ROMNEY: "IT WASN'T ELEGANTLY STATED." STEVEN COLBERT: "I WILL DELIVER MITT'S MESSAGE...ELEGANTLY!"

HUFFINGTON POST, September 19, 2012 -- Mitt Romney isn’t backing down from the message of a secretly recorded video in which he says nearly half of Americans are moochers who want the government to provide everything for them. The delivery, however, Romney admitted, was “inelegant.”

So Stephen Colbert stepped in on Tuesday to deliver that core message with a little more “panache.”

“As you know, we are all gathered here this evening because I have agreed to accept the presidency,” Colbert said. “But unfortunately almost half, two score and seven percent will vote for my opponent, that socialist Hottentot. But what could one do? These people are just greedy parasites, sucking on the withered teat of Lady Liberty. Oh, how their hunger knows no bounds.”

@Rich, did you see Colbert last night, he was at his best, but his guest did put him in a bind asking him to appear on his coming program and even this was funny...(smile)

Jon Stewart seem to be a little off of his game this week, did you notice this? ...
