The chant that failed

 double face palm

Last night, David Letterman showed a part of the following clip: click here. This was on the internet the morning (Wednesday) it was broadcast on cable television. It made internet sites, and chatters there on commented; and some with sharp eyes.

As the tape says, it was outside Dayton, Ohio (Vandalia). There are several interesting things to catch.  Mittens is wearing a red jacket, he doesn't do that often. There is some lettering, Daytona. If i were to guess, the jacket is probably related to a car race in Florida. Good God, the man had the best education (in expensive privileged schools that anyone could afford); and he can not tell the difference between western Ohio, and the Atlantic shore of Florida. His Ohio senator, Portman is wearing a Cincinnati Reds jacket. The other fellow, might be the masculine senator from Kentucky.

Now look at Mittens' verbal behavior. Normally, when referring to a man by a personal pronoun, one chooses the masculine gender (he, him). Listen to Mittens, he objectifies his partner. Ryan becomes an 'it'. The camera does not pan the crowd, because it is not big enough to be more than a huddle. Willard tries to appropriate the chant, so that it is him they are cheering for. He, and it fails.

Here's the big thing: Romney is such a jerk, that he is jealous of the attention Ryan was getting from the crowd. Romney is a self-entitled character. Typical sociopathic ass behaviour from a 'CEO'. He cannot share attention, credit, adulation with anyone. Pity anyone who had, or has to work for this prick. The crowd did not follow..mumble...mumble.

Joe Scarborough hated President Clinton when he was a congressman.He was one of Gingrich's lieutenants. He left Congress (5 September 2001) after a dead intern was found in his office on 20 July 2001. Since April 2003, he has been on MSNBC (considered a liberal cable station). The main part of the clip is the face palm. Letterman stopped at that point. But the funny stuff was thereafter. A Southern Baptist Republican trying to remember a Catholic prayer as his party's nominees have lost. His co-host, Mika Brzezinski, both feels his discomfort, and needles him. Ed Rendell (former Democratic governor Penn.) is grinning, and the other two guys look uncomfortable. No, a botched Hail Mary is not going to save Romney. I need to go to the store and get more popcorn.
