Has Romney's mental health been investigated? This quote from his wife is interesting.

(CBS News) Ann Romney's biggest concern if her husband becomes president would be his ability to maintain his "mental well-being," she said in an interview Thursday with KTVN in Reno, Nev.

Asked what her primary worry would be should her husband succeed in defeating President Obama on Nov. 6, Mrs. Romney replied, "You know, I think my biggest concern, obviously, would just be for his mental well-being."

"I have all the confidence in the world in his ability, in his decisiveness and his leadership skills, in his understanding of the economy, in his understanding of what's missing right now in the economy - you know, pieces that are missing to get this jumpstarted," she continued. "So for me I think it would just be the emotional part of it."

I suppose the fact that the Obama campaign is not using it means it has no validity.

1. If Ann is concerned, Americans should be concerned too.

Some one needs to make this go mainstream.

6. I agree. Just show her saying this - with no comment about it - just let people

decide for themselves. Most people would assume a spouse knows what they are talking about on this subject.

9. cbsnews is mainstream.

this actually is a relatively old interview (from a few weeks ago anyway, lol) so its good to see it made it to CBS.

4. I'd rather not 'suppose' Obama campaign NOT using it for a reason,

but would be a difficult thing to establish off the cuff. Would be good if someone else credible would raise it.

5. Too bad Mittwit just can't bring himself to share what those 'missing pieces' are to

'jumpstart' the economy.

7. I'm Behind Rmoney A 1000% (sarcasm) - Here's A Blast From The Past.....

Remember this:

McGovern said he would back Eagleton "1000 percent". Subsequently, McGovern consulted confidentially with preeminent psychiatrists, including Eagleton's own doctors, who advised him that a recurrence of Eagleton's depression was possible and could endanger the country should Eagleton become president. On August 1, Eagleton withdrew at McGovern's request and, after a new search by McGovern, was replaced by Kennedy in-law Sargent Shriver.

And Eagleton was only a VP Candidate.

Maybe we should be more concerned over Mrs. Rmoney's comment. Somebody should follow-up with her on this.

Oh but wait - we have Ryan as VP should anything happen. He's the guy that likes to catch catfish with his bare hands. That noodler!!!

8. As unhinged as I thought

he looked during the debate, I would be worried about his stability too.

Just what we need in the White House, 2 crackpots.
