Romney is stupid to make a foreign policy speech...

[Drunken Irishman]

It makes absolutely no sense going away from the issue he polls best with and focusing on the issue he consistently trails Obama with. It's just bad politics. You've got only a handful of days left to decide the outcome of the election and giving a foreign policy speech is going to leave many Americans rolling their eyes and thinking, "uh, what's his economic plan?"

But I welcome it. The less we're talking economy, the more trouble Romney is going to find himself in these next few weeks. But I've seriously got to question his handlers. Really, whoever came up with this idea should be fired.

1. Does it somehow set the stage

For the foreign policy debate?

2. Agreed . . .

out of all the issues to focus on, this is the one that he just can't win. The POTUS has done such an excellent job on foreign policy! This is yet another serious misstep for the MittWit campaign.

3. His handlers won't be the only ones getting fired...

He will join them in November, on the sixth.

4. Well, for someone who used the prime time of his convention...

...for a stand-up comedy routine,* this would be par for the coarse.

*And I use the word "comedy" lightly.

5. I just hope

that he doesn't cause an international incident- or tries to impersonate a President.

6. He's trying to do anything possible

to change the conversation away from his 47% remarks. As if voters are going to forget....
