9. When They Say Obama Can't Run On His Record

Our response should be to remind the speaker that the Republicans sat in one of their "quiet rooms" even as the rest of the country enjoyed the Inaugural Festivities and while we cheered, they plotted their strategy. They knew before Obama entered the Oval Office for Day One what they would do to try to cripple him and his administration. In spite of that, he has managed to get some things done, not the least of which was to get the Affordable Care Act passed and phased in.

I think that the fact that the Republican Congressmen and women planned to kneecap the President and everything he wanted to do should be hammered home to the American voters. They never intended to co-operate with him. When they say he can't run on his record, remind them of WHY he hasn't accomplished more. And then go over the facts of what he has accomplished. I would love to see bill boards everywhere with a list of all the things Americans now have THANKS IN NO SMALL PART to Mr. Obama's health care plan. There are STILL people out there who do not realize this plan is in place and is working! I saw a post on FB the other day from a young woman calling the Affordable Care Act "Moroncare" and she indicated that she thought it would be rolled out in January of next year. They are dumb and dumber and do not realize that the roll out of the ACA began in 2010. They honestly do not know that many of our uninsured are NOW insured. That women's health care just got a big boost on August 1st. And on and on. Lots of them do NOT know this and that needs to change so that at least they can make decisions based on truth, not lies put out by Romney and his crack team of liars and shills. When Romney BRAGS that he will do away with the Affordable Care Act, the real cost of that should be highlighted every time we get the chance.

Instead of blaming Obama for our slow recovery, the voters need to be reminded (over and over if need be) of who took their oar out of the water before we even pulled away from the dock!
