Looks like there is a crisis for Reuters. Their boy has raised less money.

Time to redouble the effort to distort the truth, talk up Obama and dig up anything they can on Romney in the interests of biased reporting.

Perhaps Romney’s great great grandfather did something awful to someone somewhere – perhaps they can Photoshop (as is their want) a picture to show the terrible travesty.

The democrats are in trouble. Obama will lose in a landslide, along with many of his partners in crime.
