especially as we are talking about VP Biden here.

Don't get me wrong - I really love the guy - but Romney has left even him speechless.

people are missing the true gravity of romney's "inelegant" remark ... and Democrats everywhere should be pointing it out, especially with the African continent on fire and the Middle East heating up ...

Ask your local gop supporter:

Are you really comfortable with romney's frequent "Inelegant" remarks, especially if he were to ascend to the Office of POTUS, where his every comment has consequences ... One "Inelegant" comment, especially in the area of foreign affairs, can spark a real war?"
