I could not believe he “won” the 2012 election. Well, he did, but unfairly, and only because he had his minions clamp down on activists who turned the 2010 election against him. I have no confidence in anything done by federal officials anymore, and unfortunately, you are right about the free stuff— the welfare queens — and believe me, they are not all African-American — are so glued to the Jody Arias trial they have not a clue about what else is going on.
Lois Lerner was at the heart of the corruption of TWO presidential elections. She was in charge of enforcement of election laws, especially campaign finance, in the first Obama election. In that one, he took in millions of $ from illegal overseas contributions. Lerner just looked the other way. In the second, most recent election, she made sure the opposition could not function for lack of funds and support by harrasing them with the apparatus of the IRS. Congress needs to dig a lot deeper into her activities than just who told who at the IRS.
I could, for a very simple reason: Mitt Romney.

While I'm sure that there was /is corruption, I have to wonder if it's so widespread as to be the cause of Obama's reelection. The GOP-elite selected and pushed Romney, someone who politically is pretty much Obama's clone... furthermore, they pushed him with dirty, dirty tricks/tactics: the retroactive rules changing in the primaries (robbing Ron Paul of delegates), the announcing/reading of the RNC votes before the voting was finished, the bus incident at the RNC, and more. Honestly step back and ask this: why should I vote for democrat-lite when I can get the real thing? (i.e. the "vote for the lesser of two evils" is simply an excuse to vote for evil.)

Neither do I, but the reason isn't "the deomcrats cheat" -- the reason is that governments are not interested in fair-play, at any level, and will exceed any and all constraints that they can get away with violating. (I've written about gun-laws on the State-level where the Constitutions explicitly forbid laws... and how these 'laws' are more or less unassailable even though they be illegitimate.)
