Good ole Mitt.....flip flopping again.
Good one, but not nearly as entertaining as when Obama let the mask slip in this video:


Obama: "My Muslim Faith" - YouTube

Last time I checked.....this country was founded on religious freedom and it shouldn't matter whether Obama is Muslim or Christian.......or whether Mitt is a Mormon. Right?

Now, as to knowing which office you are running for.......

10,000+ showed up to see Romney/Ryan in BOTH NC and WI.

Biden's intimate gathering is part of the 6%.

You're right, his religion doesn't matter. The fact that he's lying about it would matter though, wouldn't you say?

Oh, I don't know. The one where Obama thought his proclaimed state of birth, Hawaii, is part of Asia, is pretty good: http://www.youtube.com/v/h9hPXHD4WH0&hl=en_US&fs=1&

And perhaps the same can be said of Mitt.

Perhaps he is planning on implementing Ryan's policies if he wins the Presidency instead of his own.

Freudian slip?

Political campaigns are long and arduous affairs. Candidates often experience sleep deprivation, and frequently visit numerous cities and states within a short period of time. Regardless of which party they belong to, it's silly to keep bringing up these kinds of gaffes within speeches. These are instances of people who simply misspoke under often-grueling circumstances.

Of more concern to me are instances in which candidates, under far less-stressful conditions, show a general lack of basic knowledge about a pertinent issue (Palin, Bachmann, Quayle) or radically embellish specific events in their lives (H. Clinton). This goes beyond "misspeaking".
