Aww - "Romney’s Virigina Supporters Hope For Victory, But Fear Obama May Pull Through"

Cry me a river.

"Sandra Thornton, a retired school secretary, said she felt “very positive” about Romney and thought he had more energy on his side compared to Obama, who she believed had faded in stature since 2008. But the jury was still out on whether it was enough to win.

“This is really the first election I’ve felt absolutely terrified,” Thornton said. “Fox is trying desperately to make it out to be a Romney landslide, but I’m nervous.”

The biggest hurdle Thornton feared was Obama’s continued likability. “He has the charisma,” she said. “But he’s a liar.”

This was a popular concern. Kurt Johnson, 62, a who works in the chemical business in the Richmond area, said he was “enthusiastic” about the election but worried too many people see Obama as “hip, cool, and sympathetic."

Their BIGGEST problem is watching Fox and thinking it's fucking NEWS. It's not news.. it's not even factual. They should be off the air, and in an earlier time, they would have been. Now you can lie and call names and mislead and brainwash, and places like HOme Depot give you millions of dollars to do it.

That's why people seem so damn stupid in America now. MANY people.. millions.. DO believe that Fox is NEWs.
