Fascism as used by wikipedia and generally used in the analysis of social movements is an attribute of those movements not of mentalities, to quote the French. From that point of view, Romney's mental state has nothing to do with it.

This is in response to nothing but a fleeting glimpse of video I saw, sometime within the past couple of days, where some Republican campaign dude is on a talk show, and he says, "Mitt Romney has run businesses. What has Barack Obama ever run?"

My answer to that is a question. "What has Obama ever run apart from the executive branch of the United States government for the past four years, you mean?"

Seriously. Whatever perceived deficiencies Obama's resume may have had on January 21, 2009, you can't say that he lacks executive experience now.
