The other statement by Tigg, Togg...whoever, isn't getting as much attention.

That Mitt is "terrified" before a debate. In typical Romney fashion, he quickly flip-flopped to say it was simply nervous "butterflies".

The Romney camp would be better off by not allowing the family to stray out of their various mansions.

Mittnocchio does not DO campaign events after a BIG event. Queen Ann said she was worried about his mental stability. Now one of his birther sons says he suffers from pre-debate anxiety.

What is it with these names?

If they ever had twins, would they have been named Tic, Tac, and Toe?

up when he's alone, and he cancels an appearance on a women's show because he can't take women who are sharp-tongued.

Not exactly a profile in courage. Not exactly a profile in sanity, either.

or demand he sit down/stay out of Obama's space instead of stalking him when he's trying to answer a question.

We need to be able to see how he reacts to being forced to do something, as he's done nothing but argue or ignore the moderators up to this point. I want to see if he loses it, which I think he would. Just check out the look on his face from the last debate and a few other instances when he's lost his temper (or close to it). I don't think Mitt has been told "No!" very many times in his life and doesn't handle it well. We need to see if that's true.

If he has a short fuse, we don't need him near the button, so to speak.

Leaders like Putin, Ahmadinedjad, etc?

Also, we do not need someone with Willard's temperament with his finger on the nuke button.
