The GOP - The 'walkback' Party

Let's see, we've got...

Romney making a birther statement about Obama... It was 'just a joke'.
Todd Akin talking about "legitimate rape"... it was "off-the-cuff" and gotcha politics.
The Republican National Convention... so full of baloney that even Fox News called them out on it
A guy yelling at an empty chair... Even Republicans are running away from it
And Paul Ryan who apparently did not finish a marathon in the time he stated... and he has since taken it back

So basically, pretty much everything Republicans have said for the past couple of weeks, it was either all a 'joke' or everyone and their brother can see through it.

There was something George W. Bush said about getting fooled again, I think it would be very apt here.
