Obama In Trouble With Fellow Democrats As Inmate Scores Almost As Many Votes As He Does

Barack Obama: oh snap!

The next story is a real dozy and one that should alarm President Barack Obama. According to ABC News, in the southern state of West Virginia, "More than 40 percent of Democrats voting chose to cast their ballot for Keith Russell Judd, an inmate at the Beaumont Federal Correctional Institution in Beaumont, Texas, where he’s doing time for extortion and threats made at the University of New Mexico in 1999."

The article goes on to state, "Judd scored 42.28 percent of the vote — or 49,490 votes — compared with President Obama with 57.72 percent, or 67,562, according to unofficial state results."

What did Judd do to get on the ballot, you ask? According to the Associated Press, he paid the "$2,500 fee" and filed "a form known as a notarized certification of announcement."

You just can't make stuff like this up. However, President Obama is probably wishing you could, because it reveals his popularity has plummeted to the point that even an inmate and one with a mullet might I add, received that many votes against him in a primary.  

Keith Russell Judd

What will this mean for Obama in the November presidential elections. Is the predicted landslide loss on the way (rhetorical). What happens when Obama has to run against the presumed Republican nominee for president, Mitt Romney, who is the former Governor of Massachusetts and a wealthy businessman, with um, no criminal record.

Obama should have reduced the deficit and raised taxes on the rich, this would have created surpluses and more money to create jobs and pay for education, among other things. Then he wouldn't be in this predicament now, with six months to go until the next election and a bad economy to show for it. The Judiciary Report kept harping on these things for a reason from the moment Obama took office. The continued deteriorated state of the economy proves why.

Side Bar: I would cry if someone with a mullet, mohawk or frohawk (afro mohawk) nearly beat me in a political race. Life just wouldn't seem fair (LOL).

Mitt Romney: he's such a sore loser!

Fresh off his victories in key election states, the former Governor of Massachusetts, Mitt Romney, scored significant wins over former frontrunner, Newt Gingrich. Every primary he took put Gingrich further behind, yet he refuses to leave the race, following Rick Santorum's cue. The more momentum Romney gains via wins in U.S. states, represents the greater number of voters he can sway to propel him through to the nomination of the Republican party for the November 2012 election, against President Barack Obama.

Newt Gingrich is playing a game

After Romney victories were announced, Gingrich even gave press conferences, where some expected him to gracefully withdraw from the race, but it was not to be. Gingrich is still plotting a path, but with each new state race, it becomes more apparent victory is not in store. By remaining in the race, he split the vote, forcing Santorum out of the race and prolonging the electoral process.

Obama: I know it's Romney

In the mean time, President Obama isn't focusing on anyone in the race other than Romney, which should be an indication to Gingrich that his ship has sailed in regard to the nomination. However, he remains in the race for reasons known to him and others in political circles. Either way you look at it, Romney is currently the frontrunner in the race, with major polls proclaiming he will be the next president.

Newt Gingrich

Newt Gingrich, the former Speaker of the House, who left in disgrace, should leave the republican race for the the nomination to run against President Obama in the upcoming election. Gingrich is splitting the vote and prolonging the process, with his presence in a race that is not going his way in any measure.

Some members of the public and political pundits believe, Gingrich is remaining in the race for dubious reasons. Currently, the delegate count stands at Mitt Romney, 563, Rick Santorum, 263, Newt Gingrich 135 and Ron Paul, 50. A candidate needs 1144 to win the nomination. Romney is the clear favorite, but Santorum would have a lot more votes than he currently does if Gingrich were not in the race.

Rick Santorum

America has decided and Mitt Romney won the Nevada primary this past Saturday, while Rick Santorum took Missouri caucus yesterday in the Republican vote to determine the party's candidate to vie for the U.S. Presidency. As such, former frontrunner, Newt Gingrich, has lost two more states, which does not bode well for his campaign, unless there is a turnaround.

Mitt Romney

Of all the candidates running in the election on both political sides, Gingrich has the most extensive ties to corruption and harmful political dealings that hurt the American people and continue to do so to this day. To elect Gingrich, would be a step back for America. Many have come forward warning against the secretive Gingrich and it is with good reason.

Questions raised about Mitt Romney’s vote count in Iowa

Saturday, January 7, 2012 - One of the charms of the Iowa caucus is the event’s intimate, homespun feel. But the downside of what amounts to an amateur production surfaced with reports calling into question Mitt Romney’s astonishingly thin eight-vote victory.

Edward True, a poll watcher for Ron Paul, filed an affidavit Thursday saying that Romney’s reported total overstated his support by 20 votes in Appanoose County, on the Missouri border. If true, and there were no further adjustments, Santorum would be the Iowa winner by 12 votes.
