Whoever is reading this probably feels the same as I do about him. But how do you think those 9% in the middle feel about him today? Or even the more sentient among his supporters?
His handlers have GOT to be shitting in their pantz.

(135,425 posts)That's how I think his comments were taken.
The minute he said Khanshtitushhshun instead of Constitution, I knew that he was "on" something, and he wasn't gonna make a lick of sense.
Aside from his remarks, he looked every minute of his stated age--no four hundred dollar make-up job...either that, or the lighting was cruel. Hair too dark, too--either a bad dye job this time around, or too much pomade.
He looked like a carefully crafted robot at the point of starting to become unhinged...

(13,776 posts)... about Obama apologizing, because before the Republican convention and Ryan's speech, the established reputation of the campaign for lying hadn't really gotten started yet. And I think that if the race hadn't devolved into the disaster for Romney that it is becoming, the MSM wouldn't be making such a big deal out of his pathetic and embarrassing attempts to capitalize on this tragedy. But now, I think those who are still in the middle will finally hear from news sources they trust that his comments were unreservedly stupid. The close race story isn't believable any more, so the MSM have this new reality-TV-type story that will keep viewers interested. The Romney campaign is like Jersey Shore... viewers will watch because they can't believe people actually behave as disgracefully as that.

And I don't remember Robot even using their names
I was watching Robot trying to see some sliver of humanity, but I was left with a feeling that he was happy this happened
And now there is a photo of him smirking which confirms my worst fears. This man has not soul

(32,748 posts)but the right wing blogosphere is very happy! It's hard to say, but based on the repubs on MSNBC, my guess is that the middle will be unhappy.
