It's been more than three weeks since Mitt Romney answered a question from a reporter.

The Republican candidate has rarely made himself available throughout the US presidential campaign but there is no chance that position will change in the last few days.

I've regularly emailed the campaign asking for just five minutes with the former Massachusetts governor. I have a few questions I'd like to ask him. However, on the extreme rare occasions when I receive a reply - and to be honest I can't remember the last time that I did - I'm often told that his diary is full and if that should change they'll be in touch. I don't check my email every ten minutes in hope.

1. The great want to be commander in chief

Noticeably absent

2. Once election day arrives,

I bet those emails will start bouncing back as "undeliverable," and it wouldn't surprise me if the whole Romney web site goes blank...

3. Yup.

I think the most interesting post-election news about Rmoney (assuming Obama wins - seems like decent odds) will be how many businesses owed for goods and services by his campaign get totally stiffed. Many, many millions of dollars, I expect.

Job creators...

4. One of the worst campaigns ever.

It's like it's been run by an class president amateur. The McCain/Palin run was so noteworthy for it's ineptness it warranted several books and a movie.

I predict there will be more than one movie made for Romney/Ryan. Campaign staffers wanting to take their fingerprints off this debacle will openly speak after the election, and I'll bet they say the whole operation was micromanaged by the Mittster himself. I believe this because he has the ego of a man who can manage anything. From Bain to Salt Lake City Olympics, Mitt feels he's the go-to guy for success. Even worse, I bet his offspring have their hands in it as well.

Where's Ryan been anyway? I know he's doing rallies in safe states, but I haven't heard a quote from him in weeks. It's like the campaign is keeping him in the ozone.

Someday you'll hear someone watching football who will yell at the quarterback not to pull a romney.

5. I have a bad feeling

about all of the reticence that they are showing, it's like they don't care and are convinced they are going to win. Perhaps they know the election is rigged, especially in Colorado and Ohio.

6. Just look at Romneys face. He knows it is over.

Ann is not with him until Monday. If they were winning she would be front and center she was the person who encouraged him to make this run.

7. kamikaze (divine wind) please!

KAMAKAZE JANAIYO! (not Kamakaze)
Kamikaze were honorable men... MITT doesn't come close to the word HONORABLE!
