It was all a bad dream.
Iowa never happened.
Josh Romney didn’t blow his summer visiting all 99 counties in Iowa, from Lyon to Lee just so his dad could be first runner-up just in case Mike Huckabee is unable to fulfill his duties.
Mitt Romney was never ahead by 20 points in Iowa just three months ago.
Mitt Romney didn’t spend $7 million in Iowa to Mike Huckabee’s $1.4 million.
None of that happened… so just shut up, okay? Shut up… shut up … shut UP!
One day, Josh is pimping Mitt Romney ringtones… and the next?
Okay. Look. Most happy families stay happy families by not talking about certain things. Certain uncomfortable things. Okay? The secret drinker in the family… the un-repaid business loan… the birth seven months after the wedding ceremony… that awkward moment with the sheep at the family reunion picnic when someone thought that everyone else was at the watermelon eating contest… You know. Just like your family.
But Iowa? We shall speak of it no more….
Now, Wyoming? Wyoming rocks! Woo-hoo! Feel the Mittmentum!!!

Tbogg, if nothing else, your ability to always get pictures of five dorky guys is one of the best part about this blog and the damn Internets.
A sheep? One of the little Mittsters did something with a sheep?
How do you know that…is Mickey Kaus missing one?
Oh boy, is he gonna be pissed.
Seriously though, I don’t think we can blame the boys for their peculiar practices regarding animal husbandry. They were, after all, raised with “family values” dating back to their Mormom heritage in the old West.
You know, when men were men—and the sheep were nervous.
Sorry, 5 Bros, but after watching the replay of the Repub debate on TiVo (yes, I got home this late, my solicitous but always nosy next door neighbor), Mittster would appear to be even deeper in the shittster.
Do the US a favor, Mittspawn, & volunteer for another campaign, the one in the ME.
Maybe it’s because the Mittlings visited every county in Iowa. It might just be a case of to know them is to loathe them.
Okay I have the cofee drained from the keyboard.
I wish they’d split up and volunteer for Obama and Clinton, like that really cool “La Raza” made for TV flick from a long while ago. I’m so damn tired of settling for triangulating, corporate financed Republicrats who keep on voting money for the war while ignoring the economy and health care and so many other ills. The Romney boys can help Hil and Barack “fight the war” just as effectively as they did for their Dad. Time to have the MittSpawn go viral. Go forth and baptize someone else’s campaign.
“But DAAAD, you’re blowing our inheritance!”
Come to think of it, he’s got five sons and he still had to hire a lawn crew?
Sheesh, they won’t mow the lawn, they won’t fight in wars… it’s time for some tough-love. Spend it all, Mitt!
Wait till the implosion….and the 5 Bros start pointing fingers at who was responsible for this debacle. I think it’ll be “Tagg, you’re It!”
Does the Mittster have a tinge of Ted Knight? Or is it wishful thinking?
I’m sure, as the Mittmobile left Iowa, that I could hear the strains of “Cry Me a River” on the world’s tiniest violin…
Why doesn’t Ben Romney have a reading list and is Tagg really that much into Teddy Roosevelt?
At least they are still speaking to Dad, unlike Rudi’s spawn. Which may be why Willard brings up the sons and the daughters-in-law in every single debate. Ya think?
