Romney is the worst politician I've seen in my lifetime

He can't connect with anyone that isn't a Mormon, and he's losing them, too.

Is this a planned stealth attack to use a brokered convention? This is literally the worst candidate that has run in 237 years. He has the personality of four day old dead pig bowels, and I'm being kind when thinking of making sausage out of them.

Who can imagine which of these two candidates could win - the incumbent with support or the candidate that is revealing himself to be a liar? OH, It must be Romney that is winning.

"I stand by whatever I said the the SEC, on my tax returns, and the line I gave the public. All I have to do is stand by whatever conflicting statements I said to seem like an appealing, strong cowboy mayor."

I used to think he set the gold standard for stiffness, weirdness, and lying. Unbelievably, Mittwit is worse in every way even though Nixon used to walk on the beach in a suit and dress shoes.

Nixon was such a prolific liar that Harry Truman once famously called him "a no-good lying son-of-a-bitch who can lie out of both sides of his mouth at the same time, and if he ever caught himself accidentally telling the truth, he'd lie just to keep his hand in." Romney lies with a facility that makes Nixon pale in comparison, a fact which borders on science fiction. The Mittwit has to be some sort of failed experiment by the High Priests of Kolob in attempting to create a lifelike automaton.

Owing to the gullibility, forgetfulness and the need for instant gratification of too many white Americans.

They don't have that candidate.

I salute you, GOP geniuses.

I promise that I will inform everyone I know that is white to not be so dumb as to vote for Mitt, if they aren't already smart enough to get it.

Hundreds of millions of $$$ and 6 wasted months of thinking Romney was the candidate and then him fall down in scandal....they must have known this would happen with him, but I can't imagine them thinking this is beneficial to their party in any way.

"Brace yourselves."

"Mitt Romney, Cowboy President."


or

"I could have been a President like you, but I lied a tax return to the SEC"
