Romneyisms
Found these quotes in a long-but-funny article in the Buffalo Beast, in which two of their pranksters romp through Manchester, NH during the primary mayhem there. These quotations are attributed to Mitt Romney during a campaign event:

“I’ve seen how change can change an industry.”

“We’re working with the Sunni to help us get rid of Iraq.”

“The Muslim world reject the violence directed against the civilized world.”


As the article states, "They looked around at the army of press assembled, but no one seemed particularly interested in writing any of it down. Certainly none of those quotes appeared in any press accounts of the event." Why aren't the MSM reporting gaffes like these from Romney? Would they report them if it were another--say, Democratic--candidate?

BTW, the article is contains some hilarious stuff, including the theft of a life-sized cardboard Reagan from a National Review event, and some mild punking of MSM heavyweights, like David Gregory, Tucker Carlson, Bill Hemmer and Mike Barnicle. Also some funny pics, including the campaign buttons they made:
