BWHAHAHAHA: Daily Mail Political Editor James Chapman - ‘WORSE THAN SARAH PALIN’ ‘TOTAL CAR CRASH'

[Segami]

The British reaction to Mitt Romney has gone from openness, to skepticism, to mocking, to concluding that Mitt Romney is worse than Sarah Palin.



Daily Mail Political Editor James Chapman has been providing the world a play by play of Romney’s British implosion via his Twitter account. Romney started things off by criticizing London’s preparedness for the Olympics. He then forgot the name of British Labour Leader Ed Miliband, and then he admitted that he had been given a secret briefing by MI6. This led the British to ask aloud if they have another George W. Bush on their hands, “Romney blunders again by revealing he’s had (supposedly) top secret briefing by John Sawers, MI6 boss. Do we have a new Dubya on our hands?”



After his visit to Whitehall, Chapman offered two of the kinder reviews of Mitt Romney, “Serious dismay in Whitehall at Romney debut. ‘Worse than Sarah Palin.’ ‘Total car crash’. Two of the kinder verdicts.” Chapman also reported another verdict from British meet and greet with Mitt, “Another verdict from one Romney meeting: ‘Apparently devoid of charm, warmth, humour or sincerity’” Getting compared to Sarah Palin is one thing, but being called worse than Palin is an indication of the epic display of fail that Romney is putting on in London.



If you thought things couldn’t possibly get worse for Mitt Romney, you were wrong. How does one top being unfavorably compared to Sarah Palin? If you’re Mitt Romney, you get mocked in front of 60,000 people.

1. OMG that has GOT to be embarassing

To say Caribou Barbie is less embarassing than you are.

I'd run and hide if that was me!

[Segami]

2. Talk about scraping the bottom of the barrel!

[LynneSin]

35. That isn't even scraping the bottom of the barrel

That's removing the barrel and then digging 200 feet below it

[Aerows]

25. At least

Caribou Barbie knows what a damn donut is. You know you are horrible when people make comparisons where you are less favorable than Palin.

[TheCowsCameHome]

3. And on top of that, he's severely out of his mind.

Oh, this is beautiful.

World, meet Mr. Businessman.

[Segami]

4. Businessman?? You mean as in ' Mind Your Own Business MAN!!'..LOL!

[nolabear]

5. So they agree with John McCain then. Hoo Boy. He's gonna have bus tracks on his face.

[KurtNYC]

55. +1 -- they reached the same conclusion

and WITHOUT seeing his tax returns.

[FSogol]

6. Mitt Romney: "Apparently devoid of charm, warmth, humour or sincerity" 2012

[Segami]

8. Maybe he needs to be oiled...LOL!

[lastlib]

33. Hard Reset-----(PAPER CLIP!!!)

[KurtNYC]

56. That is so much better than calling him "stupid"

‘Apparently devoid of charm, warmth, humour or sincerity’”

[FSogol]

57. Someone photoshop that onto a Romney campaign poster.

Mitt Romney 2012
Apparently devoid of charm, warmth, humour or sincerity

[bluescribbler]

67. He forgot candor

Apparently devoid of charm, warmth, humour or sincerity

[Cali_Democrat]

7. John McCain was right

Sarah Palin is a better candidate than Mitt Romney

[uponit7771]

10. +1

[Blue Owl]

9. Anyone else gettin' a hankerin' for some London Broil?

n/t

[caseymoz]

16. To be renamed Liberty Broil by Repubs.

[JBoy]

17. Bubble and Squeak.

[nadinbrzezinski]

38. Actually tonight, now that you mention it

With rice though, instead of potatoes.

[loyalsister]

11. Who\where are his handlers????

Even Bush didn't make mistakes like this! Is he just a sacrificial lamb? If there was a money payout in it for him, I wouldn't doubt it.

[Inuca]

12. Mitt Romney visits London while stumbling on almost every front (Guardian)

The comparisons with Romney's trip to Europe and Obama's visit at almost exactly the same stage in the electoral cycle four years ago are almost too embarrassing to mention. Obama wooed a quarter of a million people in Berlin while Romney was mocked by the British prime minister.

No comments necessary, right? I still felt the need to bold that last sentence, though, it's just TOO GOOD.

[Segami]

13. I love the ' bold ' sentence. Isn't it the truth!

[DallasNE]

26. Remember Alexrod Advised The Media

To compare and contrast Obama's tour of Europe in 2008 to Romney's tour now. Alexrod knew Romney wasn't up to the task or he would not have put down the challenge. And it had to be plainly obvious what the result would be. Even savvy advisors cannot make a silk purse out of a sow's ear and Romney is just the latest proof of that.

[ajk2821]

60. Correct me if I am wrong

And my memory isn't what it used to be, but didn't Fox News and their ilk make fun of then candidate Obama for his successful trip to Europe. The mention of the crowd in Germany seems to be part of a memory of Fox and such saying Obama was too liberal and that is why the Germans liked him.

Maybe I am wrong.

[Inuca]

63. You are not wrong

and Fox was not alone. The Paris Hilton ad, remember (those were the days...)?

Welcome to DU, fun place to hang around..

[lpbk2713]

14. Mittens has now officially hit rock bottom.

Might as well cancel that Tampa gig. It will be a colossal waste of time and money.


Just like Dandy Don said ...



Turn out the lights, the party's over.

[awoke_in_2003]

24. I miss that MNF lineup. nt

[hifiguy]

15. As my ol' dad would have said,

"Now there's a pair to draw to, son."

[panader0]

18. And to think that this is just the beginning of his trip..........

[Segami]

19. Wait till he insults the Polish people.

[Botany]

20. Not since World War II has London seen a bombing as thorough as Mitt Romney’s.

OMG Americans: This Mitt person is some sort of American Borat, right? #romneyshambles

[awoke_in_2003]

22. DUzy alert. nt

[Octafish]

39. ''American Borat''

LOLOLOLOL!!!!!!

[Tarheel_Dem]

40. !!!

[awoke_in_2003]

21. In 2008...

I thought republicans purposely threw the election by picking Sarah, knowing the financial chickens that were coming home to roost. Maybe I gave them too much credit- they are just stupid.

[DallasNE]

23. "Do We Have A New Dubya"

Well, both are legacies so the short answer is yes. But this time with the gracelessness and character of Nixon.

[1monster]

59. Nixon always behaved well abroad. Remember, he, an ardent anti-communist,

wooed Communist China into opening up to the world after thirty years of being a closed society.

Can you imagine Mitt ... no, it's so ridiculous a speculation, I can't even figure out how to phrase it.

[DallasNE]

64. There Was Also The Undiplomatic "Kitchen Debate"

Nixon had in Moscow. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitchen_Debate

[w8liftinglady]

27. hehe..i just posted link on DMN

[TNLib]

28. How do you screw up a trip to London?

for the Olympics no less. WTF?

[riverwalker]

29. He really said "Mr. Leader" OMG

Thats like saying Mrs. Teacher-Lady, Mr. Fireman.... if you're 6 years old.

"Another Romney triumph as he forgets Ed Miliband's name: 'Like you, Mr Leader, I look forward to our conversation here this morning'."

[lunasun]

49. very Palin like IMO doncha think??

[valerief]

30. Rmoney is having A Fuggy Day in London Town.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

31. Romney had a real car crash when he was in Europe before

He was behind the wheel of a Citroen DS in France and was involved in an accident that killed his passenger. And the Citroen was one of the safest cars of its era designed to withstand a high impact, with an engine designed to slide under the passengers in case of a head-on collision.

Now, it looks like Mitt has had another.

[sofa king]

47. Wow, the Daily Mail is aiming low, then.

I'd forgotten about that incident, but Chapman had to know when he sent that out.

Romney must have really pissed them off!

[lunasun]

50. I did not know that!

[DCBob]

32. LOL!!

That's about the worse insult any politician could receive.

[Brainstormy]

34. The back end of a dressage horse is still a horse's ass

Romeny is saving the Obama campaign a fortune! It doesn't get better than this! Romney dissing the city's readiness for the Olympics, and the PM biting back. The clumsy remarks about the healthcare system--of which the Brits are inordinately proud. The mayor of London leading a rally with Obama's "Yes We Can" chant from 2008. Bloggers and journalists writing about his complete lack of sensitivity. How lucky can we get? My grandmother is proven right yet again. Money can't buy class.

[xtraxritical]

66. Is any of Mitt's stupid getting coverage on the national evening news programs?

Or Fox news? If not the general public will not know anything about it.

[riverbendviewgal]

36. funny, though no mention in CNN

I wonder if the American media will be printing these.....I love the twitter one.


It is so hilarious. One person compared him to Mr. Bean...or another W.

[riverwalker]

37. Britains demand he self deport immediately n/t

[Rozlee]

43. *

[Tarheel_Dem]

41. Sounds like they're ready to kick his "Anglo-Saxon" ass out of London? But fear not, I believe....

Netanyahu's Likud Party will put on a big show for him, cause reportedly they despise Pres. Obama.

[thelordofhell]

42. Tired of being a National Disgrace

Mitt Romney goes overseas and becomes an International Disgrace

[SaveAmerica]

44. Mitt Romney is our Mr. Bean; mumble mumble stumble uh oh!

[DinahMoeHum]

45. That's British understatement for you!

[sofa king]

46. Romney's people are debating how to travel home.

They've narrowed it down to either the Hindenberg, or the Titanic.

[Segami]

48. LOL!!

[ScottLand]

52. I'm loving it!

[glowing]

53. Guess McCain was correct when he said Palin was the better running mate.. LOL

[Javaman]

54. and this coming from the daily fail. a notorious right wing British rag. nt

[Vogon_Glory]

58. I'm Curious. Is The Daily Mail A Murdoch-owned Newspaper?

I'm curious. Is the Daily Mail a Murdoch-owned newspaper? If so, that would make Mitt-sie's embarrassment even more enjoyable.

[LongTomH]

61. Mitt's handlers might spin this to his (their) advantage...

"Ya see, them Brit soshulists don't like him! That means he's a real conservative!"

As for the GOP being stupid, that party has had a pattern of electing airheads who make good figureheads (Ronnie, Dubya). The real power will be the neo-cons he'll bring into power with him. Some of those guys go right back to Nixon's White House!

[Myrina]

62. Off topic but, OMG

"‘Apparently devoid of charm, warmth, humour or sincerity’"

That's the perfect description of my boss! I need to remember that for future use!!

[Gregorian]

65. When the Daily Fail thinks you're a nut... You might just want to run and hide.
