OP's video actually made me like Mitt Romney a little more. I felt sorry for him... he's SO VERY VERY awkward. Going out and talking to people and meeting people is obviously extremely painful to him. That's the only one of his many negative characteristics that is actually not his own fault, so I don't hold it against him.

If you watch the Obama video v. the Romney one, note which one is much more heavily edited, and which contains lapses that basically everyone does all the time (if you took speech and debate in high school you'll know what I'm talking about).

People don't generally trust Romney...even Republicans...

Mitt Romney Does Not Trust You - So Why Should You Trust him.

How can you trust a guy with zero integrity that never sticks to his convictions. Amazing!

Quote:
Yet trustworthiness remains an abiding question about Romney. In a poll released on the eve of the convention, the Pew Research Center found that while impressions of Romney have improved since the primaries, “42 percent of the words volunteered by respondents are clearly negative, most commonly liar, arrogant, crook, out of touch, distrust and fake.” And the report continues: “Fewer (28 percent) offer words that are clearly positive in tone, such as honest, good, leadership, and capable.”
After Mitt Romney's speech, voters may still ask: Can we trust him? - CSMonitor.com

Had to edit...her's a much bigger thing with Romney and the just trusting Romney issue. Multi-millions have poured into Romney's campaign. Romney owes favors big time, so in essence, the question is, can you trust the people that own Romney...you don't even know who they are.
