Question of the day: Do you know anyone who supports Obama in 2012 who didn’t support him in 2008?

Let’s give credit where credit is due: We saw this question asked over at Ace of Spades HQ and thought it was a great way to get some discussion going.

no obama 2012Seriously. Do you know anyone who’s changed their mind about Obama in a positive direction?

Someone who thinks he’s doing such a bang-up job that they’ve become an Obamatron?

Someone who hears the question “Are you better off today than you were four years ago?” and answers yes?

If so, tell us more. Talk amongst yourselves.

  • I know of nobody who has jumped onto the Obama bandwagon. It would be inconceivable to me. I can't see how a thinking person would be excited and encouraged by what has happened over the past 3.5 yrs. A few days ago our "constitutional scholar" President actually said that the job of the president is to make sure everyone has a fair shot. I must have missed that day in Mr. Novak's 11th grade American Government Class... His smooth talk remains just as empty, "promises" are unfulfilled, mis guided notions of government and his lack of any coherent plan seem so blatantly obvious that only an idiot would be reconsidering and supporting him. But the most amazing thing is that Romney is the best the opposition can come up with. But the lesser of two evils is the lesser of two evils.

  • Around my little part of the world I can't find anyone that supported him in '08 much less now. Even though the slim majority in my county, and state, voted for the Obummer I cannot find one now who did.

    Seems funny to me since I live in a very rural part of New Mexico and I haven't noticed any of my neighbors leaving nor new anti-Obama folks moving in. Ya think they are too ashamed to admit they made a mistake?

  • Yes. I know a guy. Though his support for Obama is negatively motivated.

    He says if Ron Paul isn't nominated this time he's going to vote for Obama. This guy's a bit of a disciplinarian and his theory is that suffering will teach America a lesson about flirting with socialism. Kinda like the father who catches his kid smoking and makes him smoke the whole pack.

    • The scary part of that is it did not work for me and I smoked for over 40 years. What if the slim majority of Americans do the same thing and elect this clown again instead of quitting?

      • Agreed. While this might work for a ten-year-old kid, for a nation, the cure is worse than the limited version of the disease we're suffering from. I think he's just being asinine.

  • I don't know a single person however I know MANY individuals who are rooting for good old Ron Paul for 2012 but didn't root for him in 2008. RON PAUL FOR 2012!!!! WE NEED A CONSTITUTIONALIST IN OFFICE!!!!

    • I love Ron Paul on the economy, there's none better. It's some of his other ideas I have a bit of a problem with.
      If I were a one issue voter, I would vote for him.

      • I think his major problem is his lack of super-charisma, a vital component in the governmedia controlled sheepelectorate. Virtually all the things he says should be gone should go. Several of them cannot just simply be cut, there must be some transitional movement and those he has never impressed upon me. I would still vote for him in a blink over most anyone else who is running so far. The people I really want aren't in it... yet.

        • Maybe the good ones will get in later. Why give the MSM any extra time to beat them up?

          • I'm glad yall think he is a good politician and all. I tell you he is one honest politician. In all his interviews he speaks his mind, no bs or no dancing around like we see with all the other politicians. This man means serious business. He is not in it for the power but for the true love of the United States of America, the land of the free.

          • No doubt he's a patriotic American. I like that his profession isn't law, too. He is one very smart dude but the MSM will make him out to be Mr. Magoo when they feel the strings pulled that tells them to. Unfortunately there are too many putzes voting these days and that would top it. Now if he were to get nod from Bolton - he is sounding like he's readying the cannon - to take VP that combo could probably win it. Bolton is a straight shooter with all the necessary components to show the world 0 is just a whistle of the Soros Guild. That is, among myriad other reasons, why I hope John Bolton steps in.

  • If You Voted For Obama , So They Wouldn't Call You A Raciest , Vote For Someone Else , So They Wont Call You , an IDIOT

  • Yes.I work with a guy who fell off of a horse and suffered severe,irreparable brain damage.Now he loves obama and Sillyputty.He says he can relate to obama now.

  • Millions more (legal and illegal) will vote for Obama as the economy worsens. They will line up in the government food lines and then line up come election time and vote for the guy who campaigns on how the republicans want to take away your food, housing, medical, and other govt programs. Obama, "from each based on their ability, to each based on their need".

  • I have a flaming libtard living across the street from me. He told me that if Hillary had gotten the nomination, he would have voted McCain, but he was solidly Obama. He's not gotten any smarter in the last 2-1/2 years.

    • My wife sadly enough won't admit to the mistake she made. She recognizes we've gone downhill, but refuses to acknowledge that the O has anything to do with it. She watches a lot of CNN, but lately i've seen her watching Fox. Her brother just lost his job and she's starting to see the light. A little more FOX and she will come around.

      • My lady claims to be a liberal. I keep showing her examples of liberalism that she absolutely disagrees with, but she still insists that she's liberal. I ask her why she votes for people that she has fundamental disagreement with, and her only answer is that she can't see herself ever voting for a Republican. Well, at least that part of her argument I can understand.
