She was pretty down about Obama's chances a couple of week ago (I posted about it on DU). But she had to admit, this man is President. He's a leader. Romney is a snake-oil salesman. Obama's leadership during this crisis (we're in Connecticut, we know how bad it is!) has lifted her spirits again.

Could you see Romney holding someone close, someone who probably hasn't had a shower or bath for a couple of days, someone who has lost a huge chunk of their life...
