The 2012 presidential election provided plenty to look back upon:
10. A slew of people you don’t know threaten to move to Canada after the Supreme Court’s controversial ruling in favor of the Affordable Care Act.
9. Obama first uses the term “Romnesia” to describe Mitt Romney’s seemingly endless switching of positions in October. Then he uses it again. And again.
8. Romney’s adviser, Eric Fehrnstrom, prefers to compare his inconsistent positions to an “Etch-a-Sketch”- apparently, “you can kind of shake it up and restart all over again.”
7. The Romney camp prematurely pronounces the Republican candidate “president-elect” on his official website. The celebratory message was taken down after a brief moment, but screenshots remain forever accessible on the Web.
6. Poor Mitt Romney’s innocent slip of the tongue in the second presidential debate becomes the punch line of the season; meanwhile, “binders full of women” become the year’s most popular Halloween costume.
5. Joe Biden apparently can’t suppress his ridiculous laughter at the vice presidential debate.
4. America eats up a viral video of four-year-old Abby Evans sobbing because she’s “tired of Bronco Bama and Mitt Romney.”
3. Men and women everywhere can’t help but cringe at Todd Akin’s use of the term “legitimate rape.”
2. Obama expresses his belief that “if you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that.”
1. Candy Crowley, moderating the second presidential debate, loses all credibility with her almost-but-not-quite accurate “fact-checking” of Governor Mitt Romney.
