Pres. Obama’s electoral staff invited us to meet Julia.
Who and what is the Julia’s real prototypes? Or, less politically correct speaking, “Who the hell is “Julia,” and why am I paying for her whole life?”
She looks like modern “emancipated – liberated” woman without husband (“married to the state” as pointed out the article commentator). Her electoral propensities are well illuminated by the table below:

So, definitely, unmarried Julia, relying on the government and heavily “invested” by the latter is natural obama-voter.
The strategy to reward their own hardcore liberal voters on the independent entrepreneurs’ cost is quite rational for Obama and for American leftists. They grab from their enemies to reward friends. I believe, Obama’s electoral staff addresses the potential pro-liberal activists, publicizing the message. The decision to target potential activists, ignoring all the rest voters looks quite reasonable on this stage of the campaign.
The question is, how self-made Americans and their devoted wives could defend their life-style, is still unanswered.
Would m-r Romney’s administration actually ready to divorce Julia, to save US budget, to save Julia’s real family and her chances to be happy? Or his best is “to cut program like … by 20%”?
