No personal attack here. On a psychological level, the 2008 Obama campaign was brilliant. Hope and Change presented as a Rhorshach for your projection. It worked. Since the terms were used iconically and purposefully made to be ambiguous, people projected their own idea of hope and change into Obama. This time, the path is somewhat more challenging, but not impossible. Like a good magician, he must direct his audience’s attention through misdirection. Obama is a player. The main difference I see between Obama and Romney is that the former wants to destroy our nation and the latter seeks to preserve and defend it. I am convinced that Romney has a more developed sense of integrity and I have greater clarity on what he stands for. I have noticed that many of the people I talk to on a daily basis are too lazy to inform themselves. The biggest danger is that clueless may have become a majority.

Amen to that - sadly, the one you aimed it at is so entrenched int the "there's no difference" meme that he and those who continue like him refuse to see. It's like arguing with a left-wing liberal who mindlessly pursues a train of "thought" because it was the original and "logical" train and doing any actual thinking (or admitting one is a moron) is just so ........ dang ........ hard....

We're not just fighting the Left anymore - those who claim to spit on RINOs, then act in ways to reinstall Zero, are even more dangerous to our future than the actual RINOs.
