Is Ann Romney hurting or helping Mitt's Campaign?
So Ann Romney goes on Radio Iowa and tells Mitt's critics to stop being so hard on him. Isn't that kind of ironic when her husband's campaign is more about criticizing Obama then what he intends on doing?
She has made many, maybe not bad intentioned, remarks that come off bad. She also states each speech at the end Romney looks to her for approval on if he "did good" or not. Now we all know wives do this for their husbands, tell them you should do this or you looked this way, or stumbled here. But usually that is behind closed doors.
It just does not seem to me to present a "man in charge" Presidential image. Yes wives help campaigns (or hurt them) but I do not recall one seeming so out in front or "in charge" during the campaign as Ann Romney. Even Eleanor Roosevelt and Hillary Clinton who Republicans love to blast as "running the White House" instead of their husbands were not this way during campaigns. Opinions?
David and Max this is a question about Romney not Obama

I don't know if she comes off all that bad. All that interview shows is that Ann Romney is a human being. She vented a little out of frustration. It's no big deal. The only thing that I thought sounded a bit arrogant was when she adamantly said to an interviewer that there would be no more tax returns released. But even that was miner. She's had a pretty easy time compared to Hillary Clinton. It got so bad that she had to change her name, getting rid of the 'Rodham' because it gave ladies on the right the vapors. How DARE she use both her maiden name AND her married name.

Ann Romney is a rich mans daughter just like Mitt is a rich man's son. The most arrogant people are the new found rich. I've know a few very wealthy kids that were really nice. Their families were wealthy for generations. The new rich are different. They have a better than thou attitude to those they feel are in a lower social status. Being one generation away from the working class, they are still climbing toward the top of respectability and it seems like stepping on the heads of little people helps them feel better about it.
Ann can spend the rest of her bitter days reminiscing at the country club where she will rant about how other Republicans abandoned her Mitt when he needed them most.
That is the end of this sad story. pity, pity

She is helping him because,
with all good rants there is always an element of truth. Someone has to stick up for Mitt and if his wife didn't, imagine the s%it storm the media would make out of it. Mitt has the ability to go after Obama as witnessed in the GOP primary when he destroyed Newt, and Rick Santorum. He played his cards well and won. Now hopefully he will get the Marbles to attack Obama's past history of failures.

It probably doesn't matter. Republicans will vote for any Republican and most Democrats aren't going to vote for Romney.

And you think Michelle makes Barack look like he's in charge? We all know who wears the pants in the Obama family.
