29. I've wondered more than once
Mon Nov 5, 2012, 08:19 PM
Nov 2012

if someone in Romney's camp set that thing up (on their own initiative or from a direct order from Romney) for the sake of "posterity." But then, if this is the case, they could have shot it from a better angle that would have left the honored guests out. Looks to be a professional job because the audio is quite clear. Also, how would an anti-Mitt person(s) gotten past all the security to position the equipment?

It would be the height of irony and karma if Mitt knew that sucker was running all the time.

for whomever did it - it stuck for months, millions of people saw it.
