President Barack Obama’s campaign trail led him to Milwaukee Saturday evening, where he rallied thousands of supporters.
People filled the BMO Harris Pavilion at the Summerfest grounds and cheered on Obama as he spoke about saving the middle class if elected to a second term.
Nice!
Well, then, it's a good thing that Hoffa doesn't watch Fox News, isn't it? What's your excuse for being low information and non-thinking - MSDNC, Current TV, RT TV, NBC, ABC, CBS, CNN, HLN, thinkprogress.com, the Daily Kos, moveon.org, etc???
"You carry a $1,000 with you at all times? Dang! That's almost enough for an unsubsidized trolley ride!"
In person his constantly looking at the teleprompters is kind of annoying. We cane up from Chicago because he is not bothering with us since Chicago will deliver the votes he needs to comfortably win down here. We went to Madison eight years ago to hear Gore when Springsteen warmed up the crowd with a couple numbers. That was my all-time favorite.
Re-elect Obama and we will see a depression!!
The Mormon not the Moron
Look again at the photo. There are quite a few empty chairs waiting to see the empty chair himself.
A lot of out-of-staters (confirmed by Dan F), underagers (confirmed by N. Peske), and the delusion (confirmed by richard schwalb believing that there were 14k-15k present when there were clearly open bleacher seats in a venue with a stated capacity of 5k) according to those commenting here that claim to have been there. Yep, Obama is in trouble all right! ROMNEY/RYAN 2012!!!
Nah--the silly TeaGOP will just double down on their obstructionism!!
Wisconsin Jobs Now @WiscJobsNow The world is upside down! Packers debacle has @ScottKWalker supporting referees’ union http://bit.ly/UQ7cMr
No, President Obama is not likely to win this election. Better get used to saying President Romney!!! And with control of both the House and and Senate, it will be just like the pre-recall and post-November-general election days here in Wisconsin under Governor Walker's magnificent leadership! Can't wait!!! ROMNEY/RYAN 2012!!!
Proof that you're a stooge!!!
If you're a shining example of a left-wing nutjob, it's not saying very much about the left-wing, considering that you apparently don't even realize that election day is November 6th! Or are you counting on Democrats following the old credo of voting early and often to steal the election before it even takes place? You're either ignorant of the truth or a cheater - must suck to be you!
You have fun on your date with Rachel Maddow and Hoffa will have fun on his date with SE Cupp!
We've been through this a thousand times already - there is an inherent conflict of interest with public sector unionization in that the public sector union employees are also taxpayers, thus they are in effect bargaining against their own self interests. Their compensation also derives from public funds which are collected from citizens by force. Not to mention that the public sector employees get to vote for the public officials that their unions are negotiating against, thus they effectively end up with representation on both sides of the bargaining table. This is why men such as FDR, the former President of the AFL-CIO, and my namesake didn't believe in public sector unionization. Walker isn't the hypocrite - public sector unionization is! In the private sector, typically the union and the owners/management tend to remain separate, with no conflict of interest. If a unionized employee chooses to also take an ownership interest in the company, it is done so voluntarily. And the revenues that corporations generate derive from money that is spent voluntarily, not by force (except in the case of health insurance companies thanks to Obamacare). And unless the union members are voluntarily buying an ownership in the company, and thereby getting to vote for members of the board of directors that their union is negotiating against, they typically don't get to vote for management. Hoffa hopes that you are able to see the differences here!
"Being pro-taxpayer doesn't make me anti-union. Besides, private sector unions are often our partners in economic development."
PrioritiesUSA Action @Priorities2012 Battleground voters convinced Mitt Romney would favor the rich at the expense of the middle class: http://bit.ly/QoDPQd #47percent
What in the hell is the matter with you? "Mitt is a loser." Is this appropriate? Your commander in chief and the leader of your Party asked you to dial down the hateful rhetoric, remember? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SMSVEyqMlg4 How can you vote for a leader that is so plainly deficient at leadership that even you refuse to listen to him?!?! Burned you again!!!
Gomer W Howard @GomerWHoward RT @misterlacy Romney has 3.6% chance of winning if the election were held today,according to @fivethirtyeight http://fivethirtyeight.blogs.nytimes.com/ #wiunion September 25, 2012, 12:26 pm205 Comments Sept. 24: Deep Red Polling Mystery By NATE SILVER The FiveThirtyEight forecast was essentially unchanged on Monday, with Barack Obama holding a 77.7 percent chance of winning the Electoral College. Mr. Obama received a number of strong-looking state polls on Monday, including some from firms that had him with mixed numbers before. Probably the most noteworthy of these was a Wisconsin poll from the firm We Ask America, which put Mr. Obama ahead of Mitt Romney by 11.5 percentage points there....... ................

Did they vote for the Job Bills? Did they vote for Jobs for returning Veterans? Did they vote to end Medicare and Social Security? Did their refusal to vote cause our credit rating to go down? Did they vote to close Health Clinics for women? Did they vote to get rid of Unions? Did they vote to even end minimum wage? Did they vote to give the rich even another tax cut? Did they vote to DE- regulate banking rules? Are they attempting to prevent some American citizens for voting at all? And did they want the car companies to go down the tube? I hope Paul Ryan loses his Congressional Seat, as well. He will be pushing privatilizing Social Security and getting rid of Medicare forever.
