Worst. Candidate. Ever: Romney Dubs Obama’s Attacks ‘Obamaloney’

Romney Dubs Obama’s Attacks ‘Obamaloney’

Mitt Romney on Tuesday defended his tax plan after President Obama said it amounted to “Romney-hood” by taking from the poor and giving to the rich, labeling the charge “Obamaloney.”

“We’ve been watching the president say a lot of things about me and my policies, and they’re just not right,” Romney told Fox News’ Carl Cameron. “If I were to coin a term it would be Obamaloney. He’s serving up a dish which is simply in contradiction of the truth, and it relates to everything from how I’m going to help the middle class to tax policy. He’s just simply saying things that are not accurate.”

Wow, not only is that supremely lame, but Mitt is out staging failed photo-ops:

There there Mitt, some people are just better with words than you are.

Better with pretty much everything in fact. But bless your heart anyway.

I guess Mitt will have to buy Google searches now, like he did Twitter followers.

That's the saddest part. Even though it was a terrible joke I still don't think HE came up with it.

"Gotta give credit where credit us due. Obamaloney is as good as Romneyhood. Jus sayin'"

..."Romneyhood" is relatable to a well-known and relevant character and to Mitt's tax plan. Mitt's comeback is not only lame, but it's also projection from a known liar, therefore not relatable to anything real.

Mitt is basically demonstrating why he was a bully, but now that he's met someone who can smack him down at will, he's trying to maintain the facade. It's making him look like a school-yard bully...at 65 years old.

I'd say more but Prosense has already spoken pretty well about how lame Romney's verbal construct is.
