Reminds me of one person --- NIXON!

Romney is the most awkward man since Nixon. I remember how Nixon drove me up the wall when he'd be walking with foreign leaders and he'd watch their feet to make sure they were all synchronized on the right/left thing. And if they weren't, Nixon would skip to stay in step. I'd think, "Gee dude, you're the POTUS, let them stay in step with YOU." Although the idea that he needed to be so regimented was creepy.

Romney is the same kind of creepy. Like he's not sure how to act in the REAL world.
