Obama was able to give the country a glimpse of that when he said "Please proceed, Governor."

I guess the Democratic party doesn't want to look like they're making fun of someone's religion but...come on! This is hilarious stuff he's spouting! You can tell that even HE doesn't believe it. That's why he's so defensive about it.

feels persecuted when asked to explain anything, has two entirely different personas in public and private. Mitt Romney scares the hell out of me.

But Romney is so freaky I kept expecting him to rip his human mask off.

what this arrogant asshole will be like as a President. He is so nasty and thin skinned. No wonder he makes blunders and gaffes all over the place when he travels to foreign countries. He has no class and no manners, either. I think the American people would grow very weary of this man rather quickly once they realize who & what he is. I notice a similar attitude he takes about his "knowledge" and expertise as a businessman. His attempts to shut the guy doing the interview down because he (Mitt) is the authority on Mormonism are really ugly and show a level of contempt that is frightening.

I am holding on to my last hope that he is not elected tomorrow and the predictions are supporting that point of view. Of course, I know that election shenanigans and outright fraud are all possibilities. But I also know that there is an army of people who will be out there....boots on the ground.....serving as our eyes and ears against just such a circumstance.

I saw this a few months ago and he's pacing back and forth like a caged animal and his petulant demeanor is a clear sign to me that he's the type that never likes to be called on his bullshit. He doesn't like it when "peons" question his decrees.

that guy was telling him that since he's a Mormon he should be an anti-choice extremist. I would hope any Catholic Democrat would respond the same way Mitt does.

go along with whatever he says. He's been used to having everybody kiss his ass since he was a child, and he becomes FURIOUS if someone doesn't automatically agree with him.

I'm saying this in all seriousness -- the dude has some major mental issues.

He is surrounded by mic and cameras for shit's sake AND he doesn't say anything that is off message for him.

There is no "gotcha" in that tape. Romney actually does a fair job of BS'ing about how his religion and his political career are totally separate.

I'm even more disturbed by his demeanor than the wackiness that is the Mormon religion. This guy is really a jerk.
