Mitt MIGHT answer that 3 AM call...but read this and see how willing he is to walk out of a meeting.

Tennessee Commissioner of Economic and Community Development Bill Hagerty, a key Romney adviser, acknowledged other candidates are vying for the Republican nomination but "it is important to put in the best person to stand up to Barack Obama."

Hagerty said he and Romney had both started their careers at the same firm and that he has known the candidate for more than half his life.

He told a story about Romney being in a meeting when he determined his son, Tagg, had lost a water ski, over which he was moping. [font color="red"]Romney left the meeting and went out in a boat for about 1½ hours until the ski was found,[/font] he said.

"He taught the value of perseverance," he said.

1. "He taught the value of perseverance."

2. I thought the same thing. Yet I wonder if he saw some poor miniority laying on the

ground would he call for help? Doubt it.

5. My thoughts on "the meeting"...

1). We have no idea of the magnitude of the meeting or Romney's immediate contribution. He COULD have left with no impact, or he COULD have left everyone else in the meeting high and dry while he went looking for his moping kid's ski.

2). Did he tell the truth to everyone present? Did he say "I have a family emergency" (lie) or "I'm going to leave for a couple of hours so I can go look for my spoiled rotten, moping kid's water ski" (truth)?

11. I don't know

3. Yeah, I wanted to let you guys FIND that little nugget.

I really wanted to comment on it..."He taught Tagg the value of moping."

[Brickbat]

7. Yes, Tagg dug down deep and found a little extra inside himself...

...to keep moping until Da-da came out and did the hard work for him so he'd stop being sad. What a beautiful lesson.

[Ilsa]

4. He chucked a business meeting

To chase down a lost ski? Good grief. I guess appeasing Tagg to make sure nothing aggravates his beautiful mind is top priority.

8. Tagg's an entitled little jerk

He's the one who:

1). Went Tweet-crazy when Mad Men "dissed" his granddad George

2). Went Tweet-crazy on Ted Nugent endorsing his dad (his now-infamous "How cool is THAT" remark)

6. Rumsfeldian

When the Pentagon was attacked, the SoD left any semblance of meeting to figure out what to do, and instead went sightseeing to look at the damage.

9. That's realistic isn't it

Nobody questioned him on as why he chose to help the victims instead of doing his job. Yet another mystery surrounding 9/11. But hey, "Go Shopping", and don't blame ANYONE. LOL!
Everyday we get more little tidbits of Mittens childish behavior.

10. "Tagg"? Is Mitty related to the Palins?
