Is Obama screwed for 2012?

The 2008 United States Presidential Election went like this:

Florida

Obama - 4,282,074 - 50.92% - 27 Electoral Votes.
McCain - 4,045,624 - 48.10% - 0 Electoral Votes.

A recent June 2010 Quinnipiac Poll sampling of 1,133 Floridians:

Obama Job Performance

Disapprove - 54% - 91% of GOP, 50% of Ind, and 14% of Dem.
Approve - 40% - 81% of Dem, 43% of Ind, and 6% of GOP.

President Barack Obama won Florida with a cushion of just 236,000 votes, or by a margin of 1.8 percentage points. And now a recent poll from a respectable polling firm has his numbers in one of the most important states at 40%. For someone who faces the voters again in 29 months; a 40% approval rating is a bad sign of worse things to come.

Imagine if these polling numbers reflect voters from across the Nation? Obama won the state of North Carolina by 14,000 votes; the state of Indiana by 29,000 votes; the state of Nevada by 120,000 votes; the state of Iowa by 140,000 voters; the state of Virginia by 230,00 votes; the state of Ohio by 260,000 votes; and he lost in Missouri by only 4,000 votes.

Losing 10% support in all of the above mentioned states would cause such a overturn of voters that it might not matter who Republicans select to be their Presidential nominee; just as long as a Republican is on the ballot. Period.

Memo to all perspective candidates for the Republican Nomination: All you need to do to win the 2012 Presidential Election is to flip about 1,056,000 votes in the seven above mentioned states, which in turn will result in 98 Electoral Votes going into our column, leaving us the victors in 2012.

How To Survive The Obamaclipse (Part 1 of 2)

Dear Friends,

YES THIS IS A REPOST BECAUSE THE TITLE WAS WRONG THE FIRST TIME AND I AM PICK. PLUS I KNOW I WILL GET MORE HITS NOW. DEAL WITH IT.

I have not been posting on jumpinginpools for a very long time as you may have noticed. I apologize, I was trying to figure out how much bigger Obama's head could get. (And does it deflate if you pull his ears?) I figure by the end of his presidency his head will be big enough to cause an eclipse of the sun, to which I am patenting the name Obamaclipse. To prepare for this unfortunate event, which at this point seems to irreversable, gather food, water and other necessary items that one needs to survive (and don't forget your conservative literature!) In order to survive the events following the Obamaclipse, which will cause global climate changes over a period of eons, find your way to the nearest accesible cave and make it liveable. Start now as this occurence is set to happen in just a few years in 2012The Mayans had it right, just not the right cause) All we can do is wait and see if his head will deflate from being rebuked by people whose heads are not full of air. If this does not happen, prepare for the Obamean Winter, which is caused by the Obamaclipse. Just follow these simple guidelines:

1. Do not, under any circumstance leave the cave unless life threating situations apply
2. Do not let in strangers saying, "We just want to take a quick poll"
3. Pack lots of conservative literature to pass down to future generations so we might actually build a new society on it.
4. Leave behind liberal friends. They are a bad influence on children and feeble minded adults.
5. Remember Obama is watching, so don't go outside, or risk being brainwashed as he loudly proclaims his new world order.
6. Teach future children how to debate against liberal propoganda so they are prepared just in case.
7. Follow the principles and doctrine of the three great conservative minds: O'Reilly, Hannity and Savage (Limbaugh is an idiot easily tricked with a donut. Look up "Rush Punked")
8. Remember if they start to hate, use them for Obama bait.
9. Try to make friends with jihaddis, as they will be your main weapons suppliers and allies against the great Obaminable Monster.
10. Use the buddy system. Obama only preys on weak people who are alone. Do it, do it naooow!

Interview: Gary Johnson for President

Jumping in Pools is proud to present number 43 in our interview series. This time we're interviewing Elwar from the Gary Johnson for President site. That site promotes the candidacy of former New Mexico Governor Gary Johnson for 2012. Visit the site and bookmark if you like it! Without further ado:

1. What would be Gary Johnson's strengths as President?

Gary Johnson is one of those guys who wants smaller government and is actually willing to put his foot down when Congress comes to him with a bulging budget. He vetoed 750 bills while governor of New Mexico. I've gone through and read some of his veto statements and a lot of them go along the lines of "How many times to I have to tell you No" when it comes to reckless spending. THAT's what we need in Washington right now. Someone to tell the out of control Congress "NO".

He's very business oriented. He started out as a one man construction business that grew to the biggest construction company in his state. He'll be able to fix what is currently being broken.

2. Would he have any significant weaknesses?

I believe once he's in office and he stops the flow of special interest money he'll begin getting attacked by anyone and everyone including the media. This will make him very unpopular and will put pressure on him to comprimise as politicians tend to do. But considering he was willing to take an unpopular and politically suicidal stance against the Drug War while governor, I'd venture to say that he'd stick to his principles, no matter how badly he is attacked.

3. How likely do you believe it is that Mr. Johnson will run for President?

I'd put the likelyhood at 99%. Although his PAC does not allow him to say that he's running thanks to our wonderful campaign laws, I (as someone not affiliated whatsoever with Gary Johnson or the Our America Initiative PAC) can say that he's probably going to run. Why else would he start a PAC, start taking donations, write a book, start making media appearances, plan stops in New Hampshire and Iowa if he wasn't planning on running for president? He's an avid athlete, I'm sure he'd prefer conquering a mountain instead of campaigning full time.

4. Why Johnson and not Sarah Palin?

I looked into Palin's record as governor early on when some people were saying she might be a good VP for Ron Paul if he were given the Republican nomination. She raised taxes and spent a lot of money in the short amount of time that she was governor in a conservative state like Alaska. Gary Johnson never raised taxes in the 8 years as governor in a state dominated 2 to 1 by Democrats.

I also can't see Palin winning the general election, especially with the animosity (deserved or not) that has grown around her. Any way you cut it, Republicans need to pick up California's 55 electoral votes, that went to Obama in 2008, to win in 2012. With a likely 2010 bill legalizing marijuana in California (as well as about 15 other states), Gary Johnson will be poised to take that state as the candidate who's been such a staunch supporter of marijuana legalization throughout his career, while Obama has been an opponent of California's state rights by continuing to allow DEA raids on legal marijuana businesses.

5. What is the best part about running your site?

I'm excited to watch the amount of visits at http://www.garyjohnson2012.com grow monthly and see how much support there is for a possible Gary Johnson run. Last month we had over 10,000 hits and we're not even close to 2012. I've been working on getting the site set up to become the Internet hub for grassroots activity; from the activist forum for exchanging updates and ideas, to allowing people to create their own activist webpages and blogs.

By 2012 the American people are going to be tired of our out of control government and Gary Johnson will be the only candidate with the proven track record and principles to wield his Veto pen like no other to stop the madness.

Of course, let me repeat, as it says on my website:

garyjohnson2012.com has no affiliation with Gary Johnson or any Gary Johnson campaign other than support for his possible run for president in 2012.

Return to glory : how the GOP can win yet again.

There are so many talking points to be discussed about how the Republican party can win the United States Congress in 2010 and the United States executive office in 2012, I have just one :

PRINCIPLES.

The Republican party needs to return to Conservative Founding Father principles, over the past few years they have become a party that accepts big government spending, compromises beliefs and principles in the name of "bipartisanship", and is becoming obsessed with targeting groups.

The Republican party must be ANTI-BIG GOVERNMENT!
The Republican party must be PRO-TAXCUTS!
The Republican party must be pro-PRINCIPLES!
The Republican party must be the party of values, and of Conservatism - one that values individual freedom to succeed, and does not look at one group or the other, but that our Conservative principles are color blind, and unlike liberalism is for every American. The principles of Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness!

We must also be pro-life, pro-traditional marriage (anti homosexual marriage), anti-global warming myth, pro-constitution, pro-second amendment. Among other staunch Conservative principles, which I and fellow Conservatives and Republicans so devotedly believe in.

God Bless!

Jindal in 2012

Well, I know that it's a bit far away, but I wanted to write a few preliminary thoughts on this idea. My first inclination for the nomination would be Giuliani, but I think that the base is not going to seriously consider another moderate.

So we look at Bobby Jindal. Why would his candidacy help the Republican Party?
Well,

*He has campaigned and governed on reducing corruption in perhaps the most corrupt state in the Union
*He is an Indian-American, showing that the Republicans are willing to support minority candidates.
*He is the son of immigrants, showing that the American Dream is alive and well.
*He is young, which can play against Obama's youth.
*He is a governor, showing executive experience.
*He is well experienced and has shown incredible tenacity.
*He is untainted from the 2008 election.

So Bobby Jindal may get my support in a couple of years.
