Chris Matthews had a hilarious mock-clip of Romney as "The Artist," a silent screen legend successful because he LOOKS like a President from central casting, but as soon as he opens his mouth his popularity plummets. Painfully true.

    We all don't need Romney. Even though the tax rate was 15% for his fortune he knew that it really was not right. He still did was the law described which was legal by law. Everyone else was paying like the 30% or so. He cared more about money than doing the right thing. We don't need someone that will not do the right thing. It is really hard to find a good person to run for President. We still don't have one. Just a smooth talker and community organizer. Obama can smooth talk just about anyone into anything. How do you think he got where he is? Santorum I believe will be the best choice. Anyone but Obama, even Archie Bunker.

    Romney is a cynical political opportunist who will say/do anything that will get him elected. He is revolting.

        No, I meant Romney. Your reading comprehension is pretty poor. You must be a Republican, right?
