ABINGDON, Va. (AP) — The cheering stopped on Mitt Romney's campaign plane Friday morning.

=snip=

The euphoria ended after the morning report that the nation's unemployment rate had dropped to 7.8 percent, its lowest level in Obama's presidency. Romney and his team sat stone-faced and quiet on the flight to Virginia's coal country, taking in the good news for the country that's bad news for their political prospects.

"Romney and his team sat stone-faced and quiet..."

[Kber]

1. Not comfortable with a team rooting for more pain in America

just so they can claw their way back into power.

[anneboleyn]

19. Exactly. He's happy when Americans are suffering.

Same with Ryan.

[CreekDog]

30. Well, he sure smiled when he talked about firing Big Bird and Jim Lehrer

I guess the thought of people getting jobs makes him has a sad.

[ailsagirl]

39. He may have been smiling, but an awful lot of people were very upset/angry. Yet another gaffe!

[murielm99]

2. He sat stone-faced and quiet because

someone accidentally hit his off-switch.

[ailsagirl]

4. LOL!!

Someone had to

[JRLeft]

9. Romneybot.

[Sophiegirl]

35. Shouldn't there be three more zeros in that pic n/t

[ailsagirl]

3. Shouldn't this amazingly political reaction show people that nitt doesn't give a damn about jobs??

Lying hypocrites

[cheezmaka]

6. It should!!!

It does show us that a lot of people aren't that smart...

[WCGreen]

28. In defense of someone who I think is an ass hole in so many ways....

It doesn't matter what news comes in this close to Election Day it is filtered through how does this effect me.

Especially if you have been campaigning for ten years for the office like Mr. Romney has been.

I've been there. Not at that level, but I did run for State Senate and have worked on many, many campaigns.

That is all!

[arcane1]

5. Naturally, good news for Americans would make them feel bad

Assholes

[Qutzupalotl]

7. Coincidentally,

anything that's bad for them is good for the country, at least for the next few weeks.

[ailsagirl]

12. Leave out, "at least for the next few weeks"

They're out to dismantle our country. I don't consider them Americans-- well, in name only.

[Tcbys]

8. Robme's Policy's are bad and he should feel bad.

[MjolnirTime]

10. Romney wore black on the seventh day and sat stone-faced as his campaign burned

Obama waited for round two to put him on the boards, near the Hofstra trees, while the summertime
turned slowly into autumn.

Iiiiiiiiiiiiiidiot Wind
Blowing every time Mitt moves his teeth

He's an idiot, Bain
It's a wonder that he's still programmed to breath

[Cha]

11. It must especially piss them off because of all the Suppression they did in Congress

to Keep Americans from Getting JOBS!

I see willard still has his smirk plastered on.

[ailsagirl]

14. I dunno-- he looked more pained than smirky

Or, it's kind of an evil grin.

I'm not sure.
It's not of this earth.

[fugop]

13. I prefer to picture him ...

... kicking stuff and yelling and punching a wall. And breaking his hand. Good times, good times.

[Doctor Jack]

15. I perfer this picture of him

[ailsagirl]

40. Arghh!! Yeah--in my nightmares!

[NCLefty]

16. Photoshop not needed to portray him in the right light

[Heather MC]

17. Anyone else besides me?

disgusted that these assholes are unhappy that more people are getting back to work?

Their is something really really fucked up about a guy running for president being upset the economy is getting better

[ailsagirl]

20. YES!

Stark, irrefutable proof that all they care about is getting nitt into the WH.
Real Americans.

[Heather MC]

25. I have opened my home to a friend and her daughter

who were on the verge of being homeless.
And believe me we celebrated when the call came in that not only did they get a job but they got a raise! This man can't even celebrate the good news because it hurts him politically. What a freakin jerk, hoping people like my friend go homeless so he can attempt to win the White House

[ailsagirl]

37. I am hoping the undecideds are seeing this!

It's clear as can be: he'll do/say anything to win and that's ALL he cares about.

[NightOwwl]

24. My stomach dropped.

It shows where his true priorities lie.

All bow down to King Willard!

[LadyHawkAZ]

18. HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA gasp "job killer" HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA gasp HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA....

[Spitfire of ATJ]

21. So, did he open the window on the plane to get some air?

[Heather MC]

26. he tried some stupid intern stopped him

[Liberal_in_LA]

22. higher unemployment would have triggered fist bumping on their part

[ailsagirl]

41. Disgusting as that sounds...

you're absolutely right. I do have to say that I find it hilarious that their campaign suffered a major blow when the news came out!!

[The Wizard]

23. Seems like the Republicans

have their panties in a bunch and they're suffering from the vapors.

[NYtoBush-Drop Dead]

27. MITTWITT AND MINI MITT...

... we wont miss you.
With any luck Lyin' Ryan will lose his seat in Congress and then he can join the blohards and Murdoch criminals over at Faux.

[RedstDem]

29. unamerican

still cant wrap my head around good employment news being bad for a political party

[Cobalt-60]

31. Traitors

This whole "we rule the country or destroy it" business is open treason.
It's an act of open warfare against the american people.
As far as I'm concerned the Republican Leaders and their Owners should be placed against "the wall".
But anything that makes their sorry *sses suffer is good news.
Up yours Romney!

[TahitiNut]

33. These GOP Kochsuckers have caused more damage to this nation than al Qaeda.

By far.

[Generic Brad]

32. Now his stone face matches his stone heart

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy because a nicer guy would not be so heartless over this good news.

[Bjorn Against]

34. It says a lot that they would think lowering unemployment is a bad thing.

[Arugula Latte]

36. They WANT the people of this country to fall on harder times. It sickens me.

[ellie]

38. Too bad, so sad, go home and tell your dad.

[ailsagirl]

42. I am not familiar with his dad as a politician, but I would think he'd be at least mildly horrified

at how his son is behaving. But then, who can say?

I would bet anything his father had (at least some) integrity.
