Key Questions:
- How would you grade Mitt's performance? His answers?
- Did Mitt dodge Jay Leno's questioning or were his answers direct and satisfying?
- Do you think the interview was fair? Were the questions "slanted" or "centered?"
- Does Mitt Romney's answers, demeanor, and everything associated with his appearance on the tonight show improve, diminish, or have no affect on your impression of him?
- Do you think this appearance will help or hurt Mitt Romney in securing the nomination? What about the presidency if he is the GOP candidate?
Please share your thoughts, grades, impressions, etc. below. Thank you.
+++ Also, we know there have been other appearances by the candidates on the Tonight Show and other interview style shows of the like. We have not been able to find many of them (the link above was given to us by a Mitt Romney supporter, thank you for that), but if you would like The Elephant in the Room to post them in an open forum like this one, please let us know. Email us at loudmouthelephant@gmail.com with any links and information +++
A + Congrats Mr. President.
ReplyDeleteI actually thought Jay was fair (though he is a little more pro GOP while Letterman is a liberal nut).
I just wish he would pick Rubio for a VP.
I actually thought he did well, coming from a Santorum guy. The only thing I didn't like was when he called Santorum "Press Secretary"
ReplyDeleteExcellent show! I'd grade Gov Romney with an 'A' because he was relaxed and himself. Jay Leno's questions really brought out the human side of Romney and the audience was very receptive. At the same time, Leno's questions brought up critical issues and allowed the Gov to talk in a relaxed manner about the issues. Because of the 'vitriolic' nature of the campaigns this was refreshing and people got a glimpse of the real Romney. It was very fair and it is great to see humor injected into an otherwise tough slog.
ReplyDeleteTruth Lover - thank you stopping by and posting your opinion! If this is your first time, welcome to The Elephant in the Room... a conservative, open-forum people's blog, and a great way to gain fact-based resources and opinions.
DeleteWe hope to see more!
It was okay. I'd say a B+
ReplyDeleteI also agree that it was fair. Mitt did a decent job of addressing each question. But am I the only one who picked out a very significant soundbite that I bet the media will grab on to. Mitt said something like "I sent my son to Guam. I sent my son to the Marianas Islands."
*You KNOW the press is just going to jump on this (thought it's just really retarded of them to do so) and say something like "well Mitt, you're out of touch. While average Americans work hard every day, we don't have that kind of money to send our sons to exotic islands."
It's pathetic, but you know they will.
Two of the biggest sleaze bags together at once !
ReplyDeleteHow? Can you enlighten us? Dropping a one-line attack offers no help, it also makes you look like an ignorant, spoiled child. Just sayin'
DeleteTo the anonymous "sleaze bags" post, you sir, got owned.
DeleteOh really ....wanna bet on it ? $10000 bet ?
Delete10000 bet? Irrelevant, and yes, one liners full of air get owned.
DeleteIt IS relevant because it's someones opinion on the topic,you may not agree. RallyCap .....you're a dick
DeleteAnonymous - I'm not sure calling RallyCap a "dick" really helps. From reading this, he/she (perhaps a little crass with "you got owned") stated that they obviously disagreed with something, and they did not get personal.
DeleteWe are all for fact-based debate... and regardless of agreement or disagreement, I don't see how personal attacks help. I would rather people beat each other with facts and truth :-)
I find Mitt generally boring no matter where he is.
ReplyDeleteIs that relevant?
DeleteAre you saying this guy's opinion is irrelevant because you don't agree ?? Typical GOP Bullshit
DeleteActually, if you look at the three simple words I typed, I asked a question. I wanted to know something so I asked. I was curious as to why he woukd think this was relevant.
ReplyDeleteAre you unnecessarily making a bigger deal out of something that was really simple in an attempt to make the GOP look bad any way you can, even though this attempt is just retarded? Typical ignorant democrat bullshit.
And I asked a question too. Let me ask another : When you say "retarded" are you talking in the religious sense or the Republican sense ....Ohhp !!!Same "retarded " Shit !Sorry bro
