Meanwhile on Twitter, the hashtag \#RomneyShambles was trending on both sides of the Atlantic.

For instance, \@Pawelmorski's Tweet read: "Americans: This Mitt person is some sort of American Borat, right? \#romneyshambles"

The hashtag is a play on "omnishambles," from the BBC TV series "The Thick of It," a satire of British government.
