has ever run for the presidency. It boggles the mind.

reads about himself in the news. He has surrounded himself with deaf and blind people..

pol I can remember and even he would never have said something this monumentally dumb. Rmoney makes the Trickster look almost as smooth and sharp as Bill Clinton can be at his best.

hilarious. All I could think of was Sinatra's "The Lady Is A Tramp"..."She don't wear diamonds and pearls." He was trying so hard to be the ordinary guy, total fail...LOL..

video of the Checkers Speech and read about it in many books. At least Nixon wasn't lying about the coat, though he was lying through his teeth about the slush fund, which was a somewhat open secret even then.

I was old enough (17) to sit in the living room with my dad (a union mechanic all of his working life until he was injured) when ole' Dick resigned. My dad's comment? "Good riddance to that goddam crook!" Years later I read the famous quote of Harry Truman's:

"Richard Nixon is a no good, lying bastard. He can lie out of both sides of his mouth at the same time, and if he ever caught himself telling the truth, he'd lie just to keep his hand in."

Harry knew what was what, didn't he?

Watergate was my real political coming of age, though RFK was my hero at age 11-12.

as a democrat to my repub family. Mom didn't talk to me until Christmas the year he was elected...Bwahaha, lord what great days they were.

He seems to be surrounded by amateurs and idiots. Who is writing his speeches? Who is booking a huge stadium for a crowd of about a thousand? Who is giving this guy advice???

... I envision staff trying to shoot Romney with tranquilizer darts whenever he speaks extemporaneously!

No respectable campaign manager would look at this and say "Yeah, this will be great". Wow! Add this epic fail strategy to the list of screwups from his staff. But then, we have the candidate himself reminding us how many cars his family needs for all the mansions. Wow again!
Also add that he fired the debate coach that had better prepared him because he took a little credit.
To say that the next staff meeting will be a bit tense and awkward is an understatement.
Keep the crazy coming, Romney. It is so fun to watch.

A bet from Romney to Perry $10,000.00
Two cadillacs $150,000.00
Obama 2008 stadium compared to Romney stadium.....priceless

... good staffers, and incompetent ones.

...over 200,000 miles on it. Mitt has HOW MANY cars?

I don't mind him having as many as he can afford...but to make a comment like that is ridiculous.

boy, they sure missed an opportunity there...

because there was nowhere for Seamus to ride.

"Pulling a Romney". Does he even realize how these statements sound to the average American voter?

It is mind boggling to say the least.

He has been in his ivory tower for so long that he doesn't even know how to pretend to relate to people.

Rmoney certainly would be a contender.

I think it should be called The Weiner, that moment of stupid when campaign or career is self screwed right out of existence.

"I manage a couple of my own banks". He seems to be trying to impress us with the fact that his wife drives her own car. What'll you bet that the chauffeur is the one who usually drives them. And why does his wife have TWO caddies? Could it be that she keeps them at separate mansions?

"This isn't Saudi Arabia. We let our women drive."

Who knows with him. If a thought ever tried to cross his mind, it probably died of thirst.

I can just picture a poor thought trying to cross that wasteland, gasping and struggling . . . .

Does anyone have any idea what he is even talking about? Is it code for something?

Telephone poles neeed to be a certain height.

tone as he did earlier, speaking like a person who is begging for his life at the wrong end of a gun. This policy that republicans practice of repeating stupidity, appealing to their masses, is beyond me. If you say something stupid repeatedly, it does not make it any less stupid.

If you have lived in different places - or even visited them, close your eyes and try - in turn - to visualize each one. Now, I do know know the average height of trees in Massachusetts, where he was Governor or NH where he vacations - or any of his other many places.

I suspect - that almost in a rosebud (Citizen Kane) way that the look and size of the trees connected with his image of his world in the early 1950s. The comment is almost impressionistic and seemed to be coming from somewhere deeper than his typical words. It is clearly not thought out as there really is no one best height.

he would have yanked him from outta there and tell him to sit down and stfu, don't speak anymore.

My ghosh the headache, how are they going to spin this one?

The chances that Flip-Flopper or anybody in his family owns anything other than Benzes, Jags, etc are approximately 4 x 10 to the minus 42 power.

Of course, if his bluff is called, he can order his servants to clean the spare change out of the sofas at his homes & buy 10 or 20 CTS-Vs.

Shit.

at the same time...he really is talented. The secret service couldn't keep up with him!

pulling one and pushing the other.

He has absolutely no idea what it is like to not be filthy, stinking rich. Every time he opens his mouth, he proves it. His handlers must the same, or too stupid to censor the man.

Mitt, having four vehicles, at least three of them high end, for two people is not generally the kind of personal fleet that poor or even middle class people have. My partner and I are driving a 1996 Taurus with 175,000 miles on it, and we are both thankful every day to even have that. We were at the mercy of a poorly set up local bus system before we had that, which meant several miles walked in bitter cold each day. I'd take the bus and say "screw the car!" if the bus system was good around here. Four cars! Two Cadillacs! How DO they ever survive, living in such meager conditions!

Then at least the Republican meme about people on Temporary Cash Assistance would be partially true.

What else can it be?

covered in dog poop at any given time. Can't expect Mitt's wife to drive a shitty car!

Yeesh!

How did he ever get elected governor?

And the picture of the stadium says it all right there...the Pukes don't care if anyone shows up, they don't care about people.

Obama could still probably do that.

He is so awkward at it I think some aliens took over his body and don't know the parlance of the times.

However, you do know that the first one was after he was the nominee.

I'm fully expected to get hit with that.

Can someone find 2008 Democratic campaign trail shots?

especially during a recession.

seen Romney's homes/mansions, especially the one that's "inadequate" and needs to be expanded to 11,000 sq. ft.

A Caddy at each lovely home...................how special!

He doesn't even understand what he is saying is wrong!

If anyone thinks any of these clowns are going to fix the economy they're sadly deluded.
