I think a more plausible explanation than hypnosis, is that the majority of Americans, 50-some-odd percent anyway, want more free stuff from the government.
I have to say you seem to be the most correct although I do wonder at some of the OZombies out there, they remind of of the crowd in the movie, "The Mummy" when Im-Ho-Tep mesmerized a crowd to chase after Brendan Frasier and Co. when they were trying to escape in a car. The crowd was chanting "Im-Ho-Tep" over and over again.
Still, I often joke that OBummer used a "hypnotoad" from "Futurama."
All Glory to the Hypnotoad!!!
I should amend my statement. When I said what I said, I did not mean to say that no percentage of Obama supporters were crazy/hypnotized/etc. Just that a larger portion of just plain old want free stuff.
