Neither does a woman wearing jewelry and clothes that cost more than most peoples cars. How tone deaf if the RNC? Michelle can get away with it cause she is black and liberal. Ann can’t. We are trying to win a very important election. It’s not fair but it is what it is. WIN then look pretty.

Since when did a husband taking care of his wife become a bad thing, Juan?

Mitt will gain the whirlwind of bringin a country back from the brink not by new thinkin,,IT thinkin, a Mars zap of knowledge.............no ...mitt will simply turn everything back on....coal, oil drillin, NASA, car sales etc and fat drippin french fries too

[penelopesire]

I haven’t gotten to watch that interview yet. I recorded it though. I want to be enthusiastic about Romney but it is hard. It’s ok though...I can vote for Paul Ryan and a beautiful new classy first lady....lol

[patriotspride]

Juan has no idea how taxing being a corporate wife can be, especially when raising a family is involved.

[Girlene]

How do you know how much her clothes and jewelry cost?

That has to be the most stupid post of the night!

Well, gee, should she have shuffled out in her house coat, old slippers and curlers in her hair? What the heck!

[RitaOK]

I think Juan is much milder privately on a personal basis and well liked, but is highly paid to deliver liberal spew. His son is Republican unless he likely switched for Obama in’08. I sympathize with the role he elects to play in order to draw a paycheck, which he sorely needed after liberal NPR roughed him up. That didn’t happen because he was too liberal, though I’ve forgotten the reason and details.

Obviously, Juan has no idea what it is like to raise 5 boys.

I had two of each, praise be to God. So, four total. Not going to say which sex was harder, for they differ in the challenges mothers face. But, 5 boys?

Thanks be that I didn’t have to deal with that. I really do not want to hear from the TV corporate idiots about what it takes to keep a bunch of kids (dealing with the chaos our current societal mess has delivered) focused on reality.

My guess is that they really don’t give a damn - and want .gov to pick up the pieces of their failures. You know, the “everyone’s kids are a mess” syndrome, and “we don’t want to be bothered with feeling responsible”, so “place the blame elsewhere” dodge.

So sad for these losers, really. Does Juan have kids? Who loves and guides them? Day-care doesn’t cut it, and the kids know it too.

[advertising guy]

she is disgustin...not cause what she looks like but what she swears she does not look like

“Well, gee, should she have shuffled out in her house coat, old slippers and curlers in her hair?”

Yup, Securityman was looking for Gladys Kravitz, but Samantha Stevens showed up and put a spell on everyone!

Hmmm, I think I said that awhile ago.

Go pick your nits somewhere else.

Please!

Speaking of tone deaf, you remind me of a song from the 1950s. It goes like this: "...dumb dumb dumb dumb doo dee wahhhhh..."

[advertising guy]

Mrs Kravitz was terminally ill in the ugly department

hit and run mary....

[RitaOK]

I thought Brit Hume shot her “the look” directly before she announced the Palin interview following the break.

Megyn is so disinterested in politics, she has been mostly relegated to asking questions to cover up her ineptitude with the subject.

She is into herself, utterly, (posing cleavage up) ) on legal questions and has not made the superb transition Greta has into all occassions in all settings.
