In an interview this evening with NBC Reno, Vice Presidential nominee Paul Ryan was critical of comments Romney made
... SNIP ...
Ryan said Romney’s remarks were “obviously inarticulate.” Asked if he thought Mitt Romney regreted his comments, Ryan responded “I think he would have said it differently, that’s for sure.”
At a press conference last night, Romney called his comments at the May fundraiser “inelegant” but largely defended his remarks.
In a separate interview with a New Hampshire station Ryan was asked if he agree with Romney’s remarks at the fundraiser. He responded, “no.”

Paul Ryan's doing the same thing. This VP run is his ticket to book sales and a Fox gig.
No one, not even Republicans, likes Mitt Romney and wants him to be President.
