Wow, look at all those trees in the background. They all look of a reasonable height. I hope Mitt approves.

Romney was at Daytona last year and said he also has been to the track in New Hampshire. Does he follow the sport?

"Not as closely as some of the most ardent fans," he said. "But I have some friends who are NASCAR team owners."

This man is the frontrunner and could potentially be running the most powerful country on the planet this time next year.

hahahaha, it's like all the Republican candidates are in a race to one up each other in unelectability.

That is totally priceless. Is the guy even trying? Did George Soros buy the entire Republican field or something?

We're being punk'd, surely.
Quote
But the crowd initially booed Mr. Romney, who occasionally struck a discordant note, as when he approached a group of fans wearing plastic ponchos. “I like those fancy raincoats you bought,” he said. “Really sprung for the big bucks.”

No. He didn't really say that. Is that from The Onion?

Haha, it is hilarious how out of touch he is.   Rather than fail at this common touch act, Mitt should really just do a heel turn like they do in wrestling.  Have Mitt act like the Million Dollar Man or Ric Flair.

Now, there's no way this is real. How out of touch can he possibly be?

Maybe he gets so mad he punches one of them (http://www.theatlanticwire.com/politics/2012/02/romney-once-punched-tree/48870/).

Do Romney supporters realize that Obama will ridicule their candidate in the General Election?
