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).

Obama Rival Mitt Romney Trounced Newt Gingrich In The Primaries But He Won’t Quit

Gingrich Also Took Votes From Rick Santorum

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.
