Mitt Romney wins the weirdstakes

Via Maggie Haberman, this glimpse of Mitt Romney trying to make small talk during a visit to a New Hampshire elevator company is a profile in weirdness:

Later, he continued guessing the origins of people?s names.

?I?m Lisa Dellisola,? one woman said to Romney. ?That?s a Spanish name? Italian?? he responded. (It?s Italian, and she confirmed Romney had her vote.)

As Romney began to leave the company after his hourlong visit, he looked at the owner?s girlfriend, Ellen Boss. ?Nice,? Romney said as she blushed. ?Nice choice. Just like me.?

Yikes. Can you say awkward?
