ColoradoPols.com - Caption This Photo, "Romney BS" Edition

Sure it does say J O B S and it is spin, but it is spin that can be avoided!

This picture has gone viral on the net, and it is not the good kind of viral. Another boneheaded move by the Romney campaign. All they has to do was put the letters next to each other and it would have been much less of a problem!
 
Looks like moving the letters would have blocked seats and/or views more significantly than they're already blocked.

As if it matters.

This kind of nonsense attempt at discrediting/shaming the campaign and/or Romney reeks of desperation, you know.

And I bet you'd say the same thing I just said if somebody posted a similar photo from the Obama camp (and you'd be right).

Maybe they're trying to go the honesty route.

No, this is extremely important and goes to show just how out of touch he is with the average Joe.

Sorry but that is a BS excuse. Those BEHIND him are the party faithful .. they are watching his freaking back.. moving the letters together would have no impact on their "view".

Nope I would not. It is a PR nightmare that can be avoided and if Obama did the same thing, then I would be after him as well.

Problem is, it is just another example in a long line of examples of incompetence in the Romney campaign and this one could easily have been avoided.

On the bright side, at least there was people there!
 
CNN has Romney within 1 in FL and 2 in VA so his message is getting out to the people he needs to hear it apparently.
 
No. Romney is falling apart. 11-6-12 FTW!!!

I can't even begin to address the idiocy of relating a opportunistic picture that inaccurately portrays the event to being out of touch with the average Joe.

In fact, it's a whole new level of idiocy I've yet to see this election cycle, so I feel congratulations are in order.

You are right. Manufacturing outrage and taking things out of context is wrong, what kind of slimy people would do such a thing? Luckily though I am the first and only person to do such a thing in this election cycle. Hopefully things will stay clean.

I will give you a hint. His first name is Mickey and his last name rhymes with house.
 
This isn't bad campaign management it's just a bad photo.

Is he on your ballot this year? Or there's an "other" option?

Pity he's managing to lose (or at least is losing) every single one of those states that he "needed to win".

I'd rather have the momentum running with me than against me as a candidate 4 weeks out of an election, but it will be what it will be.
