Everyone makes mistakes, and, for politicians, those mistakes can be the difference between victory and a loss in a campaign.  Mitt Romney, for some reason, seems to have an even larger tendency than most to flip-flop and embarrass himself in public.  The Daily Show loves to televise these very errors.  Romney has changed his abortion position (from pro-choice to pro-life) and his position on gun control (pro-control to no regulations) all to appease an increasingly Republican and conservative base.

Famed online celebrity gossip rag TMZ.com seems to have found pictures of Mitt Romney at a recent rally posing with a sign that claimed, “No to Osama, Obama, and Chelsea’s Moma” (spelling in the original poster).  There’s been little mainstream media coverage of this fluke, but how can Romney be so stupid as to pose with a woman holding that poster? Maybe some politicians are only as good as their press secretaries.
