Are you saying you believe Obama’s goal is to get you to vote for Romney, by pretending that Romney is anti gay marriage when he really isn’t??

Excuse me, but that’s what I thought you said at the end of your post.

For any reason, no matter what, why would Obama’s goal be to get you to vote for Romney??

OR, by the words “vote for him”, did you mean convince you to vote for Obama?? Instead of Romney? But why would you do that, when the reason you don’t like Romney is because you supported Santorum on social issues and for other, conservative ideological, reasons?

Frankly, I’m lost in trying to understand.

My apologies for being unclear. The “/sarc” (sarcasm) tag might have helped.

I'm one of those people who is so upset about Mitt Romney's repeated flip-flops on abortion, homosexuality, and related issues that I frankly don't know what I'm going to do this fall. I voted for Santorum in Missouri (Gingrich wasn't on the ballot) and then after he dropped out before our district and state conventions that selected the actual delegates, did what I could quietly behind the scenes to support Gingrich.

What I was trying to say, but apparently didn't say very well, is that Obama is so extreme that he's managing to make Romney look good by comparison. I can only guess what Obama thinks he can achieve by taking radical and extreme steps like this which could have the effect of driving moderate voters into Romney's camp while at the same time making more militant conservatives like me wonder if “Anybody but Obama” really is the best way to vote since Obama is so horrible.

Does that make any more sense?
