In other news from the Giuliani-Romney New York pizza tour of 2012, an iron-lunged protester awkwardly interrupted a press conference by repeatedly shouting, "Mitt Romney, you're a racist!" Someone has already uploaded the CNN feed to the Web, and you can watch below as Romney valiantly attempts to listen only to a reporter's question.

No word on what  the protester (who called to mind nothing so much as this scene from The Princess Bride) was referring to, but one thing's for sure: Running for president seems like a deeply unpleasant experience.
