Apparently things have sometimes gone a bit wrong with Facebook, and people have been listed as 'Liking' Romney who do no such thing. An American Facebook friend of mine (staunch Dem, though I know her from a non-political context) mentioned that she had a couple of Democratic-voting friends who were mysteriously listed as 'liking' Romney.

If people have actually posted anti-Obama stuff, that is of course different!
