It's from a while back, but it's what I've said so many times I'm ready to outsource: Mitt Romney is running against, and the RWS™ and Fox "news" are enabling the creation of, a completely fictional Barack Obama. The reason is obvious: the real Barack Obama -- notwithstanding the economy struggling as Rs stomp on it and blame the results on him -- is still a formidable opponent, and the real Mitt Romney is a lying, flip-flopping man of many-tongued mendacity. So they create a false Obama and hide the real Romney. Brilliant. In a screw-the-country-all-we-care-about-is-our-money kind of way.
