Mitt Romney Recalls Devastating Impact of Hurricane Sandy. On His Campaign.http://www.thedailydolt.com/2013/06/07/mitt-romney-hurricane-sandy-show-sympathy/
"SNIP......................
Seven months after losing the presidential election, Mitt Romney is starting to recognize that there is true human suffering in this world. For instance, the horrific devastation Hurricane Sandy wrought upon Mitt Romneys presidential campaign.
In a new interview with CNNs Gloria Borger, Romney says the outcome might have been different if only Hurricane Sandy had been timed a little better:
Obviously a hurricane with a week to go before the election stalled our campaign
I wish the hurricane hadnt happened when it did because it gave the President a chance to be presidential, be out showing sympathy for folks. Thats one of the advantages of incumbency.

My god. Comforting suffering people whose loved ones died is an "advantage of incumbency".

Not, I wish it didn't happen at all. Even that would have a double meaning for his campaign and the impact on people. No, he wished it didn't happen enemy it did because of his campaign.
It's just amazing to watch someone THAT out of touch.

He is truly the biggest tool who ever lived. There are no words to express his assholiness.
