Conservative columnist: ‘Romney is a dork’

Conservative columnist: ‘Romney is a dork’

While discussing Mitt Romney’s admission of owning multiple cars, Washington Post conservative columnist Kathleen Parker labeled the GOP presidential candidate a “dork” Sunday morning.

“You know Mitt Romney has a very hard time connecting, I think we’ve accepted that,” Parker said on Meet The Press. “And I think we can also unanimously conclude that Mitt Romney, for all of his good qualities, is a dork.”

“So we have to think of him, or Republicans have to think of him, independents have to think of him, as a doctor, okay. He’s a doctor who doesn’t have a bedside manor. Ultimately, do you really care? Voters are going to have to put aside the fact that he’s not connecting and then just decide whether he’s got what it takes to fix the economy.”

But seriously, I really feel more comfortable hearing that Ann Romney is out with the caddy than hearing the same thing about Callista Gingrich.

The economy has been fixed by the good Dr. Obama and his team. It is still in critical condition, but is showing signs of progress each day.
As for Dr Romney and his team, that damn near kill it w/ their experiments, I doubt the patient or it's family want to see them back again any time soon.

I'm gonna make them happy no matter how much it costs them.

Every time I see Romney, I think of it.
