Will Mitt Romney Read the London Headlines + Video [Update]

British media hammer Romney on Olympic comments

LONDON–On day three of his overseas tour, Mitt Romney woke up to unfriendly headlines from the British media, who continue to trash him for telling NBC News that he found preparations for the Olympics here “disconcerting”.

“Mitt the Twit,” declared The Sun tabloid, trashing Romney as a “wannabe president.”

The Independent headlined their take on Romney’s trip, “Romneyshambles”–accusing him of not only committing a diplomatic gaffe but later “the cardinal sin of U.S. politics, flip-flopping” on his criticism.

The Daily Telegraph suggested Romney’s “Olympic gaffe” had overshadowed his trip to London.

Meanwhile, the conservative Daily Mail slammed Romney as “devoid of charm, offensive and a wazzock.”
