================ "Will" Romney sounds innocuous. Too slender to be a "Lard" Romney.
Preza-mitt.
Once this whole Rush Limbaugh and the true believers circus ends. As soon as Republicans figure out they do not want to lose pure with Perry or Cain, lose by casting their lot with a failed Speaker.
Mitt wins and gives them 80% of what they want, vs. 4 more years of Obama and 10% if the brain-dead rightwing is lucky.
Michael Lewis, in his book Trail Fever, rewinds the nomination of Dole, back in 1996.
Dole was making his "last run."
In 1988, running against the elder Bush, Dole got 33% of the primary vote in Iowa. 300,000 republicans came out to vote, back then. When Iowa had a 3-million-member enrollment of voters in Iowa, alone.
I think the "primaries" now ... are similar to the "Occupy" movement ... It's got "fail" written all over it.
Because the Internet hasn't yet found a way to get the media from stopping it's hype.
Anyway, back in 1996, Dole led Iowa with 28% of the vote.
Today's winnah? Whoever it was, wasn't it 27% at the grand top?
Numbers are falling.
But the media keeps trying to crown Mitt.
As to Obama ... he's gonna see a 3-way-competition. With Donald Trump coming out as an Independent. He'll show you that he can change government! He'll do "your fired" to all the politicians who lack business sense. And, he'll show you business leaders.
Heck, back in 1996 the GOP saw Morry Taylor coming out. And, the terrified hyenas who vote in Iowa and New Hampshire didn't pick him.
In 2012 the winner will wear a badge of courage!
Obama will come in 2nd, shedding coattails. So a lot of politicians up for election ... will fly from office. Just like Russ Feingold.
The GOP nominee? He comes in 3rd.
That's my trifecta ticket. First place, Donald Trump. Second place, Obama. And, 3rd place Mitt. Who'll be weighed as being "heftier" than Perry.
Oh, yeah. Biden's gonna be replaced. Obama has to convince Hillary, though. And, the best argument? If she runs with Obama, as his veep. And, he loses, she's a shoo-in for the democrapic nomination in 2016.
You mean you need a license to do "strat-e-jerry?" REALLY?
Of course, if Trump makes it, he'll take two terms. (And, yes. I think he picks Sarah as his veep. She's trying to look so "middle of the road," she's actually backing Mitt, now.)
You know why? She wants to shoot the McCain curse all over Mitt Romney.
This is so cool! Excited to see you starting to do stuff like this.I'm still just a hack, of course, but I learn so much when I get the chance to tag along when you're shooting. Plus with your knowledge of photographing Viet Nam, this should be an amazing trip for people.
"I also like to call him The Romster and The Romnulator. I assume other people do too."
I guess if Mr. Romney had an electric, or a futuristic (maybe he does?) persona, then those would work. I have a hard time thinking that is true, however.
With a name like Mitt Romney, it sounds like something I'd expect to see in the LL Bean catalog.
to appeal to Hispanics, Willard Romney should become "El Lardo" ... on second thought, that's already taken by the surging and ever-expanding Newt Gingrich.

I often enjoy saying "Preznit" on purpose.
Like "sammich," "telebision," and "birfday."
Prannadairfessor.
I just wanted to be the first person on the internet to write that word.
It's still a long way from the cup to the mitt without a slip.
Presmittdent
I guess that makes me second.
WV: cullati
I've got first sewed up here.
The first, and the last
Heava hava is how someone told me the PA Dutch language sounds.
Shouldn't it be spelled Presmittrom?
Why?
Mitts followers are Romulans.
President Wilbur-Mittens.
td isn't that easy, t and d being the same but the first unvoiced and the second voiced.
nightdress
postdoctoral
shutdown
being the only natural occurences in a fairly long word list.
Better than than another term of President Present.
Or President Goldman Sachs.
Or President of All 57 (actually 60) States.
PS From your sweet lips to God's ears, Madame.
I wonder what would have been if he had used his first name all along, Willard.
I also like to call him The Romster and The Romnulator. I assume other people do too.
Worst episode ever.
Even Cain however f-ed up preferable to Romneytoid--the Randian-occultist liar (aka "mormons") in the running.
Ann, do you have any pet names for Obama? or do you fear such an exercise in levity becomes racist at some point in some people's mind?
Mormons should not be allowed to run for public office in the US. So take care of it, AA. Make it a law.
Sounds like a band of toothpaste.
'Presmittdent'?
Why not 'entermation'?
Has Mittens Romnia coughed up a COLB yet? Doesn't look like it.
Yo, J: please tell me what the term "byro" means? serious question.
Apologies to J and others--last post asking for definition of "byro" went as "unknown." Should have been RogerJ
Please don't feed the bears.
As a great American tactician once observed, "Never apologize, it's a sign of weakness".
ed--OK, John Wayne as Capt Brittles in she wore a yellow ribbon (I think)--but only Trooper York is authorized to use them :)
He does like to show off his fabulous teeth.
Makes me think of Mentadent.
Gesundheit.
here's the link again: Byroniusaka sorepaw "Sofa king" looks like it as well. Stupid, weird, off topic, often pro-Romney. THats the freak
Note the many s-names here w/o blog/profile/info. Many of these are the work of byro (DU Reg, Digby troll).
@Ann, nice. How about Presbozo or Presbamy?

Presinewt. Perrydent. Bachmident. Presitorum.
And the strangest combination of all, President Ron Paul
Presmittdent: telltale sign left by idiot string.
How about "Permittsident"
Althouse sez:

Never ever "assume" anything.
You know, you all are wrong. I just came from the wonderful shindig at the Oval Room with really, really super K-street consultants.
The focus is Obama Brand. What will happen after the re-election of the Greatest POTUS since Lincoln.
- Reagan has airport named after him. Should we consider naming a city after the POTUS Obama?
- Will there be elementary to high schools named after the POTUS? What about the College, such as Obama Community College?
- How soon after the Congressional Black Caucus starts the addition to Mt. Rushmore, it will happen? Like by 2020?
- There will be chair-ships across US universities, including at Madison for professors who demonstrate excellence.
Etc.
Forget Romney, GOP will bury him. They will nominate our man, Perry.
He's The Romineey!
If the GOP convention doesn't go absolutely wild, then Mitt "gets the nomination."
Don't think that it's a sure thing!
And, if the media didn't turn Iowa and New Hampshire into circus grouds ... then the "first to primary" wouldn't amount to a hill of beans.
Should we consider naming a city after the POTUS Obama?
Start with Obamaville and work your way up.
Stop when you get to Detroit.

and I just wanted to say AlthoBamafail, just to commemorate Althouse's recommendation to vote for the failure now present in the WH ...
Presmittsecond.
Presmittdent.
I just wanted to be the first person on the internet to write that word.
That's not a word and, even if it was, it's pretty bad/lame/tired. I'd try to come up with a good one but Romney is pretty bad/lame/tired.
Can we just move on?
Is this the first step towards not voting for him?
This is so cool! Excited to see you starting to do stuff like this.I'm still just a hack, of course, but I learn so much when I get the chance to tag along when you're shooting. Plus with your knowledge of photographing Viet Nam, this should be an amazing trip for people.

Ann, what is the brouhaha about Mitt's ad? WH is protesting too much which means the ad is doing its job, er.. damage.
Cute, but not nearly as witty as my Governatoress.
