A Portrait of the Candidate as a Bit of a Jerk

Well, we kind of knew Romney was a bit of a jerk, but this is really not very nice, is it?


Punctuality mattered to Romney. Christie’s lateness bugged him. Mitt also cared about fitness and was prone to poke fun at those who didn’t. (“Oh, there’s your date for tonight,” he would say to male members of his traveling crew when they spied a chunky lady on the street.) Romney marveled at Christie’s girth, his difficulties in making his way down the narrow aisle of the campaign bus. Watching a video of Christie without his suit jacket on, Romney cackled to his aides, “Guys! Look at that!”
Really? Binders full of chunky ladies might like a word with the former presidential candidate. I will settle for "jerk".
