I think I get it. A "concerned troll" would be a person who frames a statement as a "concern" but in reality is in opposition to policies put forth by the democrats. A Romney/republican supporter in disguise. Well, you never have to worry about me. I'm an Obama supporter (2008 and now). In fact, my "republican" husband is a strong Obama supporter, (2008 and now.) Have I passed the "loyalty test"? Just kidding.......
