Romney To Sit For Network Interviews Today

Source: Buzzfeed

The source said Romney will sit down with ABC, NBC, and CBS, and will air on the nightly news broadcasts.

The interviews come on the heels of a grueling week of campaign press for him — dominated by a Boston Globe story yesterday that re-awakened concerns over Romney's record at Bain Capital.

1. Oh, won't THAT be fun?

Pass the popcorn, please, my dear Will...

[hlthe2b]

2. So many lies will probably trip my cable.

I'll look forward to the "after-report"

[monmouth]

35. He's doing this on a summer Friday night?...LOL...n/t

[randome]

3. He could have made his case in a speech.

But he's doing it this way, instead. So clueless...

I predict he will make things worse, provided the interviewers ask him real questions. Actually, even if they don't, he may make things worse.

[NYC Liberal]

4. That's what I thought.

He'll have to answer questions, rather than just talking to a passive audience. Of course, that assumes he'll actually be asked real questions. I'm hoping he is.

[Marrah_G]

5. I can't wait for Mittens to try and talk his way out of this.

[flamingdem]

6. The man is going to dance big time

This is the real test of his presidency, is he TEFLON or fly paper?

[Cognitive_Resonance]

7. Yep, widening his horizons beyond the cozy confines of Fox "News" nt

[Pirate Smile]

8. Politico is reporting that the questioners will be Peter Alexander (NBC -WTF?), Jan Crawford (CBS -

Scalia & Thomas's favorite reporter) and Jon Karl (ABC).

I take it Romney got to pick his questioners. Alexander isn't even a political or policy reporter. Hard to ask follow ups if you don't know the details enough to ID BS.

[annabanana]

16. Oh fer cryn' out loud. We do not want WHIFFLEBALL!

The sole purpose of this roll out is to muddy the waters. No doubt.

[freshwest]

9. Thanks for the good news. The discussion Obama wanted from the conflict with Booker is coming.

The media will muddle the issues, but we have to keep on focus. It should be people above profits.

[librechik]

10. 3 minutes of softballs and no answers X 3

prove me wrong, MSM--I would love that

[Rosa Luxemburg]

11. There is so much more on Romney and Bain

The GOP is very busy trying to bury it.

[Raster]

12. The bain of his existence.

all apologies.

[hifiguy]

13. Prepare for hurricane-force spinning

with a downpour of bullshit to follow.

[madamesilverspurs]

14. Prescripted mumblings?

i.e.

Q: Mr. Romney, how do you explain the discrepancy between . . .

Romney: Well, uh, he promised to make things better but he's only made them worse.

Q: Um, again, how do you explain the discrepancy between 1999 and 2002?

Romney: I believe in America. Would you like me to sing for you?

Q: Did you lie to the SEC about your tenure at Bain?

Romney: My sons' work on my campaign is the same as military service.


etc., etc, etc. . . .

[Arkana]

18. I lost it at "Would you like me to sing for you?"

[randome]

20. How true to life!

[treestar]

27. Give that madame a prize!

She has got it!

[uponit7771]

31. +1!

[Douglas Carpenter]

15. it certainly has them riddled - but I suspect that most of the msm will have Romney's back

It will be up to the campaign and all of us to get the message out. I hope I'm wrong on this. But having seen so many times scandals that should sunk a presidency or doom a candidate get buried - that is what I have come to expect. But hopefully, I am wrong.

[laruemtt]

17. unfortunately, i have to agree. n/t

[kentuck]

19. I hope the media does it job.

They may not get another shot.

[Douglas Carpenter]

21. and I hope we all get ponies and trees that grow candy

[Scootaloo]

24. Well, one of those can come true

INCOMING!

[Scuba]

22. Five cents sez he makes a canned speech and refuses to take questions.

[Scootaloo]

23. I'm envisioning a reprise of Palin v. Couric

Someone get a mop, Mittens is going to leave puddles.

[just1voice]

25. You mean a lying puke is going on MSMedia whore shows to lie some more?

How's today any different than any other day?

[Happyhippychick]

26. I think Mitt has soiled his special underwear.

[warrior1]

28. he's going to be ripped apart

can't wait!

[Ruby the Liberal]

33. Not by the networks, but you just know

he won't be able to tell the same story the same way 5x (all are being taped this afternoon).

The flip-flops after the fact will be priceless.

[spanone]

29. add faux and cnn to the list

[AlinPA]

30. The media will stop talking about Baingate when they get a VP candidate. Either Rubio or Rice

will jerk them to an obsession with coverage.

[uponit7771]

32. He'll fake pick a VP and dump them before the convention

[AlinPA]

34. Could happen. The media controls it all.
