This from Autobloggreen:

Chrysler reports that its vehicle sales jumped by 12 percent in the third quarter over the same period in 2011. That step up was enough to bump profits by 80 percent to $381 million on $15.5 billion of net revenue. Moving forward, the automaker expects to see fourth-quarter profit of $210 million, which should help the company realize its forecast of $1.5 billion of net profit for the year. Reuters reports Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne expects the automaker's free cash flow for 2012 to be "well in excess" of $1 billion.

Over the same period, the smallest of the Big Three laid claim to an 11.3-percent slice of the domestic market, thanks largely to a 16-percent jump in US retail sales. More importantly, the manufacturer's net industrial debt now sits at $693 million, down from $2.2 billion one year ago.

Repeating the kool aid talking line is easy enough for any liberal to follow but when you ask for examples they turn green :lol:

Justme-you remind me of Romney; I have no idea of what you are saying half of the time.

1. Doesn't Romney's war talk and bellicose rants about how he will make other countries respect America scare you?

2. Romney thinks we should still be in Iraq and that we shouldn't leave Afghanistan yet. Can you give me a number of how many more American and coalition troops should die in this war that has gone on far too long?

3. Romney feels that we should possibly invade Iran (i'm not sure about this as he speaks in circles so often.)

4. Romney says that Russia is our greatest enemy. Really? Does he even have any idea of what it takes to be an enemy?

5. As Governor of Mass., Romney was pro-life. Now he is the darling of the anti-abortion religious right.

6. Romney (before Hurricane Sandy) wanted to get rid of FEMA. Now he has luke-warm praise for FEMA. Ask the people affected by natural disasters if they want to get rid of FEMA.

7. Romney wanted to let the auto industry go bankrupt. Read OP.

8. Bain Capital bought Delphi at fire sale prices, went to the government for money to buy Delphi on the premise of saving US jobs and then closed 24 of the 28 Delphi plants and shipped the jobs to China.

9. Romney has successfully pissed off several of our closest friends in his overseas trips. Europe is terrified of him. Is this the type of person that should be running our foreign policy?

10. Romney says that the day after he is elected he will lay out his plan for America. I doubt that you would buy a car if you had to pay for it first and then they would tell you what kind of car you just bought.

Justme, I am a Republican too but I am thoroughly disgusted with the candidates my party has run for office recently. In 2008, McCain had my vote until he picked Caribou Barbie as his running mate. Now, what should have been an easy win for the Republicans is going down the tubes because the GOP candidate is someone who is on all sides of every issue and has little, if any, character. Even my Congressman (Republican) who campaigned on opposing Obamcare and downsizing government raised hell when he found out his healthcare wouldn't become effective until he took the oath of office in January.

I still don't see any examples against Romney that would make Obama the better canidate. Still waiting on something truly having substance against Romney that would make me vote for the worse President in America's history over Romney.

By the way I'm not a Republican I'm an Independent, I vote for best person, not the party they belong to. If Romney fails as bad as Obama has I'll vote against him in 2016 but I don't know how anyone could cost as much damage to America in such a short a period of time as Obama has. Hell I'd vote for Pelosi over Obama.

The Presidential candidate has just learned that tomorrow afternoon he will be charged with violating the federal Ethics in Government law by improperly concealing his multi-million dollar windfall from the auto industry bail-out.

At a press conference in Toledo, Bob King, President of the United Automobile Workers, will announce that his union and Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) have filed a formal complaint with the US Office of Government Ethics in Washington stating that Gov. Romney improperly hid a profit of $15.3 million to $115.0 million in Ann Romney's so-called "blind" trust.

The union chief says, "The American people have a right to know about Gov. Romney’s potential conflicts of interest, such as the profits his family made from the auto rescue,” “It’s time for Gov. Romney to disclose or divest.”

In the third debate Romney, for whatever reason, still opposed the 60 billion dollar bailout. For a person who was a vulture capitalist at Bain, what he said was either completely ignorant or a lie.

Because there was no private financial institution(s) who could have come up with that kind of money. Why? Because the banks didn't even have any money.

Duh...

Like I said you guys can't up any examples of why Obama is a better canidate than Romney, you qoute kool aid insane talking points. Although we don't know how good of President Romney will be, we do know how bad a President Obama has been. Time for change, let's hope Obama is sent back to Chicago.

Vote for Romney then we'll head right back to the Bush era.
