Former Phoenix Suns star Charles Barkley is getting lots of attention for a comment he made over the weekend.

Barkley was hosting TNT's NBA Playoff coverage when a camera showed presumptive presidential nominee Mitt Romney in the crowd at the Celtics-Hawks game.

That's when the never outspoken Barkley said, "Mitt Romney, we're going to beat you like a drum in November. Don't take it personally. You seem like a nice guy, but you're going down, bro." Watch the comments here http://wfts.tv/J9eNzz

As you might expect the remarks have drawn a lot of attention online with comments pouring in at a furious rate.

So, what do you think?

Was Barkley out of line?

Should he save his commentary for basketball and skip the politics?

Or, are you okay with what he said?
