"Mitt Romney hasn't given a national television interview since sitting down with Wolf Blitzer on CNN 23 days ago. He has not answered a single question from the press in 22 days. Among the requests that he has turned down, Romney has refused to answer questions from children on Nickelodeon. He has refused to be interviewed and take the questions of young voters on MTV. Romney was so terrified of The View that he canceled and sent his wife in his place. He has turned down David Letterman, and every major news network including Fox News. Bill O'Reilly has been screaming at the top of his lungs trying to get an interview with Romney before election day, but the Romney campaign made it clear on October 23 that they were scheduling no more interviews. However, this ban has also extended to the members of the press who are covering Romney everyday. The pool reporters covering Romney ask questions each day, and the candidate pretends that he doesn't hear them. This has gone on for the last 22 days."

How does that saying go? Oh yeah: "Better to be thought a fool for silence, than to speak and remove all doubt."

What a lame, pathetic, attempt to make Romney look bad!

BO avoids questions and the media on a regular basis.....except The View and Entertainment Tonight where he knows he won't get questioned on anything other than his favorite color.

Has anyone noticed the HUGE Gormless smile on Romney's face when he is ducking questions?
He looks like a baby when they pass wind.

That is the most intelligent thing he has done. He can't help himself, when he opens his mouth lies flow out.

You are suggesting that instead of talking to the people he hopes to represent, he should go talk to David Letterman or the gas bags on the View, like Obama?
I wouldn't if I were him either.

His arrogance doesn't surprise me but the fact that conservatives on here who bashed Obama for the same thing are now embracing Romney for it.

Why bother?

Just assume that Mitt's point of view is "whatever your audience would most like to hear, no matter I said before" and that's the interview done right there.
