I listened to the interview with Tag Romney last night and I wasn't as interested in the tough guy talk about him wanting to take a swing at the President as I was in what he said about his dad and the debates. Watch the interview starting at 1:46 until about 1:54 and you'll hear what tough guy Tag accidentally says about his dad and the debates.
Tag immediately tries to walk back how 'terrified' his dad is to debate with Obama, but think back about every moment of the last 2 debates between Mitt and Obama and the looks on Romney's face. Terrified is exactly the word that describes Mitt during the debates. Even in the first debate, as bad as the President did, I was quite surprised by how damn nervous Mitt looked the entire time. Even when he's trying to go in for the kill he is terrified looking, which is why I imagine he has exactly zero gracefulness.
I didn't just write this diary to point out something interesting about Mitt. I wrote it because for all his brazen lying and tough talk, Mitt is just like ever single other bully. He's terrified. Terrified that people will challenge him. Terrified that people will hold him accountable. Terrified that people will just simply tell him to go fuck himself. On one hand he'll bully someone he thinks he can push around, but on the other hand he'll kiss everyone's ass and tell everyone what they want to hear to get what he wants from them. And he'll do it shamelessly, because he has no self respect.
Mitt is just a terrified little bully and all that is required to handle him is to stand up to him. Like the President did the other night. Mitt has a lot of money and he's good at selling bullshit, but we have the truth and the confidence that comes with it. Mitt can only win if we let him, period. Just ask his son Tag, who's just like his dad and would totally take a swing at the President if it wasn't for those guys with guns gosh darn it!
Go back and look at the pictures of Mitt. Look in his face. In his eyes. What do you see? Fear.
