Well, now I've heard it all...

Just got back from a morning shopping trip, overhead two obvious TeaBaggers talking in line..

"Well, looks like the Kenyan is gonna steal the election, all the polls are showing Romney ahead, but we know how that's gonna work out"

"Don't worry about it, if they do steal it, we have the polls to back up the fact that WE won, I've already been hearing plans that if he does steal it, our people in congress are gonna rise up, declare the election invalid and drag him off in chains as we take back the country and the government. It's been in the works for a while."


(massive facepalm)

Cause you both sound paranoid and delusional. Are you related? Schizophrenia runs in families.

The delusion is reinforced by Fox and all of Romney's surrogates (like Kasich) who hit the airwaves and proclaim Romney is leading in national AND swing state polling. The fact that they are lying never penetrates because these sheep never seek out and READ the actual polls.

If Obama wins they will automatically think that the race was stolen due to the crap they listen to day in and day out. Some of these fools are violent too.

(I know, I know... but I just wanted to hear something on the radio beside hurricane news for a few minutes)

He was talking about Gallup... how supposedly so many more Republicans than Democrats will be voting and he called it (I quote) an "INSURMOUNTABLE LEAD" for Romney.

The RWNJs have been building this narrative for months, that no matter what MOST of the polls say in the swing states if Obama wins it is because the election was STOLEN... despite the fact that it is REPUBLICANS who have been purging, suppressing, defrauding, buying machines, and generally cheating in any way possible.
