Mitt just isn't a nice person

[WI_DEM]

(as if we didn't already know that):

Another nugget about Mitt Romney's vice presidential selection process from the latest installment of Mark Halperin and John Heilemann's "Game Change" franchise, excerpted over the weekend in TIME:

Punctuality mattered to Romney. Christie’s lateness bugged him. Mitt also cared about fitness and was prone to poke fun at those who didn’t. (“Oh, there’s your date for tonight,” he would say to male members of his traveling crew when they spied a chunky lady on the street.) Romney marveled at Christie’s girth, his difficulties in making his way down the narrow aisle of the campaign bus. Watching a video of Christie without his suit jacket on, Romney cackled to his aides, “Guys! Look at that!”
According to Halperin and Heilemann, Romney's decision to pass over Christie—who was given the code name "Pufferfish" by the campaign—went beyond childish giggling, however.

1. Once a bully, always a bully.

Cutting that gay kid's long hair and poking fun at fat people? Yeah, that's a guy I want representing me on the world stage. What's he going to do next, mock Angela Merkel's haircut?

4. And don't forget Seamus! n/t

2. Wow, still a schoolyard bully....after all these years!!!! nt

3. Mitt the Shit,

still sophomoric after all these years.

[NightWatcher]

5. no shit, that's why more voted for the other guy

[Skidmore]

6. Romney has the social skills of a slug.

MSNBC just showed him kind of sucking up to Christie by suggesting him as an acceptable candidate for 2016. The man is tone deaf and clueless. He needs to just go away.

7. Mit is, was, and always will be

an entitled asshole. He just can't help himself. He is nothing like his father.

[gopiscrap]

8. willard is a fucking asshole

who never had to struggle a day in his life!

[jmowreader]

9. The real reason Romney didn't want Christie...

...is he didn't want a bigger asshole than himself on the ticket.

But seriously, Christie's corruption would have brought investigators out. As they say, where there's smoke there's fire; if the man Romney chose is this bad, how corrupt is Romney? A little real journalism would have revealed Romney's role in collapsing the economy.

11. what a stain....

doesn't this stuff just really show how vile people like that are? sickening... the "where'd you buy these cookies, 7-11?" to that supporter showed how petty he could be directly to people, but these behind the scenes things, really show the person! like the 47% comment!

14. Is he 16 or 66?

Part of growing up is learning not to reveal everything you're thinking (especially mean things).

15. While I have some issues with the current Administration...

...it just takes one look at Money Boo Boo to think "Ho-lee-SHIT, did we ever dodge a bullet!"

[Aerows]

16. DUzy

"Money Boo Boo" hilarious!

[Lizzie Poppet]

17. Sadly, not my original.

I can't remember where I first heard it, but I suspect I sprayed my monitor with coffee...

[Aerows]

18. Worth repeating

I nearly did my monitor in!

19. Prob partially from his upbringing and teachings...exclusivity is part and parcel of both...

Best thing we did was kick him in the rear…

Why he keeps showing up and opening his mouth is a wonder.
