Mitt Romney is the New Sarah Palin

[MineralMan]

Today's interviews with the big three media are the perfect demonstration of that. Cape Cod Barbie...

What will he say next?

[nc4bo]

1. Mccain had it right. Rmoney's handlers better get a clue too..

He needs some serious training!

[benld74]

2. Well, they do both have that Eeyew! factor for me,,,,,

[msanthrope]

3. Cape Cod Barbie....I like that. nt

[MineralMan]

5. Have another lobster, won't you?

Oh...boy...another lobster for this gentleman, if you don't mind...

[Skittles]

4. the more people see of Mittens

the more they will realize how fucked up it is that someone as vapid as him can "earn" 250 million dollars

[MineralMan]

6. One doesn't "earn" money...how vulgar.

That implies working, for gawd's sake. One simply starts with money, and watches it grow.

Security! Please show this intruder out.

[Skittles]

7. exactly

the people who actually work and really EARN money will see what these capital vultures are all about

[randome]

8. I wonder what magazines he reads.

Or was it 'newspapers'? I forget.

[MineralMan]

10. Polo Week and

Yachting Today, I believe.

[Blanks]

20. A lot of different ones.

Obviously.

You people from the gotcha media.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

9. "My money can see Switzerland, Luxembourg, Bermuda, and the Caymans from its home"

[MineralMan]

13. Yes. And you should see his plans for

the Caribbean White House. It's just, well, splendid. Do visit after the election, won't you? And let us know when you can come skiing at our chalet in Switzerland.

[lunatica]

11. The GOP is keeping him for the same reason McCain had to keep Sarah Palin

It's too late to get rid of him without totally losing everything. They just have to make lemonade as hard as they can.

I knew and predicted a few times that Romney would just double down on his lies.

[MineralMan]

12. And it's only July, too.

At least we had to wait for the convention for Caribou Barbie.

[sandyshoes17]

23. I had a tin foil hat moment today

Just a thought. Lately the big R's aren't thrilled with him lately. They see Obama hammering him, they are putting so much money, they're actually giddy about it. Now they're starting to think he can't win, what better time to throw him overboard and put someone else up before the convention. They are sneaky enough to do this. I don't know if I believe it, but it did go through my mind. And I am tired and hungry.

14. Rmoney's Failin' Palin response

[RZM]

15. Not really. Palin's problem was that she went from anonymity to being on the ticket

Both she and her background couldn't handle the scrutiny. Mitt doesn't come out well under scrutiny, but he has been running for president for quite a few years now and is a known quantity. It's not exactly a secret that he's misleading about his past or that he changes his positions to suit the situation.

Palin was a flashy new car that people had high hopes for, but turned out to be complete lemon. Romney's a crappy Buick and it's not all that surprising that it has yet another problem.

[chknltl]

16. He can see Sarah Palin from his back window!

add voyerism to his list of things he says he didn't do.

[Courtesy Flush]

17. Didn't Jon Stewart say that?

During the GOP primaries he said that four years ago, Palin stood out as the kook in the race. Now ALL the candidates are Sarah Palin. Seriously, which one of the bunch would have been any different?

[MineralMan]

18. Sadly, I get up too early for Jon Stewart.

He might have said that, though.

[DCBob]

19. Actually Romney is "Cape Cod Ken"

Looks just like him!

[Blanks]

21. Not even close.

No gray hair on the side.

[DCBob]

24. heheh...

needs some grey for sure and a dumber smile.

[spanone]

22. what's impressive was how utterly submissive the networks were...

mitt had the entire power of america's media at the touch of his finger...

not an ill word spoken to him....

he just explained how silly we all were to be worried about this bain thingy

[senseandsensibility]

25. How about Cape Cod Ken?

It even has alliteration going for it.

[magnifisense]

26. I disagree.

I think Mitt Romney is the NEXT George W. Bush.

[madamesilverspurs]

27. But but but . . .

we're not yet done being nauseated by the old one!

28. You mean I read this whole thread...

...and there's not a single Mitt/Sarah photoshop? Imagine my disappointment!

[BumRushDaShow]

30. There are a couple out there on the net

[pinboy3niner]

32. LOL!

I liked what Leno said on his show Tuesday:

"There's now a big controversy after a liberal group made a video saying Mitt Romney is too white for black people. Too white for black people? Mitt is too white for white people."

[Dash87]

29. I've pretty much felt that, once Romney hits the debates, he will be an epic failure.

He is not a good speaker, comes with no energy, and is out of touch with the American public. He's trying to pretend to be this folksy, down-to-earth guy, but anyone with half a brain can see how fake the impression is. He's terrible at it.

Even his own party hates him. They feel like they lost already.

It's kind of like imagining one of the stuck-up executives at your company trying to convince you that they're this humble, down to earth guy, when everything about them screams "stuffy jerk."

[randome]

31. Not only is he a bad debater...

...he'll be going up against a first class debater and real-world intellectual. 'Epic failure' is right.
