Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsMitt sure likes to complain. A real downer.
One thing most presidential candidates have in common is a positive attitude. And Mormons are so "on" that I expected Mitt to be unbearably sunny.
But the guy is a stone drag. Ingracious. An unkind word for everyone. He dislikes people, in general.
His comments about the London Olympics were tonally the same as his comments about that woman's store-bought cookies.
Just a negative guy.

Romney isn't. At all.

(24,452 posts)3. At least Eeyore is a "positive pessimist"!
Republicans in general are downers. They are all about doom and gloom and fear and and anger and hatred, particularly when they are out of power (but even when they are, they still find plenty to complain about). They want to take away, never give, never share, never deliver any good news about anything that matters to most average people. What drives people into voting Republican I'll never fully comprehend. Being a Republican seems, at least to me, to be a pretty miserable existence.........unless you're really wealthy.

two years roaming the French streets trying to get Mormon converts. think in all that time he only got one or two
