Correspondents say the highlighting of Mr Romney’s alleged French-language skills is an attempt to portray him as an elitist, European-style liberal wimp.

The world’s biggest economy using the fact that a potential leadership candidate speaks another language as a negative point is quite astounding, even for right-wing Americans….

The fact John Huntsman can actually speak Mandarin, as he worked as Chinese ambassador in the Obama administration for a couple of years, basically did for him too.

I guess some believe being able to converse with the worlds new super power, who incidentally own most of your countries debt, might be a negative point for a candidate

Anyway, Romney will still win the nomination despite Newt Gingrich’s usual out of context ads.

Well at least he doesn’t believe in that silly evolution theory.

merde

Ah Newt Ginggrinch, what a lovely chap. Full of integrity and could never be accused of chasing votes..
