I've decided that Romney is the 'Larry Tate' of the GOP candidates
You remember Larry Tate of "Bewitched" the guy who always grobbled to get the million dollar account, changing his mind constantly to suit his client. The guy who fired Darrin at least 20 times during the show's run because he thought the 'presentation' was bad only to be overruled by the client. Here is a typical exchange:

Tate: Darrin, that's a terrible idea--you've lost it boy. You're fired.
Client: Shut up Tate! I love it!
Tate: Like I said, Darrin--you're on a row,boy--we love it!

Yep, just like Willard (Mittens) Romney

2. I'd say, Colonel Klink, except for the hair.

5. Aha! Or Alan Partridge (of Knowing Me, Knowing You) without the faux charm.
