Current Republican Primary campaign is creating need for new position in the work place.


Wanted Interpreter for Rick Santorum

You can listen to him in context and be prepared to be outraged but left wondering what the hell is he talking about.

MSNBC just had him rambling on about 'commodotized candidates' as his response to statements about 'Satan' going against America.

Limbaugh just quoted saying, "He is going to look like a religious nut because he did say these things".

He talks about the President's "phony theology" and then explains it as having something to do about "radical environmentalism".

We need to get some qualified interpreters up to speed so that we can understand what the fuck this guy is trying to talk about in real time.

This whole process of trying to understand him gets you so spent that by the time you understand what he is saying you don't have any energy left to get angry at how really reactionary this ass is. Its just sounds like a bunch of frothy riffing by the stand-in speaker at a Kiwanis meeting.

I come from these types of people and I have no idea of what he is trying to say, even after he comes back the next day and explains it.

If you want one of these jobs as a Santorum interpreter you are going to have to move fast. This guys 15 minutes is almost up.

Oh and yeah Romney, you are losing to a guy that people cannot even understand what he is saying.

That's how bad a candidate you are.

expected to deliver bad news as well as good news to the candidate.

He neve gets better on the stump, in fact he is commenting about tree levels and singing America the Beautiful.

Who ever is in charge of candidate presentation isn't doing their job, maybe Romney is so arrogant he never hired someone to do the job.

i suspect that deep down he believes he is the anointed so you probably nailed it when you suggest that he might never have even considered hiring a handler.
it is self-evident that no one could best the anointed.
