Demented?

"I’ve been looking at some video clips on YouTube of President Obama, then candidate Obama, going through Iowa making promises," [Romney] said. "I think the gap between his promises and his performance is the largest I’ve seen, well, since the Kardashian wedding and the promise of til death do we part."
Now, let's see, we're talking about a wedding when? August 20? But that's not when Romney could have seen a gap between promises and performance; like the rest of us, he had to wait until November 1. Just as he learned about Obama's broken promises of 2008 last week, or whenever, when he was watching those videos, I guess. I wonder which promises?  And why he noticed it just now? Or if he noticed it before and then forgot and noticed it again, the way he finished reading Bush's memoirs last May and then forgot and finished the book again in November? I knew an Alzheimer's sufferer who was like that with detective stories; you don't suppose Romney is one of those early-onset cases, do you? It would explain all that apparent flipping and flopping and his deep moral certainty that he is not flipping or flopping, if he just keeps making decisions all the time, without realizing that he's made the same ones--one way or the other--before... Uh-oh...
