What Rmoney and the right really stand for. Why they'll lose in November

Conservatism in this country has changed big time in the past decade. There are no more conservative values. Because of this I feel that Rmoney does not have a chance in hell of winning. Listed below are observances that I have seen, specifically in the this election and Rmoney.

1). No one knows what Rmoney really stands for. Most people think he stands for "nothing". He certainly does not represent the middle class.
2). Rmoney has flip flopped on more things than anyone I've ever seen in the past.
3). The lies that have been disclosed from the right are far too many and despicable. Many politicians in the past have distorted the truth, but out and out lies are a different thing.
4). Vote for me and I'll give you my plans after the election? WTF. Who would vote for that?
5). The hatred and racism coming from the right is again despicable. And the right can't figure why they have 0 percent of the black vote? They right has a venomous attitude towards Obama.
6). 1 legitimate year of taxes? Come on, he vetted candidates for the VP slot and requested 10 years of taxes from them.
7), Taxes. Most middle class jobs will lose 2K in taxes. Yet Rmoney supports a trickle down effect for millionaires? More tax breaks for them? And it's been proven not to work, over and over.
8). Medicare voucher system? Removing medicaid completely? Are you kidding me?
9). Removing Obamacare? This country needs National Health care in one form or another. Is it perfect? Probably not, but we have to start somewhere. To simply destroy it is ludicrous
10). To say our number one priority on day 1 is to not let Obama get a second term is proof that the right does not represent bi partisanship and the values of this country. They have shut down everything he proposed. For things to work, both sides have to give and take. Nothing gets accomplished with a 1 sided view.
11). I'm sure I left out some other items, but the ones above should be enough to get Obama elected in November.

I predict a landslide in November, with a surprise in states that use to vote republican.

4 more years, 4 more years.

But I worry about voter suppression, vote flipping on the voting machines owned by Koch Bros companies and the Fox brainwashed masses and the racists who will hold their nose and vote for rmoney because they hate the black man in the white house.
