57. I use the name "Mitt Romney" as Republican repellant

They scurry like roaches if you mention the name when they get on one of their diatribes. It works great. Say "Mitt Romney is your candidate" and they end the conversation quickly.

It's beautiful if you don't want to discuss politics, but it's even more convenient if they know you are a Democrat and are trying to avoid getting into it.

This is either satire or a setup by the radio station host... randome Apr 2012 #1
And I just heard some pundit on MSNBC today saying they were going to let her loose because K Gardner Apr 2012 #38
