The other day Mitt Romney was making a speech to Cubans in Florida and made a major gaff by ending his speech with a quote by Fidel Castro. Went over like a lead balloon.
I remember back in the Vietnam era, Mitt's father, George Romney was running for presidential nomination on the Republican ticket. He went on a tour of Vietnam while the war was still raging. When he returned to the States, he complained that he had been "brainwashed" by the generals. concerning the state of the war.
He was savaged for this remark, and any chance he may have had for the nomination was ruined.
Ye shall speak the truth and the truth shall screw ye.
Like Father, like Son.
Finito
