Shhhh....Mitt Romney Is An Awesome Guy But Don't Tell Anyone

Let's just kept this between us ok? Whatever you do, don't tell any swing voters about this. And for God's sake, don't let the women folk know about this stuff.

[Former Romney deputy chief of staff Renee] Fry said, "From the personal side, after government, in 2008, I had a massive (noncancerous) brain tumor and nearly died. I can tell you one of the first phone calls I got was from Governor Romney."

"I was a little medicated at the time and I was telling him, it just wasn't fair. In his very reassuring voice, he said, 'Whatever I can do to help, I will be there for you,' " she said.

Lindstrom, who had young children when she served with Romney, said the governor told her: "Family comes first."

"To have a boss say, 'We'll have mistakes but they'll be our mistakes,' was very empowering," she said.

Herzfelder said: "I see this man up there that I know has this great strength, this great warmth. His actions really speak to the kind of man he is."

Gillespie recalled how Romney called her every night, for 10 straight nights, when her father was in a coma after heart surgery.

And she told one more story. The day she moved to Massachusetts, the moving company didn't get all her furniture inside the house. The governor called and asked her how things were going. She said furniture was still on the driveway.

"I'll get the boys," Romney told her.

It's great that these women are doing interviews and all but I have one question....WHERE THE HELL ARE THE DAMN ADS?

I keep hearing about all this money and the big blitz. What the hell are we waiting for?

Modesty is a commendable trait...most of the time. You don't have to be Obama and insert your imagined awesomeness into every sentence but it seems there are a few stops along the way between Mitt's let's not talk about this and Obama's narcissism.
