1. My heart just bleeds

[R. Daneel Olivaw]

46. Nobody could have predicted that rats would desert a sinking ship.

[ProudProgressiveNow]

47. I am shocked I tell you... shocked...

[JB126]

2. Even she's gonna vote for Obama! Like Christie

[ItsTheMediaStupid]

3. Racist comments may outweigh party loyalty

They really shouldn't have gone after Colin Powell like they did.

[CoffeeCat]

13. Or the way they treat women!

Condo is pro choice. I'm sure she's been mortified by the pro-rape celebration that has become the Republican Party.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

4. Condi remembered she had to wash her hair and empty the litter box.

"Mitt...? Oh, yeah, that Mitt. I guess I was supposed to be at some kind of thing tonight, but I really had other things to take care of. The litter box had gotten a little ripe, and my hair was a mess, and anyhow, there was a movie on Lifetime I wanted to watch. Hope he's not too mad..."

[spooky3]

9. ah, you beat me to it!

[alcibiades_mystery]

14. ROFL

That really made me laugh!

[fleur-de-lisa]

5. Too funny!

[CoffeeCat]

6. She doesn't want to hitch her wagon...

...to a crashing meteorite.

Ann is the only codependent fool woman who would follow Mitt around the country.

[BenzoDia]

7. Maybe some Republican threw peanuts at her.

[vilify]

18. LOL @ peanuts

[spooky3]

8. She called to say she had to wash her hair.

[morningfog]

10. She saw another US city flooded and it reminded her that she needed to get some shoes

and scarfs.

[rzemanfl]

15. Beat me to it. n/t

[FarPoint]

11. I flipped the channel during a commercial

I'm in SW Ohio. Just saw Boehner, Portman, Romney and Ryan who is wearing that same red black jacket.

[WCGreen]

21. Portman...

He claims he is a moderate. To me that means he accepts all the things the Taliban does except for that beard thing...

[DemoTex]

12. In the words of Jimminy Cricket ..

I'm no fool, no siree! I want to live (politically) to be 103!

[BlueStreak]

16. Come on. I'm sure there is a perfectly sensible explanation for her absence, such as

"I don't ever want to be seen again with those asshole losers."

[2roos]

17. Hey -she's a football fan -

Probably just decided the local Friday night high school football game would be better than being the only African American in the crowd in Ohio.

[Bucky]

19. No one could have possibly foreseen that Romney's staff would screw up

...again.

[onehandle]

20. THE CHECK BOUNCED.

Condi is all about the payoff. Nothing more.

[underthematrix]

22. I think she was pissed off by the fingerpointing

around BENGHAZI thing.

[theinquisitivechad]

25. I think you nailed it.

The Romney campaign is playing fast and loose with details in a community with which she's intimately familiar. I don't think she or her contacts appreciate it.

[Lucinda]

32. +1

[Renew Deal]

23. I don't buy that she supports Romney

[txdemsftw]

24. Because even Condi

cares about her vagina.

[Cha]

26. I read mitt ignored troops and foreign policy in his "closing argument speech"..

It’s not entirely surprising that Romney had nothing to say today about veterans, the U.S. military, the war it is engaged in in Afghanistan or any other national security issue (recall he didn’t mention the troops or the war in Afghanistan in his RNC speech). He and his campaign has gone to great lengths to avoid talking foreign policy throughout the campaign. When he does, Romney sounds a lot like President Obama, at least he has since securing the Republican nomination for president. Before that though, Romney sounded more like Dick Cheney, which made sense because most of his foreign policy advisers are holdovers from from the George W. Bush administration.

[cleduc]

29. Look on the upside:

Some consistency from Mitt!!

He's dodged the troops all his life!

[Cha]

42. Damn Straight!

[WillyT]

27. Well... Rats... Do Tend To Abandon The Ship...

[nolabear]

28. Boy you can smell the flop sweat from here, can't you?

That campaign is bombing like Andrew Dice Clay at a NOW conference.

[dchill]

39. Andrew Dice Clay at a NOW conference....

Now I'm wiping coffee off my tablet. Thanks!

[ThoughtCriminal]

30. Hurricane? Emergency Shoe Shopping!

33. It looks like everyone has turned on him

Even W had to know how that Cayman Island trip would reflect on romney. Seems like there are lots of people either jumping ship or worse.

[defacto7]

37. That trip was only to

transfer hush money from Mitt's account to his own.

[loyalsister]

38. Unfortunate timing for mitt

nt

[Turborama]

45. LOL! Hush money, also known as STFU money

Nary a peep from the past NeoCON admin, and Rmoney hasn't done any interviews himself for how long?

Their silence is deafening!

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

34. Just like the movie - even the rats are turning on Willard

[wakemewhenitsover]

35. Game over.

Rats from a sinking ship. I feel much more secure about Obama winning now. Seriously.

[rbrnmw]

36. The Benghazi Crap on Faux possibly?

She defended President Obama and as arrogant and selfish as Mitt is he may have gotten mad at her but who knows

[LibGranny]

40. Hmmmmmm. . . . . maybe she's in the Cayman Isles

with Georgie Boy!

[upi402]

44. ^ agree

gak:!

[yellowcanine]

41. She was pretty upset at the politicization of the Benghazi attacks.

[Turborama]

43. Weird, more tweets than recs

How does that work?



Thanks for the OP, btw. Made me chuckle.

[JI7]

48. wouldn't it be something if she Endorsed Obama

or would that just be too mean ?

[TwilightGardener]

49. Colin Powell and Benghazi. The Mittloaf campaign

has shit on too many people, told too many lies.

[Oilwellian]

50. I was just thinking...

perhaps Condi feared another Meatloaf appearance and just couldn't chance that type of exposure.

[PD Turk]

51. I wonder

I wonder if Willard asked her to go around back and come in through the servant's entrance
