2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumI am sure I have just missed it,
but, does Romney ever hug anyone? I mean I just saw a clip of him from the 4th, he was shaking hands at a distance. I am constantly seeing pictures of Obama hugging people.
Does Romney not hug,
Does no one want to be hugged by Romney,
Or have I just missed it?

(15,682 posts)or be hugged by him? Maybe he has figured out how offensive he is and is trying to respect people's space? Nah. He's just a cold, antisocial, bastard.

(8,224 posts)I probably would just to not make a scene. (I once shook hands with JEB - he was in my office, coming out as I was walking in... tough to avoid). Hug him? I don't think so.

(13,613 posts)Wanna bet you see him be very careful, never touching his face or anything. I bet he'd wear surgical gloves if he could. He probably washes his hands or uses sanitizer immediately.

(2,307 posts)Romney's crowds are very white, maybe a black here or there serving or working but not showing up to hear him speak.
Obama on the other hand has young and old, black and white, a complete slice of America.

I think he likely whacked off into a turkey baster and his wife took if from there to impregnate herself.

(45,319 posts)It's hard with the cosmetics do do a lot of random hugging of 'the gentiles' without leaving marks and greasy spots.
