26. Are they finally realizing that Obama will win?

Sun Nov 4, 2012, 09:12 AM

Nov 2012

I am relieved to hear that, at least, some of these lunatics are realizing that Romney will lose on Election Day.

It's scary how Rove and other right wing personalities have bamboozled the right into believing that Romney will win.

It's like they're purposely being propagandized, so they'll be completely shocked at Obama's re-election. I "get" trying to keep the base enthusiastic, but they are perpetuating lies and fantasies at this point and doing them no favors.

I worry that they'll be so shocked on election night that they will be violent.

It's very sad that these people can no longer think for themselves; and it's equally sad that they're being played and harmed by people who will use them to fulfill their own agendas.
