"We've had, if you will, the first inning of a game that has, let's say, 50 innings in it."

1. Romney's favorite phrase: "If you will"--makes him sound too patrician.

Might want to work on that, Mittens--eat some pork rinds or get a NASCAR cap.

2. I picked up on that too. I bet it's a nervous tick.

Everyone has 'em. It's better, though, than, "ya' know?"

4. Yep--it's the highly educated, well-bred "ya know".

5. Or tie your dog to the top of your truck

oh, right, been there, done that. :P

6. Bwah! That IS a surprisingly redneck move from Mittens, isn't it?

3. I thought he was competing for a "Gold Metal"

7. Can anyone forget his comment on the Bhutto assassination?

"This points out again the extraordinary reality of global, violent, radical Jihadism. We don’t know who is responsible for this attack, but there's no question but that the violence that we see throughout the world is violence which is not limited to Iraq and Afghanistan, but is more global in nature."
