BULL CRAP: Romney took away prompters to 'speak from heart'

January 28, 2008

Right-Wing Blog Says Yes, Romney Wears Earpiece

http://cannonfire.blogspot.com/2012/01/promptergate-2.html
During Gov. Romney’s speech, one of his handlers mentioned to one of our staff people that any time Gov. Romney needed to wrap things up, he would be happy to let Gov. Romney know through the ear-piece that he wore.

Romney took away prompters to 'speak from heart'
Mitt Romney aides made a sudden decision to remove teleprompters from the hall at his Des Moines victory party because the candidate wanted to "speak from his heart," said Eric Fehrnstrom, a senior Romney official.

I suspect if Romney were to speak from his "heart", it would sound like this: Fire Walk With Me Jan 2012 #7
Can't he just play back the speech stored on his internal hard drive? yellowcanine Jan 2012 #8

His internal solid state drive provides the text for output by his 'voice approximation system.'

... where John Carradine crumples up his "prepared speech" and

When someone looked at the pages they were all blank.
Romney is just another no-talent bullshitter.
