Wow. Romney cannot even navigate the waters of one of our closest allies.

One after another. He has blundered, gaffed and embarrassed himself. The embarrassments are his and his alone. He does not represent the US in any way.

The big takeaway is that he is wholly incapable of connecting with ANYONE. He can't do it with average Americans at home. He can't do it with average Britons. He can't even do it with British politicians, some of the closest allies the US has.

He is inept and in over his head. I shudder the think what will happen when he goes to less friendly nations.
