I just saw a clip of that "moment" and it reminded me of how badly Romney is doing. The small group gathered where he was at had to be reminded, by him, that he was the head of the ticket ... not Ryan ... whom those in attendance were chanting for. An awkward moment. Embarassing for Willard.

Every time I read the name Willard I'm reminded of the movie about the sociopath with pet rats.

and the next day, it's "so, bob went to the rally - how'd he like it". Answer: "he thought it was great, but apparently romney behaved like a big ********".

And then they wonder where the poll numbers came from.
lol

It will be nice when we can put him behind us and let the president get back to business.

Like his father he will not be president.

True, the sooner he is a historical footnote the better. He's wasted enough of the country's time with his tripe.

Good God. As usual, you completely missed the point of this thread, didn't you! Good God!

Lightbulb In Ohio, Romney corrects crowds cheer: "That's ROMNEY/Ryan..."

I liked Joe Scarborough's reaction on national TV yesterday:

Face in hands, he moans, "Oh sweet Jesus! No!"

Sums it up pretty nicely.

Poor Willard. He truly does not get it. And he can't keep from pointing that fact out to us on a regular basis.

Don't you left wingers ever get tired of looking stupid?

Don't you ever get tired of how the media creates stories?

From the lips of someone who was there: Romney encouraged the crowd to cheer Ryan's name because it was Ryan's turn to speak.

The media (NBC) simply selectively made up the story and edited it to suit themselves.

Lord, it must get old being dumb.
