VANITY: My Mom, age 70, continues to idolize Obama...

... even after his DISASTROUS performance during the debate.

She's Italian (came to this country at age 14 in 1956), and I just have a feeling that she misses Mussolini in some way and sees POTUS as a somewhat Mussolini-like figure. She's been all about "social justice" in recent years.

She's been retired for over 10 years and receives an average pension. She's by no means "rich". Very middle class, and dare I say perhaps even lower middle class...

In 2008, she supported Hillary until the very end, and eventually settled with Obama when he got the nomination. She LOVES him and his wife and the entire Obama family.

I cannot comprehend this.

Ask her to define social justice.

My elderly father, who loves being a contrarian, told me he is voting for Obama. So I told him to make other plans on Election Day, because I won’t drive him to the polling location. My mom won’t, either.

Barry does resemble Mussolini in some ways when he sticks his nose up in the air.

it’s exactly what Romney said about 47%.

She’s on a pension, and she wrongly thinks she’s safer with a Big Goverment guy.

When the pension and the US are bankrupt, then what?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Your Mom probably thinks she is too young to worry about Obama’s Death Panels. But no matter, she needs to study up on this. And so much more.

Yep, that also describes my 86 year-old mom.

Strong dutch lady who is a lifelong democrat who lives life as a conservative. Born-again Christian. Strongly pro-life. Sends me e-mails that belittle Obama, but refuses to vote for ANY Republicans.

Oh, and has the TV tuned to NBC/ABC/CBS all day long...

I have family that won’t vote as they don’t like Romney. If it weren’t for the fact someone may have to take care of me when I’m old and gray, I’d never send them another gift.

Pour a tall glass of cold water. Take a small sip and then throw the rest in her face. It’s called tough love.

By age 70 she’s earned the right to vote for whoever she wants to though i will concede the overt state-run propaganda is intense for seniors now.

You can't "unfriend" her but that's what I did to an Obama supporter friend of 43 years. I just decided I didn't want friends who are that stupid!

Good riddance!
