1. Or, in the case of the media, intentionally unwilling to catch him.

We can do all the work for them and it ain't gonna mean squat if no one sees it.

The major networks have their horse race thanks to that sham of a debate, and they're running with it.

2. PR is GOP SOP since Pruneface's time.

Mark Hertsgaard wrote about it in "On Bended Knee-The Press and the Reagan Presidency." The media pros discovered it didn't matter how awful the news, as long as Reagan was smiling and the background was filled with happy kids and balloons, the viewers thought the world of the Gippet -- thanks to PR.

3. This is right!!!!

Unless people do soemthing about his pathological lying, it won't matter that he does lie. Time and time again, he has contradicted himself almost in the same paragraph. He says only what people want to hear not what he believes. If he did, he would be way down in the polls and no money would be flowing into his campaign.

4. I just wish I had the nerve to post this on Facebook.

I see so much ignorance there.

But, alas, I live in a very right wing small town and my profession relies on customers of all political leanings.

5. Mitt Romney tells 533 lies in 30 weeks, Steve Benen documents them

This is documented. Proven. Validated, verified, demonstrated, catalogued and quantified. Mitt Romney lies.

Here are 30 — 30! — of Benen’s weekly “chronicling” posts.

These are all backed up and sourced. These are not assertions, interpretations or allegations. These are facts, actual instances.
Over the past 30 weeks, Mitt Romney has told lie after lie after lie:

I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX, X, XI, XII, XIII, XIV, XV, XVI, XVII, XVIII, XIX, XX, XXI, XXII, XXIII, XXIV, XXV, XXVI, XXVII, XXVIII, XXIX, XXX.

8. Evidently, it doesn't matter to the majority of Americans.

The majority being those who are going to vote repub AND those who are not going to vote.

I'm not sure which group I have more disdain for.

9. Yeah, that's the ticket.

Just ask his wife, Morgan Fairchild.
