Romney's Horrible Gaffes Are Still Trending All Over US Media

by marianevans

I'm still impressed by all the not-good US media coverage of Romney's First Foreign Trip, now known as Incompetents Abroad.

Romney was no doubt hoping that his Hindenberg-scale London disaster wouldn't leave much of an impression on Americans, but there's evidence that the story is sticking.

Here's a selection of items still topping the most-read/most-commented lists on US-based websites:

Most Commented at Business Insider: Mitt Romney's Trip To London Is A Total Disaster, And Here Are The Headlines To Prove It

"Most Popular" at The Blaze (Glenn Beck's website!): 'Incomprehensible': Charles Krauthammer ‘Out of Adjectives’ to Describe Romney Olympics Remark

"Most Read" at Slate: Why Romney’s Foreign Blunders Represent His True Worldview

Most Popular at the WaPo Politics: "Romney bans media from Jerusalem fundraiser, violating pre-established protocol." Whoever wrote that piece managed to sound actually quite annoyed in a straight-up news headline, signaling that Romney has pissed off his press entourage some more - having already pissed them off once in London.

How about the Israeli press? Here's Romney on A1 of the Jerusalem Post: "Romney arrives following rough start to foreign tour in London."

A final indignity: as I write this, #RomneyShambles is trending again on Twitter.
