Is it just me or does mitten seem like he would rather be doing anything but running for POTUS? [View all]

He can't even get off a snarky ass soundbite about Pres Obama without looking down at his notes.
NO real emotion or passion in ANY part of his speech...he might as well be reading names out of a phonebook.

Is it because he knows that with the backing of the GOP establishment, it doesn't really matter if the repuke voters around the country like him or not..tough shit.

Might as well put a huge cardboard cut out of him on stage.
