Three things

Romney aide calls RNC vote to block CNN, NBC from debates 'bad optics' - The Hill's Twitter Room

A top adviser to former Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney said Friday it was a mistake for the Republican National Committee (RNC) to ban NBC and CNN from hosting debates during the 2016 primaries, saying the unanimous vote would create "bad optics."

First, this practice of calling things that unfortunately create a bad impression or cause an embarassment "bad optics" is barbaric and in any sane world would be illegal.

Second, having a "twitter room" is bad optics.

Third, a Romney advisor? Really? Romney's presidential campaign was a freakin masterpiece of bad optics. (Of course, come to think of it, who would know better? Let's call it 2.5.)
