MittWatch: Flipping Flops and Flopping Flips

Just in case former Massachusetts governor and current presidential aspirant Mitt Romney didn't understand that he had a reputation as a flip-flopper, "Meet the Press" host Tim Russert decided to use props--actual flip-flops, in fact.

While all the stats regarding Mitt Romney's sudden shift from somewhat moderate to right are serious, Russert is the real star of the exchange. Not only does he show the flip-flops to Romney, but he also feels the need to wave them around for emphasis, further proof that those pundits are just too playful for words.

Crooks and Liars, who has the exchange in all of its uncomfortable glory, even chose to run Russert flipping his flops and flopping his flips in slo-mo.
