"In the Battle of the Spouses, Romney's Up, But Obama Leads

Fifty-two percent of Americans in a new ABC News/Washington Post poll see Ann Romney favorably, vs. 69 percent for Michelle Obama, a 17-point edge for the first lady. Still, favorable views of Romney have gained 12 points since April, while views of Obama are unchanged."

but when I heard she was going to be co-host, I didn't watch it. I wouldn't have been able to stand looking at her.

4. For nearly HALF of American to have an unfavorable view of Ann Romney...

...is really a bad number.

Ann Romney has held no office, nor has she done anything of importance (unless you count pretty pony prancing). No one really knew her.

Well, America got to know here---and nearly half of the country has an unfavorable view.

That's....stunning. I'd be ashamed if I was Ann Romney.

Ann Romney is a vacuous, pushy elitist who is a perfect match with her narcissistic, lying, pathetic husband.

6. What's not to love about Ann Romney?

She embodies the true schema of traditional marriage; her marriage to Willard hearkens back to when daughters were traded like commodities as a means of consolidating familial wealth. She's never worked a job in her whole life, and doesn't even do her own housework. I loved the Fox News Sunday segment on "The Romneys At Home" last August; Ann's signature dish is her "trademark buttermilk pancakes".

Yes, Ann. Bisquick® is a registered trademark.

What's not to love about the shrill harpie who snapped at Robin Roberts: "We've given you people all [the tax returns] you need to know!" Or to Radio Iowa: "Stop it! You want to try this? It's hard!"

Poor Queen Ann. Everyone's persecuting her, and she cares so much for struggling Americans (but shares Rush Limbo's beliefs that the "working poor" are actually people too lazy to work a "real job&quot . She just, really needs her weekends, guys. She needs some dressage horse therapy.

Pres. Obama being a poor sport, how she has something snarky to say every couple of days. Whereas Michelle doesn't say squat about them (that I have seen anyway) FLOTUS comes out and does her stump speech (remarkably well IMO) and that's it. Ann doesn't do stump speeches (that I've heard) just fox interviews and snark. I wonder why people like Mrs. O better?

While Ann Romney is fake. I am shocked her favorability is so high. I'm going on the record that she will be running the country, not Mitt. She herself has said that Mitt can't do well without her. She has raised six boys not five. She is snarky, condescending, and feels she is above all else.

I still say it's a mormon thing, and being rich only makes her snootier.

as an ex-mormon, i can tell you that mormons believe they are entitled to a greater
place in heaven than non-mormons. infact, mormons believe that only mormons
are allowed to live with their families in heaven because all families who wish to
be together in heaven MUST be "sealed" in a mormon temple. obviously, one has
to be a mormon to go to a mormon temple for a ceremony. also, not just any
mormon can participate in temple ceremonies. only members "in good standing"
are allowed in. "good standing" means you don't question mormon leaders
and you pay your money to their "church" regularly via tithing (basically, it's
a 10% tax to get into mormon heaven).

anyway, ann knows that most of the people she encounters everyday outside her family
is not going to mormon heaven and therefore, not really "worthy" of her respect.
