Iowa’s Largest Newspaper Publishes Surprise Cover On Romney, Obama
The Des Moines Register, regarded as one of the best election coverage papers in the country, had a telling front page headline today:
The Register writes that “this must be what momentum looks like:”
Cedar Rapids, Ia. β This must be what momentum looks like.
It was a dramatic entrance into Iowa for Mitt Romney on Wednesday β as stirring music played, his campaign airplane touched down at the Eastern Iowa Airport, taxied toward a hangar and parked just 50 feet behind the stage, his campaign motto βBelieve in Americaβ visible along its fuselage.
Romney stepped down the jetway to meet a cheering, chanting crowd of more than 3,000 and deliver a high-energy speech that was by turns sharply critical of incumbent President Barack Obama and confidently optimistic about the nationβs future under new leadership.
Iowa remains a crucial swing state with seven electoral votes and although it has trended Obama in this cycle, the state is now polling locked, at 48% Obama 48% Romney.
As we reported on Wednesday, the Register is set to make its presidential endorsement this weekend.

Posted on October 25, 2012 at 2:34pmThe Des Moines Register is an ultra liberal, worthless rag. The only reason they would do this is for their bottom line. I know they will still endorse BO and if he manages to win/steal re-election, the Register will have a gloat fest for days and days………

Posted on October 25, 2012 at 2:53pmOr the editorial board didn’t like Obama trying to shut up the press. Then Obama released it on his site and not allowing the Des Moine Register, so they are a little miffed.
Remember that Obama insulted the media earlier this week by calling them ignorant and not having a good memory ( http://www.thedailycandidate.com/video/2012/oct/obama_media_memories.html ). Sorry Mr. President, its called the internet.
HE TAKES THE MEDIA AND UNION FOR GRANTED AND THAT MAY BITE HIM HARD.

Posted on October 25, 2012 at 6:38pmthe bottom line – the country is for change this time- and needs it faster. can’t waste another 4 years of our children’s lives. the paper should publish truth- and romney does have the momentum– leading in the national polls. mitt romney is someone we can trust to think about our children and make wise choices. we don’t want to be greece- we don’t want to think we have money coming to us only to find out that it isn’t there- then have to go a begging- then after even begging we only get 60% of what is promised. the government shouldn’t promise us things that it can’t support and that will bankrupt. we will be much better off relying on ourselves instead of the government. if you know history, look at the countries that rely on the gov., most are 3rd world countries and very poor. government just makes it easier to have corruption. obama wants to get rid of the private sector and head toward a socialism – close to communism. that is his agenda.

They seem bent on the idea of welcoming this “revolution” we are hearing about, as if it’s a good thing. It is NOT a good thing. To them, it’s just, “lock, load, and wait”. Personally, I prefer to see things a little more optimistic, “lock, load and try to prevent it from happening”. The last thing we want here is a civil war to break out. Not only will it destroy us, but it will welcome our enemies to come in from all angles; commies from the left, Islam extremists from underneath (maybe within) and the UN from the right. It will be the end of the United States as we know it and freedom. At least with Romney, we will have more time, more room to get things back on track.
If you have any love for your fellow man, and your children, both born and unborn, you will do whatever you must to prevent this “revolution”. This is the way we do it.

Posted on October 25, 2012 at 2:21pmAmen! Voters for Obama are brain washed or either dumb as a stump. Colon Powell, who I once admired, is someone I just cannot figure out. A General with no common sense? Maybe he’s not the All American retired General we thought? I know one thing, if my uncles, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, were alive today, they would be stomping at the bit outside the Whitehouse to have Obama tried for Treason. They are probably turning over in their graves, as each fought for the USA and loved our country. They didn’t do this so some Kenyan could come in here and praise Allajah, destroy our God given rights, and the writings of our forefathers. Obama just as well be stomping on the ten commandments, and firing a weapon at God, as he’s certainly no Christian. I get so disgusted everytime I have to hear his voice or look at another one of his many ads.
This morning I was able to watch Ann Romney on Rachael Ray. The JA$$ had his ads on between every segment of the show. I was furious and I know his administration did this on purpose. Obama is the lowest of low lifes! God help us if he’s re-elected for four more years. We’ll be living on the streets (if they remain safe).

Posted on October 25, 2012 at 1:34pmWinning the White House is important. But, It’s just as important to take back the Senate. That means beating the commie Sherrod Brown in Ohio. His challenger Josh Mandel has pulled to within 3 points. Send Mandel a few bucks if ya can:

Posted on October 25, 2012 at 1:47pmWe are working on booting Tester here in Montana. He is trying to run as non-partisan and for Montana (a red state). But there are back to back ads running from a Physician’s PAC about his votes on Obamacare and the stimulus. He is losing ground and going negative, just like Obama.

Posted on October 25, 2012 at 1:33pmThe difference between these two men are stark:
Obama is a drug using, alcohol abusing, community organizer who has managed to climb the ladder of success not by his accomplishments but because he is black, grew up in a single parent home and was handed everything to him. No white kid in a similar situation would have ever received the free higher education and passes Obama got.
Romney is a good man. Despite having money in his family, he made his own way in life and has done many good things both in the private sector and in the public sector.
He is a self made man and cannot be bought like Obama can.

Posted on October 25, 2012 at 1:45pmYou know I’ve often thought if we didn’t have a “chosen people” Marxist Media oligarchy, we wouldn’t even have to worry about Democrats ever holding office. The Democrats have the press (presstitutes) as a propaganda arm of their party. If the media was actually unbiased, the Dems wouldn’t stand a chance. But since the entire American media is controlled by a small group “chosen people” oligarchy, we get bombarded wit pro-Democratic stories, anti-Republican stories non stop. You have most media ignoring to report stories making Obama look bad and just focus on stories that make Romney look bad…..like Libya.
The Founding Fathers never imagined our “free press” being taken over by an oligarchy of “chose people” in the late 1800s and then using that very media for propaganda purposes to the masses.

Posted on October 25, 2012 at 1:33pmFolks, it there was ever any doubt in your minds that we are at WAR within
our own country, you should no longer be confused —–
One thing good about the current polarized political climate is that if flushes
the enemy out into the open. No more wondering who is on what side.
This is yet another crystal clear indication:
U.N. Human Rights Council Calls for Boycott of U.S. Companies
U.N.’s war on Israel puts American economy in crosshairs
http://freebeacon.com/u-n-human-rights-council-calls-for-boycott-of-u-s-companies/
“The Washington Free Beacon has obtained a report soon to be released by the United Nations that calls for an international campaign of legal attacks and economic warfare on a group of American companies that do business in Israel, including Hewlett-Packard, Caterpillar Inc., and Motorola Solutions Inc.
The Human Rights Council (HRC), a body dominated by Islamic countries and known for its hostility to, and heavy focus on, the Jewish State, issued the report. The George W. Bush administration refused to participate in the HRC, but President Barack Obama joined it soon after taking office. Members of the HRC include infamous human rights abusers such as Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Jordan, Libya, China, and Cuba.”

OK who woke these people up? I see they are taking the whole Agenda 21 thing way too seriously. First the vote monitoring, next Romney bashing, and now threating American companies AND their employees that engage in legal international trade with Israel? What next, they are going to attack American Israeli Jews? Whoa, Skippy, you have just yanked the wrong chain, 1st OB is outta here, and you guys are nextβ¦β¦no more Manhattan shopping sprees at the Dollar Store and PayLess for you idiots. Kindly go home; we need the prime real estate for additional tax revenue. Weβre only going to ASK onceβ¦.

Posted on October 25, 2012 at 1:28pmI would think that cover represents Romney in a wonderfully positive way, at first glance. Makes you wonder about the possibilities.

Posted on October 25, 2012 at 1:36pmCouple of things to notice when looking at the 2 pics. 1. Notice how Romney is higher than Obama…may seem like a moot point but subconsciously it does have an effect. 2. Look at their facial expressions, Romney is smiling and looks happy but Obama has an irrated look on his face. That will have another subconscious effect. The only thing thing that makes Obama look good is that in his picture it shows more people.

You can’t tell the size of the crowds by these pictures. The picture with Romney is a tighter shot.

Posted on October 25, 2012 at 2:08pmYou should wonder at the possibilities when it comes to Romney since he’s changed positions on just about everything during the campaign.

Posted on October 25, 2012 at 5:57pm@simple: And Obama is just rock steady on what? Oh yeah, his support of islam, the muslim brotherhood, breaking the middle class and turning America into a third world country, like say Kenya. Go troll somewhere else.
