'If I were a fanatic I'd let off nuclear bomb in Chicago'

Mitt Romney’s White House bid took another blow last night after he appeared to suggest a pro-Iranian terrorist could hold America to ransom by threatening to blow up Chicago with a nuclear bomb.

In one of the most bizarre remarks ever made by a presidential candidate, the Republican challenger outlined how he might carry out an attack – comments critics claimed exposed America’s weaknesses.

They were revealed just hours after videotapes of Mr Romney showed him making a series of derogatory remarks about Americans, Palestinians, Mexicans and the Chinese.

‘If I were Iran – a crazed fanatic, I’d say let’s get a little fissile material to Hezbollah, have them carry it to Chicago, and then if anything goes wrong, or America starts acting up, we’ll just say, “Guess what? Unless you stand down, why, we’re going to let off a dirty bomb.

Thanks Mitt for for planting the seed.

As if they didn't already know this.

Truth really messes with left thinkers. Or should I say NON thinkers.

Why Chicago I wonder? Perhaps best not to elaborate, I suppose. I'm sure many seeds are already out there planted. You know what they say, the best qualified candidates aren't the ones that want to run for office, so we get the rest. Secret tapings may be one reason why?

Really? That is all you have? Where is your condemnation of Ian Fleming for giving ideas to bad guys? How about Tom Clancy?

Just remember this, Obama, worst recovery ever. Latest Obama triumph, rescuing GM? According to Forbes.com, Barack and US taxpayers might have to rescue them again in a few months.

But now they can do it and blame it on Mitt.

I wonder what he would do if this actually came to pass in Chicago?

It's already been on TV so Mitt didn't come up with the Bright Idea of the day.

Sometimes .dailymail.co.uk reminds me of a tabloid.

It IS a tabloid.

Oh, okay nevermind. LOL

Most major British newspapers are in tabloid format. Makes it easy to read on the tube, a bus or at the table.
