Romney Isn't Stiff When He's Unzipped

I'm not trying to pick on Ann Romney here.  I'm really not.  It is all too easy to say something in the wrong way when you are under the pressure from the media spotlight.  Having said that, this made me laugh so hard I was pretty much crying.  From Luke Johnson at The Huffington Post:

Ann Romney, asked in an interview Monday if she has to defend her husband against charges that he is too "stiff," responded, "we better unzip him and let the real Mitt Romney out because he is not!"



"You know, it is so funny to me that that is the perception out there. Because he is funny, he is engaging, he is witty," she told Baltimore's WBAL, according to ABC News. "He is always playing jokes. When I met him as a teenager, he was the life of the party. And yet, he is also a very serious person and an accomplished person. And I think a lot of times, people see him in the debate setting."

As you might imagine, the late-night comedians had a field day.
