Joe Scarborough, known Republican and morning political chat show host of MSNBC’s Morning Joe, had a tough time yesterday sitting through the excruciatingly, awkwardly horrid Mitt Romney attempting not to be shown up by running mate, Paul Ryan, while at a recent campaign stop.
Speaking at the St. Patrick’s Day breakfast in Boston in 2005, Mitt Romney, we assume, attempts a joke describing his aspirations. Heh. Yeah, somewhere therein lies the truth.
Speaking at a fundraiser Saturday night about the emergency landing that occurred while his wife was aboard.
“When you have a fire in an aircraft, there’s no place to go, exactly, there’s no – and you can’t find any oxygen from outside the aircraft to get in the aircraft, because the windows don’t open. I don’t know why they don’t do that. It’s a real problem. So it’s very dangerous.”
What’s the best way to mute ceaseless criticism that you are the “Plutocrat’s Plutocrat”?
Doubtless, it’s not releasing your 2011 tax returns showing an effective tax rate of 14.1%, but that’s about all Mitt Romney’s got. Reportedly, the returns include $2.25M of deductions for charitable contributions and about $14.7M of total income. Continue reading
Do you know what happens during presidential campaigns? Well, there’s a winner and a loser.

In a grimy rail yard outside Ybor City, a shoeless former senator hops off a freight car with practiced ease and makes his way through abandoned cigar factories to the grimy Interstate 4 overpass. “Screw you, Mitt Romney,” he mutters over and over again. “Screw you in the face.” It is his mantra now. At the bottle-strewn, urine soaked overpass, he is greeted by an honor guard of Florida hobos in soiled SANTORUM 2016 t-shirts who escort him to the hobo camp behind the convention center, where he is speaking on Tuesday night.

Well, it’s been a tough week for Mitt Romney.
