Here's what he said:
"It's not the language I would have used."

That, my friends, is bold leadership.

come on Mittens, that is as strong as you can get? 'it's not the language I would have used.'?? Couldn't you be a little stronger or showed a bit of leadership by calling out Limpballs?

I wonder what words he would have used??
I guess he wants us to guess
gratuitous
(82,849 posts)Because implied in Romney's comment on the vile human being's latest is that Romney agrees with him, just not the choice of language.

(But can he sustain this heightened level of righteous outrage?)

(21,925 posts)We don't know if he thinks the words were too extreme or not extreme enough. Romney's statement says nothing and certainly is no repudiation. WHAT A GRADE A #1 COWARD.

Sadly, but succinctly, true.
I heard one of the right wing talking heads imply Santorum would be punished for his firmer stand on this but Romney should be safe because he didn't piss off Rush too much....
