Caption this Mitt pic

LOL! I think he lost everyone's attention. Most of them are not looking at him!


US Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney speaks at a town hall meeting at Central High School in Grand Junction, Colorado, on July 10, 2012. Romney said he has 'nothing hidden' in his taxes, rebuffing accusations by President Barack Obama's campaign that he is being secretive with his wealth in offshore accounts and businesses. In an interview with Radio Iowa that aired Tuesday, the Republican presumptive nominee said his finances were legitimate and managed by a blind trust.

Real attentive crowd he has there. The guy just behind him looks as if he is bestowing some kind of blessing. Maybe he is SS?

the only people at the event. I can only assume that the guy in the red tie behind Romney is one of his staffers, he is the only person paying attention. Insert "appropriate" applause.
