Mitt Romney – He Really *is* a Twit

Romney was obviously a phony through and through (obvious, that is, to everyone except a large number of Republicans), but I was astonished by his sayonara speech this morning.

“WASHINGTON — Mitt Romney suspended his faltering presidential campaign on Thursday, effectively sealing the Republican presidential nomination for John McCain. “I must now stand aside, for our party and our country,” Romney told conservatives.

“”If I fight on in my campaign, all the way to the convention, I would forestall the launch of a national campaign and make it more likely that Senator Clinton or Obama would win. And in this time of war, I simply cannot let my campaign, be a part of aiding a surrender to terror,” Romney told the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington.”

So, he’s not exiting because he’s losing, but for the good of the party and the country. (Okay, pols almost always say that.) But – get this – voting Democrat is an act of “surrender to terror.” What a creep. In some ways, he’s even worse than Bush, whom I believe at least sometimes delusionally believes the crud he spouts.

Mitt almost certainly knows better but is happy not just to pander, but to pander to the insanest, lowest common denominator-est segment of conservatism

I guess all those bumper stickers were right: Mitt really is a twit.
