Campaign scrambles after Romney admits Obama didn’t raise taxes

“I admit this, he has one thing he did not do in his first four years — he’s said he’s going to do in the next four years, which is to raise taxes,” Romney told a crowd in Ohio as a visibly uncomfortable vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan looked on.

“Paul Ryan looked like someone just punched him in the stomach,” PolitcusUSA’s Jason Easley noted. “The really priceless moment is happening behind Romney, as Paul Ryan realizes what Romney said, and tries his very best to maintain his smile. Ryan’s face transformed into a pained expression, as Romney accidentally let loose with a bit of truth.”

Then Ryan looks over to the side with a "Wait...did he just say that?" look. Priceless.
