Tell me about it!!!!!
WTF is this talk about 'Liberal Washington' from Romney? Congress was held by the GOP for over a decade up until 2 years ago, the White House for 8 years. Hell, Mitt was arguably liberal himself when he was the governor of Massachusetts (by his current standards, which conveniently shifted hard to the right when he left to run for prez).
The astonishing thing about the Republican rank & file is that they are SO EASY TO LIE TO. They never fact-check. They think 'personality' is more important than policy. Their attention span is that of a gnat. And worst of all, you can divert their attention away from real issues and even their own economic self-interest by invoking an enemy, whether that be 'liber-uls' or terrorists.
It's easy to be the masters of spin when your audience is a mob of idiots.
