* Tandering - a new word has entered the Willard lexicon!



Go to this link and scroll down to vote 1-10 (nothing to OMG!)

That is not Willard's usual look, is it? It looks ... browner.
As though Romney was doing Ace Ventura: "In order to win the Mexican ... you must BE the Mexican!".

Or as though Romney was still thinking "Sure would be easier if I were Mexican".
Or maybe he just had a secret meeting with John Boehner and John is just rubbing off on him.

But I think this is just the pander-o-matic performing its usual function. Even Willard's skin is inauthentic. The witty NegSpin dubs this "Tandering", and I agree.

1. He's the darkest one on the set!

[Care Acutely]

7. Darker than most of the audience.

[flamingdem]

8. They can't even get skin tone right!

As said elsewhere -- what will they do to him for his BET interview

[Arugula Latte]

14. "Mirror, mirror on the wall. Who's the hispantannest of them all?"

[PatSeg]

18. "Hispantannest"

My new favorite word!

[sarcasmo]

2. Maybe he was hanging out with Boehner before the event.

[joeybee12]

3. I think he just caught John Boehner-itis...

It's sexually transmitted...oh my!

4. 'tandering' Haaaa!!

Love it. Heee... I'll be giggling all day.

[Ezlivin]

5. Let us now turn to the Book of Mormon, 1 Nephi 12:23

And it came to pass that I beheld, after they had dwindled in unbelief they became a dark, and loathsome, and a filthy people, full of idleness and all manner of abominations.

[flamingdem]

6. Have you been reading the "Book of Mormons"?

What else do they say about the dark, filthy and idle. That sounds like a quote from that secret Romney 50 grand a plate video.

[Ezlivin]

17. No

I didn't know about that book.

Thanks!

9. Look at the other two on the stage.

The woman seems to be thinking, "Get me out of here fast!" The other guy is thinking, "He's pointing to the lamp in the corner? What's that about?"

[ProSense]

10. Damn, the bronze makes his head look like a float in a parade.

[Blue Belle]

11. He looks like a claymation figure...

but sadly, not as animated.

[renate]

12. tandering!

I love it!

15. I just can't believe he'd do that

This whole thing was already resembling an episode of The Office, now it's gone all the way.

16. Mockery and it is insulting to pretend that anyone is dumb enough to believe it.
