A trail of diplomatic blunders has damaged Mr Romney’s stature on a tour that was designed to showcase his foreign policy credentials ahead of November’s US presidential election.

As for Romney's press aide, telling journalists to "shove it" and "kiss my ass" isn't going to endear your boss to the rest of us. Really, it won't.

On the other hand, I can't see most independent voters being terribly pleased with this. Then again, I can't see most independent voters paying enough attention to even be aware of this.

Shouldn't they wait at least until after the convention to melt down?

"Kiss my ass. This is a holy site for the Polish people,” he said. “Show some respect."

Said with all irony completely and totally lost, I see.
