter Ferrara diagnosis for Forbes shows how a number of our brightest, maximum in a position economists see data that we are nevertheless not out from under the worst 5 years because of the fact the super melancholy. that's nicely worth analyzing, as are the information you have amassed, which Obama apologists clearly refuse to settle for. branch of hard artwork ETA counts look greater truthful and consultant than something coming from the BLS at this element.

Your right he has no plan. And yet everyone is saying how bad Romney's plan is even though Obama made a mess without a new one.

His plan for a second term is to claim Romney is a bad guy.

Maybe you should do some research instead of just watching ads.

You just listed your opinion and some ads, not facts. He has listed his plan numerous times.



EDIT: You can't just look around and say "I'm not going to vote for Obama". You have to actually RESEARCH. If you don't do so, you're technically an uninformed voter.



EDIT: Search "President Barack Obama's $447 billion plan to stimulate job creation."



EDIT: The stimulus is not a proven failure. All of the things you listed does very little to hurt our national debt. Also, where did you get those 'facts'?



Here are some actual facts, and here is what most republicans don't understand, he's accomplished much in his first term:

1. Passed Health Care Reform: After five presidents over a century failed to create universal health insurance, signed the Affordable Care Act (2010). It will cover 32 million uninsured Americans beginning in 2014 and mandates a suite of experimental measures to cut health care cost growth, the number one cause of America’s long-term fiscal problems.



2. Passed the Stimulus: Signed $787 billion American Recovery and Reinvestment Act in 2009 to spur economic growth amid greatest recession since the Great Depression. Weeks after stimulus went into effect, unemployment claims began to subside. Twelve months later, the private sector began producing more jobs than it was losing, and it has continued to do so for twenty-three straight months, creating a total of nearly 3.7 million new private-sector jobs.



3. Passed Wall Street Reform: Signed the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (2010) to re-regulate the financial sector after its practices caused the Great Recession. The new law tightens capital requirements on large banks and other financial institutions, requires derivatives to be sold on clearinghouses and exchanges, mandates that large banks provide “living wills” to avoid chaotic bankruptcies, limits their ability to trade with customers’ money for their own profit, and creates the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (now headed by Richard Cordray) to crack down on abusive lending products and companies.



4. Ended the War in Iraq: Ordered all U.S. military forces out of the country. Last troops left on December 18, 2011.



5. Began Drawdown of War in Afghanistan: From a peak of 101,000 troops in June 2011, U.S. forces are now down to 91,000, with 23,000 slated to leave by the end of summer 2012. According to Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta, the combat mission there will be over by next year.



6. Eliminated Osama bin laden: In 2011, ordered special forces raid of secret compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan, in which the terrorist leader was killed and a trove of al-Qaeda documents was discovered.



7. Turned Around U.S. Auto Industry: In 2009, injected $62 billion in federal money (on top of $13.4 billion in loans from the Bush administration) into ailing GM and Chrysler in return for equity stakes and agreements for massive restructuring. Since bottoming out in 2009, the auto industry has added more than 100,000 jobs. In 2011, the Big Three automakers all gained market share for the first time in two decades. The government expects to lose $16 billion of its investment, less if the price of the GM stock it still owns increases.



8. Recapitalized Banks: In the midst of financial crisis, approved controversial Treasury Department plan to lure private capital into the country’s largest banks via “stress tests” of their balance sheets and a public-private fund to buy their “toxic” assets. Got banks back on their feet at essentially zero cost to the government.



9. Repealed “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell”: Ended 1990s-era restriction and formalized new policy allowing gays and lesbians to serve openly in the military for the first time.



10. Toppled Moammar Gaddafi: In March 2011, joined a coalition of European and Arab governments in military action, including air power and naval blockade, against Gaddafi regime to defend Libyan civilians and support rebel troops. Gaddafi’s forty-two-year rule ended when the dictator was overthrown and killed by rebels on October 20, 2011. No American lives were lost.





And that's just 10. There are 50.



EDIT: The simple answer to your last comment is: millionaires and other wealthy people Republicans worship.



And the reason Romney was crushed on the last two debates is quite simple: switching sides (mid debate), and lying.
