Sociopaths are just very focused and goal oriented. He lies and changes position and just is seamless moving between the truth and fantasy. Sociopaths are not necessarily criminals. Many of the worlds leading dictators or business executives have achieved great success with a sociopath personality. I have a business partner who is a classic sociopath. A bully as a child. A person who was incredibly selfish and would never follow rules. Many sociopaths easily get into drugs and alcohol, and those who do not often find great success in business. They are classic work addicted, and often have distant relations with their families.....Romney is close with his family, he does not abuse drugs, but he has taken this personality disorder and built success. My partner is just the hardest worker, and he will try any method including cheating to not pay taxes, he always is getting audited on Workman comp where he has cheated, and he fights over every dime a sub contractor makes, and he is unable to socialize in a normal card game, party, or other standard social interactions. He is a one dimensional dollar machine. They can function in society, and the two I know in business are extremely successful, but to have these folks as president of the United States......yes Ann Romney has warned us about her husband's emotional state, and his manic debate presence where all facts were pretty much obliterated, will be followed by deep anxiety and depression......the person who we saw the weeks before the debate is just as much a part of the disorder as the manic success of the debate. This man is sadly going to lose the election, and I share his wife's concerns.....but I hope I do not take these worries into the White House. I play poker. I win through observations. I am not always right, but it is simple probabilities and I would suggest that most other thinking Americans know who is sitting at the table.
