Romney's body language shouts, I am rich and you are not.

Romney looks too rich. His body language is too perfect. His language is too impersonal. He is too deliberate. He appeals to the brain not the heart. And books about the heart outsell books about the brain 1000 to 1. Just ask Danielle Steele. As a sidebar, she has sold more than 800 million books about the heart. 


Most people love to read about relationships of the heart. That is my point. The heart trumps the brain. Obama grabs the hearts of the many,while Romney grabs the brains of a few.


Even with a sport coat and denims, he does not seem to relate to most Americans. And why should he?  He makes more money in a single day than most Americans make in a year.  And he does not even have a real job.


A CNN poll shows the president holding a 20-point lead over Romney among those earning less than $50,000 per year. Guess what? Approximately, 50% of American households earn less than $50,000 per year.   It is doubtful that Romney earning $20 million per year, which is $54,000 per day,  can relate. 


Romney's recurring theme is he knows out to create jobs. And Obama does not.  Most Americans have a job so the audience for Romney's theme, albeit genuinely important, is small. Further, there are serious doubts by many Americans that either party has a formula for a better economy. Me too on that issue.


A sharp change in the economy is like trying to make a sharp turn with an aircraft carrier. You might be able to do it, but you better be strapped into your bunk.

Obama and the super Pacs.

Obama dissed the supreme court for failing to kill the super PACs power. Now, he is thanking them because Obama is an expert at climbing out of a hole.

Political Action Committees are organizations that people from anywhere can give millions of dollars to anonymously, as long as the PAC is not directed by the candidate that the PAC supports. I suspect it is just a coincidence that the PACs are always in perfect political sync with their candidate of choice. And after holding out for several months, Obama has joined the pack of the PACs. He blamed his decision on the republicans.

According to reports, he is encouraging his donors to give to his PACs, which are run by two former Obama assistants. His campaign manager has said that Obama will not be involved in how the PACs spend their money running negative ads against the republican candidates. Further, the democrats have only reluctantly agreed to take this dastardly and immoral route because the republicans have forced their hand with the republican PACs. Obama's campaign manager reportedly said, it would be unfair for Obama to allow the republican PACs to raise all the anonymous money even though Obama is staunchly against it. Hence, Obama is now for it.

Further, Obama's manager reported that although senior officials from the Obama administration will be attending these Obama PAC fund raisers, the officials will not ask for money. Wow what a relief. They will only attend. The republicans keep making Obama recast his principles in order to get reelected.

How can I make this stuff up? Impossible.
