2012 Mitt Reminds Crowd to Chant His Name, Too, Not Just Paul Ryan's Name
Posted by Dan Savage on Tue, Sep 25, 2012 at 3:38 PM
Now it's just getting sad. Oh, and... at least one of Romney's sons is an asshole too.

So you guys over there at the stranger offices just don't communicate, do you?
That said, Romney is pretty pathetic. Every time my brother talks about how great Romney is I lose respect for him.

Wow. That hospice story makes me sad.
It's more proof that the Romneys believe that anyone that inconveniences them is a blight. Poor people, minorities, and elderly need to find their own little island and stop hurting the property values that they hold so dear!

Not quite as bad as Fred Thompson having to solicit applause at a poorly attended campaign event, but close.

More and more Romney is looking like a socially inept dork, who puts his foot in his mouth...but ends up being successful and doing the right things.
Meanwhile, in the White House...

I see this as a measure of Romney's insecurity, or Romney being mindful of the lesson of 2008, when Palin stole all of McCain's thunder. Maybe both.

You've missed the truly awesome import in that video: didn't you notice that Romney had hair out of place? I lived in MA when he was Governor (well, when he had the title; he was almost never in the state), I've watched him run for President twice, and I don't think I've seen that before.

Yes, please arrogantly correct the spontaneously cheering crowd at your rally.
That'll get ya votes, Willard.

The resemblance between Mitt & his son there is creepy. Like they're genetically engineered clones created 30 years apart or something.

I hate Mittens as much as anyone here, but listen to the cheer. Sounds like the crowd is chanting Romney and Mitt put Ryan's name in.

@14: Exactly. Dan, they were chanting "ROMNEY", and he corrected them to "ROMNEY, RYAN" because he was asking them to give it up for Ryan.
Come on, now. Don't forget that everything you know about Romney is filtered through a liberal echo chamber and it's so easy to project a personality onto someone you don't know personally. You do not honestly know that he's a douche - you just know that you FEEL that way about him. That's no way to deal with politics. Talk about how his policies are shit instead.

@15, that's such a good comment I'm sure you'll get flamed badly for it here.
There's just one problem with talking about his policies, though. Nobody knows what they are.

Sounds like Ryan to me. Even right wingers are cringing at the moment.

We conspiracy theorists know full well how people so inept and so dense and insensitive can come up wealthy even when their errors should result in failure. The One world government people are already in power! So someone who cannot speak in public can build a 4 Million dollar home, so a man who couldn't even earn a "gentleman's C" at Yale can sell a failing franchise at a huge profit. Yes, young man I will come quietly. Where are we going?
