Greatest Romney gaffes--add your own!

I've got my top ten in this week's Phoenix, but I'm sure I've missed a few. Anyone care to add to the list?

Here's a good one to get the ball rolling: on the campaign trail in '02, as Romney waxes eloquent about the importance of the MCAS, Jon Keller asks the candidate if he knows what "MCAS" stands for. He does not.

Against nativism

Here are a few more:

1) Can you tell me how to get to Belmont from here? -- Towards the end of Mitt's failed Senate campaign, he lost his temper in Dorchester after local residents told him it was Kennedy Country. Mitt noted some of the decrepit neighborhoods and said Kennedy could keep it it.

2) If Howie Has a Problem, So Do I -- After Howie Carr discovered one of Mitt's judicial nominee's had been through a messy divorce, Mitt dropped her faster than a hot caffinated beverage. God forbid Mitt take flack from Howie Carr.

3) But do they expect their governor to show up for work once in a while? -- In a recent Herald interview, Mitt hinted he may have been more effective as a governor in Michigan because his politics matched more closely with that state.

4) We won't stereotype if you don't - Just last month, Mitt opened his remarks at the St. Patrick's Day breakfast by referring to the crowd as "a bunch of alcoholics."
