like with Fox News, it's what they WANT TO HEAR - I don't think the truth matters at all to them

I once knew a fella whose favorite phrase was, "the masses are asses". I once thought he was an elitist for such an attitude. Now I agree with him.

A winning message. He really fired up that audience of ...dozens? The more I see Mitt, the less impressed I am.

At the polling place I casually mentioned that I'd need the Rep. ballot for the frothy mischief I was up to.
The election judge in the middle silently giggled at my comment.
The other two were pugs.

And when the camera pulled back the crowd looked small too.
I think most of the people at his event were made to stand behind
him for his speech. BTW RFW crowd ... really fucking white.

Standing up for less taxes on the rich and telling about all the jobs
he created at Bain ..... the man should be crushed in the general.

As per how many lies can he tell? As many as he wants to tell I
guess ... he stumbled over the failures of the stimulus because he
knows it worked.

He once shook his own hand because there wasn't anyone else in the room.

His words carry weight that would put every one else to sleep.

He likes his cheeseburgers burnt tl a crisp.

The military doesn't need crowd control weaponry to stop a riot - they just need a recording of one of his speeches.

He is the most awkward man in the world.

" I dont always drink beer but if I did... Oh beautiful for spacious skies... for amber waves of grain..."

Stay boring my friends.

Look @ that turn out must be 43 people there.

Mitt he listens to a dial tone to get ready to speak.

Mitt once went 3 days w/out shaving just let the world know he was rebel.

He is the most awkward man in the world.

paraphrase John Nance Garner.

But Mitt is deliciously insincere and freakishly calculating.
