Who agrees that Mitt Rob-me should be a comedian instead of a politician?

I have to say...if there's anyone who is an expert at making a clown of himself daily, it's this guy. He constantly gets caught in absurd lies about PBO, he flip-flops his positions like a burger patty, he is extremely gaffe-prone, and he always fails miserably when trying to take off his 1 percenter hat and put on his 99 percenter hat. In fact just a few days ago, he was at an IA donut shop and had trouble naming a DONUT, and instead called it a "um...um...uh...chocolate goodie." It's amazing that he's still polling close...but then again, what else can you expect from the same country that gave everyone * twice? But Mitt Rob-me may just give * a run for his money on the stupid scale.
BTW, here are a list of some of Mitt Rob-me's gaffes and lies if any DUer is interested:

even thank her for letting Romney use her restaurant. She doesn't realize that, to Romney, she's the "help". The 1 percenters don't say thank you to the help.

A narcissistic, aristocratic robot who assaults people with scissors and dresses up like a cop. They could call it "The Blunder Years".

7. He appears to be a comedian, but he isn't.

He has comedic timing, but he doesn't know when he has delivered the punch line. Perhaps, he could be the straight-man in a team.
