And just when you thought Mitt Romney was the only Republican presidential candidate who isn't batshit crazy
Posted by Jill | 9:14 PM
I guess he just looked sane when compared to Michele Bachmann and Rick Perry. Because what else other than batshittery explains this:
Mitt Romney yesterday praised former Vice President Dick Cheney, saying he would seek a running mate who shared many traits of longtime, and often controversial, political figure.

At a town hall meeting in a retirement community in Arizona, Romney was asked whether he would name a Tea Party person as his vice presidential nominee. He didn’t answer directly, instead saying that his “overwhelming critera” was that they be ready to become president.

“I think it was last weekend I was watching C-SPAN, and I saw Vice President Dick Cheney and he was being asked questions about a whole host of issues -- following 9/11, the affairs in various countries in the world,” Romney said, according to MSNBC . “And I listened to him speak and said whether you agree or disagree with him, this is a man of wisdom and judgment, and he could have been president of the United States.”

“That’s the kind of persona I’d like to have – a person of wisdom and judgment,” he added.

Kind of sounds like mccain saying palin was the smartest person he knew about energy concerns/needs in this country.

These republicans are idiots.
History, if we make it that far, will not judge Democrats kindly if we allow these idiots to run our country after 8 years of bush

Romney: "whether you agree or disagree with him"

If you disagree with someone, you usually don't think of the other person as a someone with "wisdom and judgement".
