"Things are getting very tense between the press and the Romney campaign..."

Also told a reporter from Politico to "Shove it!"

The hits just keep coming!

What's his next stop?

I can't wait!

It is a monument and memorial, if anything it is a military site. OK, there are some crosses, but it is a tomb after all. And you can see, the area is huge and there is a parking lot.

Even if they believe the tomb to be a holy site as the aide points out. Romney is in the stinking parking lot. A fine place to take a few questions from the press.

Keeping reporters off of Mitt's gaffes is in his job description, but apparently he needs someone to mind his exposure as well. You are correct, the reporters did nothing wrong.

Bad choice of words, perhaps.

what the media frenzy would be like after it happened.

Had team Obama done any of the things that team Mitt has done to date they would be down 20 points courtesy of our liberal media.

You and every other "news" agency who built Mit up and lied for him. You created him, you cover for him: you kiss his ass.

I can't believe this panel of "experts" believes Mitt has won over the Southern protestant and Northern Catholic votes as well as evangelicals. Did he really do that on this trip?

I never saw a more vacuous panel than this one (and who was the blathering moderator?)

Would the Mormons allow Obama to do a campaign gig at the SLC temple?
