Mitt probably does have a decent sense of humor (according to his family, anyway), and actually might make a half-way decent President of the United States. But based on the quality of the campaign he has run, and the gaffs and mistakes he has made, neither supposition is quite believable.
Wait till you hear the one I told in South Carolina about the guy dying in the street because he had not health care insurance.-They just laughed and laughed down there.
Regardless of you politics I think almost everyone agrees he has run a TERRIBLE campaign. Maybe not as bad as Michael Dukakis did (remember him in the tank, wearing that leather helmet?), but close to it.
You know Tig you need to start finding out what you’re talking about before you try to comment on them. The ACA doesn’t take full effect until 2014. And of course Obama never said what you claim he said making you not only ill informed but, using one of your favorites, a liar.
The entire issue of Romney’s beliefs has been completely glossed over in this campaign season. Should the POTUS be a person whose mind is rational and based on reality? Is this important? If a person came up to you on the street and told you that the underwear he was wearing was magical and protected him from evil spirits, would you judge that person to be sane or rational? If someone you met at a party started going on that he was a follower of an angel named “Moroni” would you jokingly ask him if he was referring to Bony Moroni from the old rock and roll song? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moroni_(Book_of_Mormon_prophet). If you had a coworker who revealed to you that she was going to be baptizing dead people after work, would you edge away from her or roll your eyes? http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2012/02/16/mitt-romney-on-mormon-baptisms-of-the-dead-i-haven-t-recently.html Yet these are just a few of the nutty things Romney believes in. The worst part of it is, (and this comes from friends that left the Mormon church who were inside it for many years, trying desperately to please their parents by baptizing dead people and going on missions, so it’s not something I’m making up), the worst part of it is and I quote an email from them: “And here’s the kicker. They (the voters) don’t know about this stuff – the underwear, the temple promises that the Mormon church comes first in Romney’s life. If the LDS prophet were to hear some mandate from God and tell it to the Mormon people, Romney would HAVE to obey it, even as president. That’s huge!” If you think that a President doesn’t need his feet grounded in reality and would vote for a Scientologist or a Voodoo worshipper, then go ahead, take a chance. I’m voting for the only candidate who knows that his underwear is just underwear.

Mitt obviously has a sense of humor, his entire campaign is a joke!

When Meg Whitman lost to Jerry Brown in California, there was a cartoon where Whitman was aghast that she lost and said “But I had the high bid!”
