85. I don't see why it's impossible to be objective here

Obviously romney's content revealed something so disgusting that he should not even be considered qualified to run for any office again. How it happened does necessarily have to be part of that equation.

A person may be unknowingly caught by surprise saying something worthy of praise. What I am comparing is the condition of being unknowingly filmed.

When you combine what romney said with the difference the comfort level he displays, and what he said obviously, it reveals something absolutely disgusting about his character. IMO it was only a matter of time.

Obama made a comment that some people found disdainful. And one with which I and many liberals happen to agree. He did it in his natural affable disposition. Some people were outraged but it was never considered a vile and venomous hate filled comment in the eyes of any reasonable person. I said "so what?" I think many, if not most people agreed.

As for what romney said, I think most people are outraged. But there is a sick minority of people who will say "so what" to romney's outing as a more arrogant hater beyond what we imagined.
