Weird

Mitt and Ann Romney did what you'd expect every defeated Presidential candidate to do...

They showed up at a boxing match (those still happen?)

Mitt was the guest of the guy who organized it and was a special fan of Filipino boxer (and social conservative politician) Manny Pacquiao with this greeting:

Romney also visited with Pacquiao in his dressing room before the fight, wishing him well in the bout.

"Hello Manny. I ran for president. I lost," Romney told the fighter, according to Pacquiao publicist Fred Sternburg.
And with Mitt's special greeting, by the sixth round, so did Manny Pacquiao.

Oh, the moment the knockout occurred...


I think he made about the same face last month when Ohio was called.

Unpossible!!! All the unskewed polling had Manny winning in the 7th!

Rmoney loves professional boxing. It reminds him of when he would make his Mexican gardeners fight each other to keep their jobs.

I guess it's hard to imagine the shell shock of losing a presidential election after spending years and hundreds of millions, not to mention being cast aside by his Republican brethren afterwards.

Still, this is strange.
