All breakaway LDS sect Mormon missionaries are taught at BYU's Missionary Training Center to "Answer the question that should have been asked."
Robert Millet fine tuned this standard method with which breakaway LDS sect Mormons lie to the world.
Youtube search "Millet Lying for the Lord" to see it first hand.
“answer the poignant question”
I think he means pertinent. I can’t imagine anything poignant mitt romney would be asked or answer...except maybe wasn’t he glad his dog only got sick and didn’t die on his fun family trip or something.
Great observation. He comes across as breathless and agitated during the debates. I was pondering if Mitt was not so handsome - (remembering Rick Perry’s hilarious comment - ‘that’s one good looking dude’) would he even poll at 25%????
Would be interesting to hear from some seniors with poor eyesight.
My fear is that if we get saddled with Romney he will perform poorly under the stress of dealing with 'rat perfidy. Cutting deals in boardrooms is nothing like what he will face from the 'rats, and I don't think he's equipped for it.
The worst part of all was his reply to the question about releasing his tax returns. His best answer wold have been to stuff the qustion right back at the questioner by saying he'd release them once the Illegal released all of his academic and personal records, which Rush earlier suggested Mitt do. He could have followed that up with a blistering attack on the media for its complete failure to vet the Illegal. If he'd done that, he'd have been right up there with Newt, possibly getting another standing O just like Newt did.
Agreed. Romney is terrible in these “debate” settings. He comes across as prissy. Almost like a self-satisfied little girl.
Newt has his issues, but unlike Romney he’s not going to take the crap the MSM usually dishes out to Republicans while protecting Obama...Romney will certainly lose in November...Gingrich may too...but along the way he is going to club Obama and the liberal press.
I’ll take my chances with Gingrich.
Listen to any progressive on TV, they all answer some other question and try to run the clock out.
Corporate executives are taught techniques like this for dealing with the press, angry shareholders, irate analysts, etc.
I didn't notice that technique until you pointed it out.
Mittens always looks like he is either constipated or is holding in some nasty gas.
He never looks natural and comfortable with being grilled on stage, and the media has been giving him a pass, if he gets the nod and they turn on him {like we know they will} he'll be like the fawn in the headlights.
