Is Mitt Romney the Joker in that graphic? Did he just eat a cherry lollipop? What is going on?

I like to imagine the text, with its interesting spacing and lack of punctuation, actually says: "Make no mistake, Obama. Care! Is Romney care?" An exhortation to compassion followed by a rhetorical question to which the answer is no.
