mensch: The term is used as a high compliment, expressing the rarity and value of that individual's qualities.

I assume, therefore, that Jagger was complimenting Romney? Why am I confused about this posting.

Is the theme that Jagger was saying something nice about him or not?

yes - my point is that he was actually complimenting romney. it is political satire in a blues song but it is hardly anti-romney as reported in the media outlets. A mensch is yiddish and the highest compliment you can give a man.
