Matthews: We have to talk about that Romney speech tonight. That was the most — is he the American candidate running against somebody else? running against the non-American candidate? How many times did he say America like he’s the home team? It’s brilliant apple pie, I’m not going to say the rest of it because we know what the rest of it is. It’s playing home team politics against a guy who he can play to his base as somewhat exotic, somewhat foreign, right Al?
Sharpton: Different. He’s the ‘other.’ I think that’s the implicit campaign against the president, which is a very biased campaign. And I think that he needs to be called out on that.
Matthews: America, America, America. Who are we running against, Norway? Who is the other team?
Sharpton: He’s the President of the United States, he’s running against. When you talk, like he’s talking about somebody other than an American.
Matthews: He’s an interloper.
