cutout who is the puke nominee--EVER engaging with citizens in this way? the president is clearly having a great time, isn't he?

(that title in the thread was from another DU'er a few days ago. hope I got it correct, it was a real pip)

that was not contrived. That was an American business owner embracing the President (literally).

He said that he's republican, but he also believes in voting for the best person for the job, which he feels is President Obama.

The man that owns the pizza place that hugged President Obama is a registered Republican and he is voting for Obama.

I have NOT heard of any Democrat say that they are voting for Mitt. No way!

Well now your splitting hairs. Typical liberals. (LOL)

I've been asking myself all day how Romney will spin this story. The Prez looks so cool and relaxed and the people LOVE HIM! You can't tell me this does not drive Romney and Ryan ape shit!

I thought I heard him say he voted for Obama in 2008 and since then his business has done very well under Obama's administration. My question is, if he voted Obama in 2008, obviously likes Obama and plans on voting for him in 2012. Why the hell is he STILL a Republican?
