(12,618 posts)Their world is crumbling and deep down they know it. If the best the have to offer is Romney then they really are in trouble. Poll are showing a shift in attitudes towards gay marriage. And more and more Americans are getting convinced that global warming is real.
Their lies are failing, and like a wounded animal, they lash out when cornered.
