And damn, but what a schmuck of a husband. His wife’s horse is performing in the Olympics for God’s sake…and he’s not going to watch with her.

Romney has a personal connection with the London Games. His wife co-owns the horse Rafalca, which will compete in Olympic dressage.

Her husband however sounded on NBC like he knew little about competitive dressage, which in London marks its 100th year as an Olympic sport.

“I have to tell you. This is Ann’s sport. I’m not even sure which day the sport goes on,” he said. “She will get the chance to see it, I will not be watching the event.”

Maybe she just threw a million of her husband’s bucks at the stable and doesn’t give a damn, but from what I’ve read about her that’s not the case. Dressage is beautiful…I wish my daughter would do it instead of (more dangerous) show jumping.

But if an animal I owned was in the Olympics I’d expect my husband to attend the event with me. How many crap banquets has Ann sat through over the years to support him?
