Comments on: All we are saying is give Mitt a chance http://tbogg.firedoglake.com/2008/01/15/all-we-are-saying-is-give-mitt-a-chance/ \"...a somewhat popular blogger\" Fri, 17 Feb 2012 12:41:46 -0600 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.2 By: sophronia http://tbogg.firedoglake.com/2008/01/15/all-we-are-saying-is-give-mitt-a-chance/#comment-2992 sophronia Wed, 16 Jan 2008 01:50:56 +0000 http://tbogg.firedoglake.com/2008/01/15/all-we-are-saying-is-give-mitt-a-chance/#comment-2992 <p>Poor Mitt — he didn’t realize that the old strategy of “If I keep displaying the utter vastness of my wealth and priviledge, they will make me President!” is soooooo twentieth century. Now it’s all about the “Fuck You” voting. People only want to cast votes for lunatics, populists, rebels — anyone whom the media hairdos have decided is a completely unelectable, ridiculous choice. It’s how Arnold Schwarzenegger won, I’m convinced it’s how Hilary won New Hampshire, and right now it’s all going for Huckabee.</p> Poor Mitt — he didn’t realize that the old strategy of “If I keep displaying the utter vastness of my wealth and priviledge, they will make me President!” is soooooo twentieth century.

The Big Decision to run for prez over Christmas, a little touch football with the boys, a picnic and a few fireworks. He probably lost in ‘94 because he hadn’t come up with that idea yet.</p> A measure of the man’s deep sincerity is the way the camera crews always happen to be around when he is sharing warm and intimate moments with his family.

His turn at spending a month in the real world is gonna be over any day now.</p> I’ve finally figured out where Mitt came from….he escaped from that Twilight Zone episode where the department store mannequins come to life.

That’s enough for many Republicans. Competence, humanity, or compassion would be way too liberal.</p> Romney looks like his portrait would not scare small children.

There’s only so many dishrags you can make from that cloth.</p> Well, give him a break – he’s clearly working from the same cloth that produced most of the Presidents (Repugnicans, at least) that we’ve had in his lifetime.
