Maybe he's some sort of monstrous squirrel-squid hybrid.

Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are going to speak, Mittens - are you scared of how petty, ignorant, robotic and generally fucking awful you will inevitably seem in contrast? (You should be)

It's too late, he made his statement yesterday when the news broke. He attacked the president in the most partisan terms possible and in so doing

He failed the Commander in Chief test.

Reporters who left the room after being told he canceled plans to speak are now being told to come back in after the room is re-set.

Smoooooth!
