.Obama pleads to voters: 'Don't give in to fear' Gov't does not = hope......

[OrangeEmpire]

Obama has settled on his message for the pivotal midterm elections, which means what he said Monday in Milwaukee will sound like what he says Tuesday in Seattle and Wednesday in Miami. He is covering more than 8,000 freewheeling miles in three days, the kind of personal attention that gets donors to the door.
This week offers not just a window for Obama to campaign — Congress is gone, his summer vacation awaits — but also a window into his thinking about the fall campaign. Despite deep voter impatience over the sickly economy, the White House is betting people will stick with Democrats if the choice is framed as one between those who act and those who obstruct.
On Monday, he warned of reliving a dreadful past, saying Republicans want voters "to be afraid of the future."
"The worst thing we could do is to go back to the very same policies that created this mess in the first place," Obama said at a fundraiser in Wisconsin. "In November, you're going to have that choice."

Obama is an intellectually dishonest coward.

He has already gone back to the policies that created this mess and then doubled down. Spending isn't the solution... IT IS THE PROBLEM. Too little taxation isn't the problem... SPENDING MORE THAN THE COUNTRY CAN AFFORD AND REMAIN ECONOMICALLY HEALTHY IS THE PROBLEM. Too few transfers of wealth are NOT the problem.... the problem is that too many are trying to consume without contributing an equal or great amount to the nation's wealth.

that's wrong. the government is taking billions from the private sector. the private sector can't hire people with the tax burden and regulations they have to endure. we are spending more than we're earning.

Don't be afraid of the future; be afraid of the past - and of the future if you elect Republicans.

Typical double speak from Obama - don't give into fear unless it's the fear I'm peddling.

Oh the irony.... "fear the fear tactics". Obama is trying his best to sell his accomplishments but it is those 'accomplishments' that are causing his support to dwindle. So when that fails, scare the people into fearing every ill of the past. As a conservative I never bought into his rhetoric. But as a polisci student, I had higher hopes of him being a much better politician than this. This is complete and utter implosion. Roger Simon's Politico article says quite a bit on this today.
