I vote for Mitt Romney's "Who let the dogs out?" moment.

Classic presidential campaining... they take him out for a photo op with some young black people. They probably don't support him (or even maybe know who he is) and he looks uncomfortable in the situation. For know reason, he says "Who let the dogs out?". A very outdated reference that seemed to be done so he could "relate" to them.

Detroit Pleads Poverty in Style

Like someone arriving at a food bank in a limousine, the chief executives of the three major U.S. automakers spark outrage when they fly their corporate jets to Washington D.C. to beg Congress for a multi-billion dollar bailout. Yes, we know that corporate jets are often a cost-effective way for the heads of far-flung corporations to get around. But someone should have known this wasn't going to look good (and, sure enough, Congress sent the auto chiefs away empty-handed). At the very least, couldn't they have shared a ride? -

Lamest Road Trip Ever

Let's see ... corporate jets are a no-no ... the subway doesn't go that far ... A bike ride might just kill us ... I know! Let's drive the 10 hours from Detroit to D.C. -- in one of our cool hybrid cars! Given a second chance after the private-jet fiasco to plead their case before Congress, the Detroit 3 take to the road (separately, of course) in a company fuel-sipper. In the case of Chrysler's Robert Nardelli, the exercise in overkill is particularly awkward: The Chrysler Aspen Hybrid he drove will soon be discontinued. beathead
