A pretzel in the rain...

[kentuck]

Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan have both changed their positions in recent days. Romney is well-known for his flip-flopping but it was rather surprising to see that Ryan has done the same, with the stimulus and Medicare being the most recent examples.

After a while, they twist and distort their positions so much that nobody knows where they stand on any given issue, not even themselves. They are like a pretzel that has been lying in the rain. Nobody can recognize its original form. It is just wet and soggy, without substance.

Perhaps this is not the best analogy?

2. "Wet and soggy, without substance"?

I love it! Pretty good analogy to me.
