We all know, including the OP, that Obama has to win and that Rmoney is one of the most unbelievably irretrievably horrible people to ever run for the White House. The OP is voting Obama, I'm voting Obama, you're voting Obama. But fuck this nonsense where people are told that they can't have problems with this administration, where they're told to shut up and go elsewhere. Fuck that a million times. That is the most toxic, undemocratic and anti-Democratic attitude possible and it happens far, far too often. This OP is not some troll, and neither is anyone else here who is voting for Obama but doesn't like some of the things that have gone down. Half of you are acting like, if you aren't voting with a smile while whistling "America, Fuck Yeah!" then you're just a no-good crybaby who wants a dictator. The dismissiveness and arrogance of that approach to people here is pathetic.
