My dyed in the wool democrat cousin woke up this morning [View all]

to a facebook page filled with messages from Mitt Romney because she "liked" him,except she didn't. If fact she wasn't even on Facebook when she supposedly "liked" him. She's furious and wants to know how that happened.Anybody have any idea how that could have happened?
