Charles Barkley: Mitt Romney Is 'Going Down' In November
Charles Barkley: Mitt Romney Is 'Going Down' In November
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/05/07/charles-barkley-mitt-romn_n_1492697.html
Former basketball star Charles Barkley weighed in on the presidential race during an NBA broadcast on Sunday night, saying that Democrats would "beat" presumptive Republican nominee Mitt Romney "like a drum in November."
Romney, who was at the playoff game between the Boston Celtics and the Atlanta Hawks with his wife Ann, was shown mingling with the crowd at Boston's TD Garden during a broadcast on TNT.
"We're going to beat you like a drum in November," Barkley said as the camera cut to the former Massachusetts governor. "Don't take it personally. You seem like a nice guy, but you're going down, bro."
Barkley, an analyst for TNT's NBA coverage who famously switched his allegiance from the Republican to Democratic party, is no stranger to political commentary. In December, he slammed the GOP presidential field, calling the potential nominees "idiots" who unfairly criticize President Obama.

According to the Associated Press, the Romneys and longtime friend Bob White sat about 12 rows back at mid-court.
