Re: Looks like Obama is winning this election right now
no, Obama is much more eliquent and knowledgable that Mitchell.
It helps when calling someone eloquent that you actually spell it correctly...
Obama is definitely a good orator... Yet, he is awful when challenged by an unscripted comment or persistent pressure, and he has proven numerous times that he falters without the teleprompters…
Plus, many have already woken up to falling victim to the pied pipers tune from his hollow speeches of the last campaign, and have seen how his words don’t match his actions anyway… I wouldn’t be so secure in hoping Obama can sweet talk people into following him again…
Also, Obama is expected to be able to outdebate Romney, so there’s another advantage for Romney going into them…
It also helps when judging who is more knowledgeable, that you know how to spell that as well…
In what way is Obama more knowledgeable, than Romney?
Romney graduated from BYU summa cum laude (with highest praise), and then got a joint MBA and JD from Harvard, graduating as a Baker Scholar for being in the top 5% of his Harvard Business School class (even organizing a study group, which turned around all the people in the study group’s grades to get all A’s)
Then went on to be extremely successful in business, even starting his own business that earned him hundreds of millions of dollars…
He then went on to lead and organize the Olympics… which included international diplomacy, eliminating corruption, and organizing large scale construction projects, among other things…
Then he went on to lead a government, where as Governor of MA he closed a budget gap of nearly $3B in 2 years without raising taxes, and created a $2B rainy day fund in just 2 years… He also wrestled control of the Big Dig, the largest construction project in US History. He did this with a legislature dominated by the opposition party, as well.
He has also organized and lead the building of a local parish of his church, co-lead a Mormon mission, and raised 5 sons who are quite accomplished in their own right. He’s bilingual, and can speak fluent French, which he learned while on the mission, but used effectively when organizing the Olympics.
Obama may know more about the inner workings of this administration… he might be apprised of the current terror/security threats from briefings… and he might be more knowledgeable about being a drugged up waste of flesh… But, Romney would once getting those briefings, and he would be setting up his own administration, so he'd know it in and out (and you can guarantee that there'd be no Holder in it)...
On the other hand, Romney is quite accomplished, and master of numerous disciplines… in particular he is extremely versed in what it takes to lead large organizations, create growth, rebuild broken economies, balancing a budget, working with an opposition party to get things accomplished, managing large scale construction projects, create business, etc. (you know… all the things needed in a president at the moment)
Obama is yet to show he can manage a large organization effectively, balance a budget, work together with an opposition party to accomplish anything, oversee large scale construction projects effectively, create business, etc.
Fewer people can post in this thread now. I suggest getting back on topic, which is campaign finance and spending.
