I Almost Feel Sorry for Romney

and part of me is hoping that Romney had this planned all along, and is about to spring some totally heinous trap on Obama. Why?

Why would I hope that Romney is an evil genius?



Because if he isn't--if this is really how Romney thinks a well run campaign functions--then the next three months are going to be so god awfully bloody that after Team Obama spits out whatever bits of the Romney campaign they couldn't chew up and digest, there wont be enough left to top off the one of those tin begging cups, you know? The one that are exactly like the cups that the Romney offspring are never going to ever use, because even though he was savagely beaten, their dad was still a freaking mega-fuctillionaire?

Sorry to digress, but if what we are seeing is the real Romney, things are going to get really bad for him, really fast. Children will be watching the humiliation and burst into tears. Sympathetic souls will cry out "For God's sake STOP beating him, can't you see he's ALREADY DEAD?"



I don't think I can handle that level of political gore. Honestly.

So I hope Romney is an evil genius, and has some diabolical plan that will damage Team Obama - but just a little. I can't help it, it would be totally more fun to watch Obama crush an evil genius than it would be to watch Team Obamazilla cruelly stomp on the fragile, fluttering butterfly that is the Mitt Romney 2012 Presidential Campaign.

Oh I'll watch it...I just won't enjoy it. As much.

keep serving up fat pitches for the disciplined Obama team to hit out of the stadium, much less in to the seats. They learn absolutely nothing from their egregious miscues.

and Pride leads the list of the 7 deadly sins.

He is such an arrogant privileged brat that he actually believes people buy his crap, any way he decides to feed it to them.

No one ever stood up to the silly SOB before, and he is absolutely gobsmacked that someone finally punched back. Lead with a glass jaw and you will go down.

3. Romney has been running for office for 19 years. He's no genius, he's despised.

And I am thrilled to see someone with such an enormous sense of entitlement get humiliated and stopped into the ground by a man of color. Thrilled, thrilled, thrilled.

slight probably. Then, Obama will get a bump from the Dem convention. World events can change things more. Domestic issues can have a serious impact.

Obama is in a great position going into the last three months, but there is no reason to feel sorry for Mitt. Fuck em. He is the worst of the worst. Everything that is wrong with the US wrapped up in one. I don't pity him one bit.

It is definitely gonna get really ugly.

There's absolute panic out there in Fundyland... and Wall Street.

Their shit ain't working anymore, and the demographics point toward extinction.

But... I can't THINK of a more deserving group of people to get their comeuppance.

13. Ok, Romney Picked Ryan? Shit, I DO feel sorry

I really do.

you know Romney is desperate now, ANYTHING to get the attention off of his taxes.

But why on a Sat morning? Why throw a distraction when no one is watching?

Romney can't even fuck up correctly...he's like Jerry Lundegaard trying to bullshit his way out of his own inevitable fate in Fargo
