Facebook Experiment

[johnlal]

Usually, when I say something about the President on Facebook, my righty friends come out of the woodwork to poop on my post, by saying nasty things about the Pres. I never see anything good posted about Romney. So I decided to conduct an experiment. I posted a simple question to my facebook status:

To my GOP friends: What do you like the most about Mitt Romney?

I followed up with the comment:

(And you can't say "He's not Obama".)

I got one relative who said "He's not Obama" anyway. But hours went by, and not one good thing was said about the man. Perhaps others can try this little experiment. Ask the simple question, "What do you like the most about Romney", and see if you can get an answer.

1. Good idea!

Think I may do just what you did. I have ten dollars that says the response are the same as yours, "He's not Obama."

2. I don't think he's ever had high approval ratings...

IIRC, whenever he went somewhere to campaign, his approval numbers dropped.

The more people get to know him, the less they want to.

8. See? Nobody likes the guy.

Can't think of a single good thing to say about him.

5. I tried a similar experiment on FB.

I asked my Repug friends "what has the Republican party ever done for the common man"? Crickets. Not one answer, so I Googled the question and didn't find anything at all. No wonder no one has an answer - they've never done anything for the common man.
