Over here he is a joke...the guy who mocked an incredibly feelgood and well organised Olympic games.
The whole world that lady do an awful job trying to play air guitar to Queen in the closing ceremony, and we can't unsee it. I'm not sure what Romney said about the games, but it's entirely likely that that moment justified it.

The Closing Ceremony was a fetid crock of shit. Please, on behalf of my country, ignore it and pretend it never happened. Here are some words somebody wrote which sum up my feelings pretty well.
Also; two wrongs don't make a right. There were plenty of Olympic moments to be proud of, and the closing ceremony - as much as it tried - can't cancel them all out.

Here is my signature. Make of it what you will.

He said that London "wasn't prepared" for the Olympics, which I think was proven entirely wrong by the whole shebang.
Romney also provoked one of the few times I agree with David Cameron on something too, so I guess that proves that Romney is wholly evil.
I wouldn't say he's entirely considered a joke over here though, actually, he's seen as more dangerous than anything else, financial commentators are saying that Romney will be bad for the world economy in the short, medium, and long-term, which is pretty impressive. . . .
[Hint, implying that China and Germany are crooked traders that you'll take down a peg when you're president isn't good for the markets.]
I heard it on the World Service, and it was either Business Daily or Global Business but I believe they were interviewing Stephen Roach, so this is probably as good a source as any: http://www.globalpost.com/dispatch/news ... s-currency
