I am surprised he didn't start screaming and lose it... but Bill did lose it... and will never get it.

He never ceases to amaze me.
It is quite obvious what Romney was about at the NAACP from his follow up comments in Montana I think the very next day.
What makes me wonder is this: Romney already has the racist vote why would he need to go further and use this tactic? Was he following direction from his handlers? Did they say, "we can use this. Say this tomorrow".
Ultimately I think Bill is just doing damage control here because what Romney did in Montana was at the very least race-bating.

“If they want more stuff from the government, tell them to go vote for the other guy-more free stuff. But don’t forget nothing is really free.” -Romney, at a fundraiser in Montana.

Wow, thanks Mitt. You are my guest today but tomorrow you will rip on me to your base. Nice guy.

cut the the other person off. The only difference for Bill is being on the tube and not being able to flip a switch to make it seem like the other person hung up and quit. Bill was trying to bait Shelton from page one with "Obamacare" over and over again.

Really, Bill? It sure sounded like it.

But then, you're the one who brought us palm tress in Wisconsin...
