Romney's Concession speech: He's not very good at gracious or humble.

I am so looking forward to this moment. If President Obama wins decisively, Romney will have to deliver a concession speech and he'll have to pretend to be supportive of the President and talk about moving forward, blah, blah blah, but I'm betting his humiliation, chagrin and anger shine through whatever speech he makes.

I want to see this repulsive, soulless, lying shell of human admit he's defeated and rejected.

Granted, it's not that large of a city but still that's quite a feat.

And his Mormonism . He should be happy in defeat. Imagine the headaches , he'd have with his so called blind trust as president. that is unless, the IRS as a private citizen gives him migraines. In defeat , he can go back to making money and cremating jobs.

WilLIARd Rmoney is a pathological LIAR who hides behind his church to evade taxes and hides his money overseas to cheat his own government. Morality my ass.

Morality of his ilk is just a pretentious facade. but, suckers in lots of people. And keeps his church elders rolling in the dough.

He knew he never had any chance of winning this thing. He is elated and shocked he did as good as he did.

I think President Obama will win decisively, but I do not believe Willard will be capable of being gracious in defeat. There is nothing in his personal make-up that indicates he has this ability. Thus, I look forward to his brat-attack melt-down.

every other candidate produced their tax returns. No other candidates previously interrupted debate moderators. Other candidates who lost in the past thought they had to be supportive, but Rmoney will not. It may be one of the most ungracious concessions - no, on second thought it will be the most ungracious one in history.
