Romney sticks foot in mouth -- a two in one.

I feel sorry for anyone trying to publish a compilation of Romney gaffes, because they just keep on coming.

This time, he's trying to connect to Wisconsin voters, while reclining in a chair in Texas, by explaining what was supposed to be a humorous anecdote, regarding his father's closing of a factory in Michigan and sending those jobs to Wisconsin.  A month ago, he was in Michigan talking up about how he loves Detroit because the trees were just the right height and how his wife owns a couple of Cadillacs.

In the first case he's trying to make humor about people losing their jobs in Michigan.  In the second case he's - once again - willing to change his message to fit the audience he's addressing.

It's a foot-in-mouth twofer.
