Mitt Romney is more suited for Mars than to be a presidential candidate, Sen. Tom Harkin told Iowa delegates at their morning breakfast meeting at the Democratic National Convention today.

“We’ve got our work cut out for us this week, folks, following the Republican convention,” Harkin said as the delegates dined on eggs, sausages and biscuits. “I mean, how are we ever going to match Clint Eastwood? I got to thinking he is the perfect icon for today’s Republican tea party: an old angry white man spewing incoherent nonsense.”
