Unfortunately that DOES describe millions of our fellow Merikuns - HOWEVER, I also am seeing evidence that a lot of people didn't buy Their Shit, either! Look at how many gazillions were spent this time on attack ads in battleground states, many of which will STILL go to OBama. I love it. We need to dump that insanely stupid 'Citizens United' thing (which is one of the most mis-named things EVER).
