"If this was a road race, Obama lapped Romney multiple times."
This metaphor makes no sense. Road races tend to be Point A to Point B affairs, rather than multiple laps around one track. Way to mix a single subject metaphor...
Wanna watch a debate that isn't a contrived, controlled platform for the mega-banks and the military industrial complex? Tonight, watch the debate between Libertarian Gary Johnson, Jill Stein of the Green Party, Virgil Goode of the Constitution Party, and Rocky Anderson of the Justice Party. The debate starts at 6:00 pm PDT. http://freeandequal.org
I'm confused by this article's implication that Romney has been revealed to be, as it says, "a changeling", and that his supporters will drop him now that they've found out.
Because, honestly, it's been obvious for months. Romney has made an entire campaign out of saying whatever he thinks it is he's supposed to say, regardless of whether it contradicts what he said the day before. The only time he's being genuine are the times when he makes an ass of himself - and even some of those are probably just misjudged attempts at pretending to have a actual position. And despite this, he still has supporters. Millions of 'em, in fact.
The only thing that can explain this is identity politics. I mean, Obama is no peach; hell, I think he should be IMpeached. (I'm voting for Jill Stein.) But it's not possible for millions of people who successfully learned how don pants to believe that Romney is actually a good choice for President on his merits - because he doesn't have any. Millions of people voting for him because they want to see the other team lose, and inventing merits for him as a rationalization? Now THAT'S plausible.

Don't throw your vote away, vote third party.
