Take this with a grain of salt:

I have done my own informal poll...don't call Romney Mitt anymore refer to him as Willard, his real name....most people I have spoken to, feel Willard is wierder and makes him seem more out of touch.

It doesn't command any respect. I think it is worse than Willard. But listening to Romney is the worst of all.
He sounds shrill and whiney when he makes these ridiculous and over- the- top complaints about our president.
The more the other clowns are out of the way and the focus returns to Romney, the worse he looks: incoherent
and pandering.
