Romney in England: "Worse than Sarah Palin!"

From Daily Kos, July 26, 2012

Romney's very bad london trip

The Daily Mail is a British tabloid. A conservative one, in fact. James Chapman is the paper's political editor and a self-proclaimed Tory, and has been tweeting Mitt Romney's visit to his country.

Romney blunders again by revealing he's had (supposedly) top secret briefing by John Sawers, MI6 boss. Do we have a new Dubya on our hands?

The US media is so compliant he's gotten into the habit of lying, race baiting and contradicting himself on a daily basis.

Now that he's taken his act to the UK he's going to mocked, hounded and bullied. He's got such a thin skin I think we might get treated to the spectacle of Mitt absolutely losing it on camera.

Fun!

To me he seems oblivious to the waves of disapproval washing over him-- he just doesn't seem to be "all there." I guess he figures since he's so entitled to everything that people everywhere will fall in love with him. It's truly a mystery.

They tell him to demand an apology, and he obligingly does so. Funny how those relentless thugs turn into delicate doilies when they perceive even a whisper of criticism! Like dubya, Nitt seems impervious to it. Perhaps neither rich boy was ever reprimanded for any bad behavior when they were growing up.

'Apparently devoid of charm, warmth, humour or sincerity'

That about sums it up and is exactly why he will lose this election.
