35. Beautifully written!! Not letting the Roves marginalize us, our vote was NOT a fad.

I am more pleased with the President every single day. My favorite President so far. He clearly walks his talk, and is working for us every single day. Working for everyone. I will be MORE proud and happy to vote for him again this year.

The insidious new campaign plan by Romney/Rove is to treat us like 10 year olds whose parents let us eat all the ice cream we want, so we would get a stomachache, and learn a lesson.
