Therefore, God is personally intervening to defeat Mitt and re-elect Obama.
If that's the excuse the baggers and the fundies want to use, we can easily throw it back in their face.

This one will go down with "Clinton only won because of Perot," "Obama wasn't vetted," "He's a Kenyan" and every other dumb bullshit excuse they cook up to try to act as though conservatism didn't really lose the election, and so they can continue to pretend the Democratic President of the United States isn't really in power.
