Romney Unlocks Foreign Policy Blunder Badge

Mitt had his first serious foreign policy blunder today and he hasn't even been anointed as America's First White Man yet.

MOSCOW (AP) -- President Vladimir Putin says a comment made by U.S. presidential candidate Mitt Romney has made Russia feel justified in opposing America's missile defense plans in Europe.

The Republican challenger to President Barack Obama has branded Russia the "No. 1 geopolitical foe" of the United States.

Putin said Tuesday that statement shows Russia is right to criticize the U.S.-led NATO plan to place land- and sea-based radars and interceptors in several European locations.

This is clearly a distraction. A shiny object.

Team Romney keeps on losing.
