2. No one likes her either. But the MSM will TRY so hard to make her likable...

cue the soft lighting, cue the weepy fox "news" women and men talking about how 'transcendent" her speech was (even tho it's not written BY her, but READ by her.) The MSM pretends that they don't know that Ann will NOT write the fucking speech. It's given to her with ONE purpose, try and make Mitt seem human. And the MSM will cut to women in the crowd.. misting up as Ann tells her homey stories of what a wonderful father (leaving out the sick practical jokes) and what a nice young man he was growing up (leaving out the assault on the classmate, with scissors.)

The fact that they're ASKINg this is bad. Means they're going to try and create it. They have been given their directives by the Romney campaign... "this speech is a game-changer!" and they will poll any dumbass bored enough to watch it. Therein lies the problem. If they poll people that actually watched the speech, they're going to be republicans anyway. Watch for the MSM to try and make her lovable, and responsible for any bounce Romney gets.

Frankly, she comes off as an entitled witch...

4. I lost the love for Mittens as soon as he started the lying. She isn't any better. They deserve

each other. Not even republicans like or love the Romneys. They are an embrassment to the party. However, they hate Obama so much they will vote for Mittens. Isn't that sad? You know this country is in trouble when the hate the president more then they love our country.

5. There's a reason they stopped beating that "stay at home mom" drum regarding Ann.

People were starting to really notice how *unlike* themselves Ann Romney is. When they talked about "choosing" to stay at home with the kids, women weren't saying, "I understand that". They were saying, "you had a CHOICE?".

6. We don't like her, and any great speech won't change that

She has already shown her true colors. She might give a great speech tonight, but we know who and what she really is.
