Ann Romney as a first lady??? She seems like an annoying, arrogant, rude woman to me.

[Logical]

Now, I am basing it on a handful of TV interviews, but I do not like what I have seen so far.

Another reason not to vote for Romney. Like we need any more reasons.

[Booster]

1. I think she's a bitch. The only thing she would be doing is having more dancing horses.

[savannah43]

17. I thought it was just me being nasty again.

She's a huge bitch. Take all that money away from her and what you have left is a jowly bleached blond with a BA in French from (surprise) Brigham Young who knows how to shovel horseshit. That last talent is what makes her so useful on the campaign trail.

[rbrnmw]

36. nope not just you I think the same thing

Rich botox bitch

[cleduc]

51. Me too

She comes across like she thinks she's a Duchess and the rest of "you people" are proletarians.

I can't recall having a big problem with any First Lady regardless of party. Some might have been a little aloof but most seemed like nice and decent people to me.

She's the least likable of all of them that I can recall.

[Whisp]

56. least likable of all of them - you are right!

I know Laura Bush got a whipping here regularly, and I probably chimed in a few times but she was a sweetie compared to this creep.

[Laurian]

31. That's the exact word I wanted to use!

I didn't because I was concerned that many here are offended by it. However, I cannot think of any other word that so succinctly describes the woman I saw in that interview.

[nc4bo]

2. Have no idea about there personal lives but I'd think Mitt would be a real bastard

to live with.

Just a guess.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

3. she would be horrible

[Fozzledick]

4. But we all bundle!

[nc4bo]

5. And puppies get to ride on the car roof. nt

[uponit7771]

38. +1!

[cabot]

6. She's just like her husband

Born wealthy. People always catered to her and she can't believe the presidency isn't being handed over to them, no questions asked.

[savannah43]

20. She acts like a cartoon character of a "rich bitch."

I wonder what they'd be like if they had started out as actual humans?

[cabot]

25. Very true!

It is scary when two sociopaths meet, isn't it?

[patrice]

7. Let's say this anyway: I CANNOT imagine that woman WORKING FOR THE PEOPLE, the way

Michelle Obama does.

[rocktivity]

13. That's "YOU people" to YOU!

rocktivity

[patrice]

18. Thanks for the catch!! Can't imagine her WORKING FOR YOU PEOPLE.

[JI7]

8. they seem like such a stereotypical wealthy couple

that feel they are entitled and all the little people owe them something .

i didn't get that with Cindy McCain, Laura Bush, even Babs or anyone else.

not even with other Republican Candidate wives(and husband) during this republican primary.

[cabot]

12. I like it when people call them Thurston and Lovey

It fits - except Thurston and Lovey were entertaining. These two are just annoying and arrogant.

[savannah43]

23. "Thirsty and Hatey" is more like it.

[starroute]

53. Babs came pretty close to it at times

Remember "But why should we hear about body bags and deaths, and how many, what day it's gonna happen, and how many this or that or what do you suppose? Or, I mean, it's not relevant. So, why should I waste my beautiful mind on something like that, and watch him suffer."

Or "Almost everyone I've talked to says, 'We're gonna move to Houston.' What I'm hearing, which is sort of scary, is they all want to stay in Texas... Everybody is so overwhelmed by the hospitality, and so many of the people in the arenas here, you know, were underprivileged anyway, so this (as she chuckles slightly) is working very well for them."

But I'll grant you that Babs has always had a grande dame snottiness about her that's almost endearing. Ann, in contrast, is just high-level white trash.

[Laurian]

9. Whoa....just saw part of the NBC interview with her on The Ed Show.

How dare anyone question her or Mitt about their taxes! Her attitude really pissed me off. I wish they would put her out there more. She could alienate a lot of voters.

[Logical]

29. That was what caused me to write the post. I hated her. n-t

[enough]

10. She's getting more irritated as time goes on. At first she was able to do the

nice-girl matron thing pretty well, but it's starting to wear on her.

[Whisp]

57. she's starting to look scared.

ODonnell said the clip would show her as angry, but I didn't see that so much as shittin' the pantaloons.

[targetpractice]

11. She is off-putting to say the least...

Both of them seem like narcissists to me.

[Freddie]

14. She reminds me of Nancy Reagan

The smug, superior air. She is even less likable than her husband, if that is possible.

Not all Repug first ladies are like this; Laura Bush was a down-to-earth good person (despite her bad taste in men) IMO.

[catbyte]

28. I can't believe I am writing this, but Nancy Reagan is much more charming

Than Lovey. Did I just say that? LOL!

[rbrnmw]

39. yep and Nancy was classier

I liked Laura Bush and Babs until her Huurricane Katrina comment

[DURHAM D]

47. Really? If you ever liked Babs you were not paying attention. nt

[Hassin Bin Sober]

52. What did Nixon say? "Now there's a woman who knows how to hate"

[nc4bo]

15. Something about Ann

Her looks change dramatically. Is it make-up or lighting, botox wearing out? Line around her top lip looks like she smokes but that's just pure ass-umption on my part.

Someone on DU said it's because of the MS but I also thought I read that her type of MS is mild and in remission.

I think she's a hateful, selfish person but she could be also be a Stepford wife type or maybe none of those things.

We're going to do everything possible NOT to find out!!

[kestrel91316]

22. All True Believing Mormon women are Stepford wives.

It's a requirement.

[jmowreader]

55. It's makeup, or more precisely her inability to use it properly

She still does herself up (or requires the little person who has to do her up) like she was 25, and she's too old for that style of makeup. There are WAY too many recent pictures of her wearing charcoal shadow--the last thing she should even think of wearing.

There's also the part about her hating poor people, who to Ann Romney is anyone with less than $150 million in liquid assets.

[Ruby the Liberal]

16. I was 'meh' but I am starting to have a visceral reaction to her now.

The entitlement mentality just oozes from this woman's body language and tone of voice.

Makes me miss Pickles. At least she had enough class to handle the role.

[Skittles]

19. Mrs. Romney is completely incapable of relating to non-rich folk

she is actually insulting when she tries

[kestrel91316]

21. She'll be unhappy at having to live at the WH, where she can't keep her horses.

And it's old......and THOSE PEOPLE lived there before her so she'll have to practically gut the place to get rid of the cooties..........and it simply ISN'T big enough or fancy enough for her.

[Ineeda]

27. Luckily, she won't have to live there.

Nor be allowed to visit or even walk by without averting her gaze. I might let her pick up Bo's poo from the south lawn though.

[NNN0LHI]

30. And, gasp, no car elevators

What self respecting billionaire would live in a place with no car elevators?

Don

[YellaDog1950]

49. Like the beach house the Romneys purchased in La Jolla.....

They are probably making premature plans to tear down the White House and rebuild.

[GoCubsGo]

24. She seem that way to me, too.

She's just like her husband--smug, self-important, and another fucking liar.

[NNN0LHI]

26. She could pass for Anna Nicole Smith's twin sister

[pnwmom]

32. She views herself as a future goddess, and Mitt as a future god. Literally.

Here they are, having to fight for the measly little position of President of the United States, when they are meant -- after they die -- to be the god and goddess of their own personal planet, producing countless spiritual children.

It must be very hard on them, having to be so patient with all of us little Earthlings.

[Logical]

40. +1

[Laurian]

33. Did I hear or read that she was the one who really wanted Mitt to run for President?

If so, she's not very good at this. What did she think? That they'd just waltz into the White House? How presumptuous. She acts like she doesn't want to be bothered by these pesky details.....

[tblue37]

48. "What did she think? That they'd just waltz into the White House?" Yes--

precisely. As she told one TV interviewer, "It's our turn."

[Ilsa]

34. I wonder: What Would Her FLOTUS Advocacy Issue Be?

Trying to make sure all the little white girls have ponies?

Tax Privacy for public officials?

Making certain only $1,000 t-shirts are sold in the US?

[pnwmom]

41. Dancing horses. n/t

[mucifer]

35. We don't vote for first lady. Mrs. Lincoln was not ideal.

[Fumesucker]

43. Other than that Mrs Romney, how did you like the Olympics?

[UTUSN]

37. K&R I'd hit that reason!1 n/

[lonestarnot]

42. I know one thing for sure, I wouldn't wanna have a beer with her as she would be wearing it at

the point in the conversation in which she became indignant about hiding tax returns from Americans that she is wanting and asking to vote for her husband, who could very well be hiding a felony.

[Flatpicker]

44. I'm fully convinced

That Mitt getting elected would be the start of American Royalty.

It'd probably also be the start of a French Revolution style uprising that could take 10-20 years to come to an end.

[mom2threegirls]

45. I'm sure that she and Barbara Bush would get along well...

...they could have long conversations about "those people".

[Submariner]

46. Secret Service expenses for 5 kids, 16 grandkids, a dancing horse

and homes in New Hampshire, California and where ever else would be budget busters. We economize by re-electing Obama.

[PatSeg]

50. She's blown any good will people had for her

Her husband is running for PRESIDENT of the United States and to get all pissy because people want to know about her husband's finances shows how clueless these people are. We should just trust them on their word???

I didn't have an opinion about Ann Romney in the beginning, but she's starting to show her true colors - "the dog loved it", "YOU people", etc. Sorry lady, but if someone is applying for the highest office in the land, his employers are entitled to more than your assurance that his "integrity is golden".

[tex-wyo-dem]

54. That's because she is annoying, arrogant and rude...

She's the very definition of an arrogant self-centered, self-entitled aristocracy wannabe who feels the world revolves around them and all us poor underlings can just gaze up at her while she waves at us with her silk-gloved diamond-encrusted hand from her perch atop the castle. She really feels sorry for us (not really...it's just our lot in life). She makes babs Bush look like just a kindly old woman.
