[Cincinatus' Wife]

So I think Obama is all of those things, Marxist, Muslim and anti-colonialist, because they were part of the package. However, like any monster created by any Dr. Frankenstein, I’m not sure how controllable he is by them anymore. His bizarre personality or lack thereof swings from one of these things to another and his native lack of intelligence and inability to concentrate, coupled with his feeling that he doesn’t really have to do anything, he’s so special that he just has to be, make him very unpredictable and very likely also to turn on his creators at some point.

All points in your comment are spot on. The one I highlighted has been on my mind too.

I think that’s one of the things that makes Obama so hard to “debate.” Reality means nothing to him and is whatever he says it is; he’s not lying when he denies something that happened, but instead is simply revising the past in view of his needs, and in his mind, everything is magically changed so it’s not a lie. So in many ways, there’s nobody there to debate, because Obama can be anything he wants at any time that he chooses.

I don’t think Romney is a very good debater in general, but he’d probably be able to do a creditable job if he were simply debating another normal politician, and not a shape-shifting phantasm.

The only one who understood this is Newt Gingrich, who has the intelligence and background to be able to identify Obama as what he is, and would be relentless in calling him on it. Obama would probably have a melt-down in front of the television audience and we would be looking at the Dems having to vote for Biden or whoever was picked as a last-minute replacement candidate!
