Does the right also realize that the romney's Chameleon behavior backtracked on at least 50% of

their bullshit.

In a way it is quite humorous

They sit there like monkeys as their boy says things that are the opposite of what they say they believe in, and like good monkeys, they cheer

It reminds of the Monty Python skit, I'm a lumber jack and I'm OK

They assume the bullshit they don't want to hear is a lie to get elected and the bullshit they want to hear will magically turn into legislation the minute their candidate hits the white house. The fact conservatives never do any positive legislation that helps them and spends their time grifting for/from the 1 % never occurs to them. If it did they would stop voting for such clear liars.

"If only we nominated a true conservative, we would win." Mitt knows their shit won't sell so he junked it. And they cheer away...

10. The right doesn't give one molecule of a shit

They wallow in hypocrisy and I increasingly believe hyper partisans in both major parties care little about policy other than kneejerk on social issues.

The rest is opposition taking advantage of who is holding the hot potato at a given time.
TeaPubliKlans only grant any degree of relevance to deficits when they are not responsible for them and Democrats only are against wars or violations of civil liberties when they are not in charge of them.

The right wants their guy in, they don't much give a shit what is done as history demonstrates. All the shit they howl about goes out the window as soon as one of theirs is in the slot.
