If only he were just some awkward dumbass in a movie, instead of the sleazy meat-waste trying to take over our country so he can pawn it off at a profit.

"Paul Ryan is quite a guy isn't he?" (The crowd started to chant Ryan's name..."Ryan, Ryan...&quot . To which Romney said, "Now wait a minute, its's Romney, Ryan, Romney Ryan, Romney, Ryan...That's it.."

The thing is only one person, if any, joined him in the Romney/Ryan chant. It was truly pathetic.

"Ryan" chant into a positive thing - saying something like "Yes, Paul's great, he's going to be a great VP" and then just keep talking.

But his massive ego and/or insecurity forced him to make a fool of himself. Honestly, I don't ever remember any candidate trying to lead a chant of their own freaking name. And failing miserably.

Love the insecurity. He must have been asking himself, 'Why the heck aren't they chanting my name?"
