Romney Sounded Almost Human At The Clinton Global Initiative

After President Clinton introduced him Romney thanked him and said he would be waiting for his bounce in the polls. If Romney wasn't such a douche bag I might feel sorry for him after his inevitable loss, but my sympathy would be tempered by the fact that he has hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars to fall back on...


But as it is I will be celebrating his inevitable loss like it's 1999 or my Miami Heat winning the 2011-2012 NBA Championship.

. . . didn't want to be rude and say so.

It was a Romney campaign speech. Contrast that with the President's extensive, substantive, non-political remarks on human trafficking. It's supposed to be a non-politicized gathering. Romney is a vacuous jerk.
