People say the Univision appearance for Willard was just a bad makeup day

But, I find it interesting he's thrown out the fact his daddy was born in Mexico then "Jokes" that it owuld help if his parents were Mexican. He wears makeup all the time he is on Fox and he doesn't look like a Boehner stand-in.

I think he really wanted to look Hispanic for the 47%-er Latinos

I think it was an effort by Gore's handlers to liven him up a bit, so he wouldn't look so stiff and unlively. He just looked orange. That was a sign that Gore had let the handlers take over too much, making his decisions for him, at least regarding appearance.

Could be the same thing with Romney.
