ABC News airs audio of Romney's "gift" comments and makes fun of him for only writing one speech

http://abcnews.go.com/WNT/video/mitt-romney-comments-president-obamas-win-2012-election-17722041

Apparently, he also said something (not recorded) the day after the election about us becoming an "entitled society."

He claims Bill Clinton told him that he (Clinton) thought he was going to win until Sandy happened. I hope that's not true but since we don't have any confirmation of Clinton saying it I will give him the benefit of the doubt.

I always thought that Romney was really a quasi-moderate who went to the right to win the GOP primary. But apparently not...now I am really relieved that he didn't win (not that I ever wanted him to, but I felt that I would be more upset about Obama losing than about Romney winning).

Dear Mitt,

I want to thank you for what you did after the election. You graciously let us know beyond any doubt that you really are the dick we suspected you were before the election.

Why because he can. I also wonder if Bill played up the Republicans so they would praise him setting up the time he could eviscerate them at the Democratic Convention. Remember how he asked Ryan to speak to him, after Ryan passed his budget ?
