Yeah, both Obama and Romney were funny.  Nice break in the action.

Ohio down to -150. LOL. I like this one. Mitt Romney states won over 26½ (-155). Mitt has 25 in the bag. I have no doubt that he will win 2 of these states: CO, IA, NH, NV, OH, VA, WI. He's up 1 in CO, up 1 in IA, up 1 in NH, down just 3 in NV, down just 1 in OH, up 3 in VA and down just 2 in WI.

Up to -180 now. I'd play it up to -200. CO has officially flipped. Mitt will win CO and VA. There's your 27. 29 wouldn't be a shocker.

Lines are currently down at 5d but yesterday they had lines on individual swing states. As long as they haven't drastically changed, I would recommend you parlay Romney to win Florida and North Carolina. Not only have pollsters started to pull out of those states, Obama JUST pulled his ads in those 2 states. It's over.

Obama Super PAC Adviser: Obama Has Given Up On North Carolina

6:24 PM, Oct 22, 2012 • By DANIEL HALPER
Single PagePrintLarger TextSmaller TextAlerts

Paul Begala, an adviser to the pro-Obama super PAC, says that the Obama campaign has given up on North Carolina:

"Yes," Begala says when asked by Wolf Blitzer whether Obama's "given up on North Carolina."

Begala continues: "I'm not supposed to say that, Wolf, but I work for, as you mentioned, the pro-Obama super PAC, so I'm being paid to help reelect the president, but if you look at where he's going and where he's spending money--yes, it looks like Governor Romney is likely to carry North Carolina."

Can someone Honestly answer a question for Me. How does Romney feel about ending this War or does He want to continue send our Men and Woman over there to Iraq and Afganistan. This will probably help Me make up My mind as Who gets My vote. BTW I want our asses out of there for good. We have had way to many casualties, and it just keeps going on and on.

We don't want to lose all of our gains. Both Romney and Obama agreed on a SoFA which Biden was supposed to negotiate. He never did so we don't have one. That's on the WH. Only difference is Obama wanted 5k and Romney wanted 10k(I believe that's correct.)

The wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have cost over 1 trilion dollars so far, and over 6,500 troops have made the ultimate sacrifice. Mitt Romney would have left 30,000 troops in Iraq. He called bringing them home “tragic”. Romney wants to leave our troops in Afghanistan and called Obama’s bringing 30,000 soldiers home Obama’s “biggest mistake.”

Obama for America’s new TV ad about our wars is called “Rebuilding”:

Voiceover:

“A decade of war that cost us dearly and now for president a clear choice. President Obama ended the Iraq war. Mitt Romney would have left 30,000 troops in Iraq and called bringing them home tragic. Obama’s brought 30,000 soldiers back from Afghanistan and has a responsible plan to end the war. Romney calls it Obama’s ‘biggest mistake’. It’s time to stop fighting over there and start rebuilding here.”

Mitt Romney has made some utterly clueless comments about the wars. Romney: “We’re, of course, very happy to see our troops come out. But I think you’re
going to see another lesson learned. I think we’re going to find that this president by not putting in place a status in forces agreement with the Iraqi leadership has pulled our troops out in a precipitous way and we should have left 10,000, 20,000, 30,000 personnel there to help transition to the Iraqis’ own military capabilities. I’m very concerned in this setting. I hope it works out. But I’m concerned. [Fox News Sunday, 12/18/11]

RG: That is what Romney said concerning Iraq. He agrees with Obama's plan to withdraw all troops from Afghanistan by the end of 2014, but with caveats.

Thank you for posting an Obama ad as an answer. That's credible.
