Every time this jerk opens his piehole I have to look, because I can't believe he can constantly spew this clueless, moronic crap.

he is McCain on steroids.

it was sad watching McCain four years ago, because he was SO desperate and was willing to do anything to win, including the last ditch, thoughtless selection of Palin as his ticket mate.

Mittens is even worse.

Because the media now gives him a pass, he makes no effort to be consistent in what he says, and is absolutely willing to say completely bizarre stuff about how Obama is what he is, and how he actually is better than Obama on things President Obama is great on.

The media just shrugs it off - complete lie or fabrication or head scratching BS, "aw, that is just Romney being Romney, President Obama has REAL problems ... blah, blah ..."

The huckster and snake oil salesman can't remember what position he had but whatever it was he stands by it. His beliefs on Wednesday are the same as they were on Monday, no matter what happened on Tuesday. Rmoney is a nut.

Only in America can such a juicy piece of political junkfood be had. As a huge fan of all things satirical and ironic, I'm really loving this Presidential race. But there's going to be such a sad note ringing in the air when it's all over. Can't wait to see what 2016 has in store for us.

sometimes the scene of an accident is something you know is better to turn away from, but the Romney Campaign is too messed up not to stare and glare at for hours on end.

Sort of a living lava lamp of ludicrousness - ever changing, every sploodging
