As someone who has been critical of Obama on internet freedom and civil liberties I know this.......

We must unite behind President Obama. Mitt Romney has gone off the deep end. America would NOT survive a Romney presidency as Romney is so weak minded that if he got in office he would make George W. Bush look like Franklin D. Roosevelt. Yes President Obama is NOT perfect there have indeed been disappointments and sell-outs (ACTA, TPP, NDAA). The internet itself can stop the censorship threats but, if Mitt Romney is elected you can say goodbye to America as we know it which means goodbye to Social Security, goodbye to Medicare, to Medicaid, to the progress on LGBT rights. You know what else we'd see under a Romney presidency? War with Iran and we cannot afford another war. We also know that Romney as president would be a reverse Robin Hood taking from the poor to give to the rich. So these are our choices.

A. Someone who has been pretty good on issues with the exception of internet freedom and civil liberties. (Barack Obama)

or

B. A corporate raider who would raid what is left of America for himself and his rich pals. (Mitt Romney)

If it's between those two I choose A. any day of the week.
