LZ Granderson - you're blind to the world.

LZ - you couldn't be more preoccupied in your opinion on Mitt Romney. If for one moment you removed your "Republicans can only do wrong" blinders for just a few moments, maybe you'd realize that the United States needs realism; not adolescent naivety in regards to our future. You push the opinion that "people don't like Romney", that is simply not true and remember, the Presidency of the United States should not be a cool-kid contest. We tried that in 2008 and it gave us untold debt, horrible future for healthcare, another War and a litany of covert-military action throughout the world while all the while the President was proclaiming a posture of forgiveness for all the American wrongs.

You seem to be on point on anything - not political. However every time you dabble into the realm of politic you get stuck in a Liberalistic Demagogue of non-sense. You attempted to analyze class-warfare via Romney, while avoiding at all costs the fact that for decades the Democrats have relied whole-heartedly on class warfare as their pulpit. You mention that he only views a world of honor students and bus drivers, well, maybe you should realize that not everyone wants to go to college and that a degree does not somehow make you more important that the guy who came to fix your plumbing. If you were so smart, why didn't you fix it yourself? The example holds.

Romney didn't denigrate the 'bus driver' however, Democrats and your beloved Obama routinely do, with comments such as "well, those were minimum wage jobs the Republicans created" if somehow minimum wage was an atrocity. Aren't we arrogant!

Why should Romney apologize for being born into a hard working and wealthy family? Why should he get any less from America than a person who was born on a city street to nothing? America is EQUAL opportunity, not EQUAL success. It is not his fault, nor does he owe anyone any explanation of his fortune and success. It seems as if jealousy abounds the Liberal mindset, as if in some way a Utopia would be reached if "we all were rich". Again, we tried the 'poor' Popular leader, and that experiment failed horribly.

I would ask simply this, when did like-ability take precedent over effectiveness? Apparently this works in some confused state, where being liked equates to success. Anyone who has run a business or worked hard in their life knows that being liked does not equal success; and as Obama has show, being 'liked' offers nothing. Presidents should look to history to be liked, not pushing policy to receive high ratings. America has turned its course into the perception that favorability equals productivity and in American politics, as in schools or parenting, being the 'nice' guy everyone likes does not dictate any level of success. http://www.cnn.com/2012/08/14/opinion/granderson-romney-likeability/index.html?hpt=hp_t2

Fox News or CNN?

Ah, Fox and CNN. Where to start. Each one has its own bias. I was, for a very very long time an avid CNN viewer, literally the TV would be on CNN when I got home from work and stay there. Until the 2008 elections. I could not believe how much CNN backed the Democratic party. Almost to a point of annoyance. For every on RNC member on a panel there would be 2 DNC, usually one black man and one woman. The RNC person was almost always a white male. What I couldn't believe was the entire lack of respect for the opposing candidates on the Republican side. Now before you go "damn right-wing Republican" understand these FACTS: - Member of the Democratic Party - Libertarian - NRA Life Member What does that equal? Me. Not a single word up there said Republican. In fact, I've never voted for a presidential republican candidate. Maybe my lack of line loyalty allows me to have an open mind where others seen inherently sheltered. I have very strict guidelines for leaders; 1) be hon...
