Poll: Romney Ties Obama in Florida

• Sorry, but polling Miami about the Republican candidate is not going to give a clear picture.

• I heard it was so cold in the Northeast that Romney had to wear socks over his flip flops.

• I know any incumbent President has tremenduous power but Obama's chance for re-election is somewhat distressing to me based on his abysmal record. I keep wondering if we're getting to the point to where so many Americans are dependent upon government that it doesn't matter how terrible a liberal governs he'll get re-elected. Hasn't this basically been the situation in California for quite awhile already? And Rubio should accept the VP slot as a service to his country if asked despite his protestations that he's not interested.

  • I am not sure Rubio can BE Vice President. If something happened to the President, he could not step into those shoes, since he is not native born. He is a naturalized citizen.

    • He was born in Miami, although there is a huge Cuban population there, it is still part of the US.

      • Ok, thanks for that. Somehow I got the impression that he came here as a baby with his parents. Glad to get set straight.

        • His parents left Cuba in 56 seeking to upgrade their economic ability. They didn't flee the Castro regime, as had been said, so that's what the liberals started pounding on. That, and his parents not having been citizens at the time of his birth. They like the idea of his eligibility being questioned, since he'd likely win any office he sought, much to their dismay. I'm sure they'll beat that issue until it hurts. They won't be happy about him giving access to all his papers either. You know these sneaky Republicans and how they like to keep everything on the up and up really pisses the commie libtards off.

      • But... but... but... his parents were not naturalized citizens at the time of his birth (and he's not a fokking commie)! He cannot run for a position that might put him in line for the throne... I mean the Oval Office because only sons of dual citizenship (Brit/American) Kenyan nationals (and fokking commies) can qualify for outside-the-constitutional prerequisite blah-dah-dee-blah.

• The confusion is understandable, Romney is more like Hussein than his own VP!

  • Well yeah. Not only that but romney is significantly more qualified to have been the veep than that fokking maroon that got the gig. biden got the gig only cuz hillary woulda had barry's blood doing the uphill drip if she had the job. What a marvelous load of crap we have on the hill!
