trying to show he's not a racist.

As far as S. America goes, I think he was first funded by some drug cartel from S. America.

Time zones and tree heights bring him joy. Plus, polls showing him down in Ohio consistently by 5, are "ties" in his mind.

he said something like, Manufacturing is coming back in America and my administration is going to continue to make them succeed.

He just admitted that the economy is coming back and guess who did that? President Obama.

Would that be the SAME jobs you outsourced over there? Guess if you can give 'em away, you can bring them back, huh, Gov?

What a maroon, to quote a certain Bunny Wabbit, I love.

He is mainly phoning it in. His speech today has no passion, just ticking off his talking points from his stump speech. He has a certain dead look in his eyes and is now just going through the motions because he has to. He knows it's over for him but he has to keep on keepin' on. Hate it for him.

When he made the time zone comment, I wondered what in the hell he was talking about. Like we don't have international communications that can go on 24/7, no matter where in the world we have business relations.
