The pundits will still not admit that one of Rmoney's biggest problems was that

he is a consummate liar. They embraced and made excuses for his falsehoods throughout the campaign. They accepted his refusal to release his tax returns and so much more. The baggage he had was as massive as his flip flops. The American people rebelled at the polls.

and decided that just one - the Jeep ad, was worthy of their scorn, despite the fact that the entire campaign manufactured lie after lie after lie from its inception.

eventhough, Obama won Ohio, which is what's important, they were not off or they DID NOT lie about that comment. I have to admit that I WAS surprised at how tight and close it was in Ohio. Remember, that was the reason why Mitt and company started to contest that count.

Issues, tax evasion, auto baillout, Jeep, Benghazi, working across the aisles as govenor, his "blind trusts" and don't forget the 47% who don't take care of their lives. How in the name of the USA could we allow him to represent us? We can't and we never will!

He is of course a liar, and a big one at that, but "all politicians lie", at least to some. I think a more accurate portrayal is that, as is plain to see,

The president is an honest, thoughtful, caring man, while Rmoney is a shallow, entitled, not-too-bright brat who cares only for himself and his money. In other words, Obama is a lot more presidential than Rmoney.

The Repukes have cobbled together a coalition of mostly brain dead single-issue voters (reproductive rights, gun lunacy, racism, and the rich), purchased complete control over the media, and have been able to ride that to a strangle-hold on the country. Something has to change systemically before we're out of the woods.
