First off Mitt Romney may be most stiff, more robotic man in the lights of the cameras I have ever seen. I kind of understood why GW was the guy people wanted to have a beer with at times. He probably was actually fun to party with in an Animal House kind of way.
But Mitt? Not only is he stiff but he says really stupid things. There's two categories of stupid things to say. 1. Really dumb serious things like telling the lady yesterday in LA to go home and call 211 after she explained that her home was GONE due to the floods. 2. Then theres the "joking" stupid things. This was a great article about some of the DOOZIES he has said while trying to engage and connect with audiences using humors.
"For example, there was the NASCAR race in Florida last winter where he mocked the plastic ponchos on rain-soaked fans. I like those fancy raincoats you bought, he said. Really sprung for the big bucks. Har, har.

And theres his odd outburst captured on YouTube of a line from a pop hit by the Baha Men as he smiled for an impromptu photo with a group of African-American teens: Who let the dogs out? Woof, woof!
