Drudge has a blurb on his home page which says “Mitt Tears on Meet” Is that true? It doesn’t air here until 11AM ET. I wonder what they were talking about which made him tear up.

RE: Mitt on MTP

Best moment; the tears in his eyes recalling the news in '76 that Mormons had dropped their prejudice against blacks. Coupled with his civil rights history --and his father's--this exchange was as sincere as any I've ever seen from a politiciam. He said he was driving when he heard the news report, pulled off the road and wept. No acting, imho.

There was point where Mitt was talking about his Father(George I believe) and his belief and actions of treating all people as equal(his father marched with black leaders) especially those of color where he did appear to be tearing up.(it was genuine IMHO)

Another reason why Mitt just went way up the scale for me,he is the real thing nothing phony there at all.
