..about his mental health. She must have her reasons for saying that.

Was this just a random throw-away comment or was there something, perhaps in her subconscious, that is concerned?

He has been running a long time. It must be wearing on him.

He also must see he is headed for a major spanking, and this will end his career (and relevance) as a politician.

For a guy who has always had everything handed to him without questions, this is a whole new set of emotions. I bet he has been showing some new sides to Ann lately.

Remember, relationships of the rich and powerful are often no what they appear to be.

Or maybe this was transference. Maybe Ann is actually worried about HER own mental health, not Mitt's. She was in line to be queen. Dammit, she earned it. She waited her turn. This was her year. Why did I even stay with Mitt all these years if this was how it was going to end up?

...I mean who wants (another) wacked-out President. One in a century (GW) is enough.

they sure aren't going to go there.

Maybe another question or two abut Paul Ryan's P90X workout.

Ever see those before and after pictures of presidents, showing how the stresses of office inevitably age a man? We're seeing that with Willard M Romney, only it's the burdens of being the Republican nominee that are weighing on him. I have serious doubts about how well he'd hold up under actual office. His wife might've been right to worry about his mental health. Reality is pretty harsh when it's something you're not used to facing.

mittens you are so fucked.
He's taking this personal as that pictures shows and I doubt he lives much longer after he gets his ass handed to him by us 99%'ers come November 6.

He really thinks that he is destined to be our next president, sorry mitt but not this time, or any time afterwards for that matter.

Yes I'm one of the 47%'ers. I paid mine in full forty some odd years ago. Everything since then was cream on the top.

and if you look at his dozens of pages of "zingers", they all have the same phrase written over and over: "all work and no play makes Mitt a dull boy."
