Kessler looks at the latest post-modern Romney ad: post-modern because truth is completely immaterial to this propagandist dreck. It's one thing to broadcast untruths, or misleading half-facts as obvious truths; it's another to be called out on them, refuse to change them, and intensify their reach.
But it's working.
Obama is now fighting for his political life. And right now, to my genuine horror, he's losing to a fraud, a war-monger, a liar and a budget-buster.

There is so much cross-information out there that one does not feel sure-footed in calling the race. It looks to me like Obama may have a nominal lead, but that Romney has the momentum going into these last two weeks. I'm afraid that the race will be so close that it will come down to how well the Republicans can push/cheat the system, and that this race may be a lot like the 2000 Bush-Gore contest.
