Who is "Milt Romney"?

[Lautremont]

Some knuckledraggers seem convinced he's the next president, and I've never even heard of him.

[momzno1]

1. It's "Mitt"

and he is the repuke govenor of Massachusettws

[AlCzervik]

4. Milt is way funnier though.

[Lautremont]

5. I don't know - at least "Milt" is a real name!

But thanks, all. Will this guy "Mitt" ever be president?

[MADem]

8. And it rhymes with wilt, though Mitt rhymes with shitt!!! nt

[AlCzervik]

2. the gov. of massachusetts.

[Eric J in MN]

3. Do you mean "Mitt Romney," Republican governor of MA? (NT)

NT

6. Mittens the Chameleon Romney is Gov. of Massachusetts.

He tailors his message to the voters he wants to court.
He ran for governor claiming to be a moderate. Now that
he wants to be President, he governs like a right winger,
touring the country bashing his own state.

Local conservatives despise him and consider him a phony.
Otherwise Mittens is a 100% BushBot.

7. MITT the SHITT, as he is fondly (cough) termed in the Bay State

He is the hated carpetbagger from Utah governor of Massachusetts who lives in New Hampshire most of the time, when he isn't roaming around with his Hollywood teeth and creepy plastic hair trying to con people into believing that he is a viable candidate for the presidency. He looks like Skeletor in a blue suit.

He is a complete asshole, and a worthless tool. The only politician in Massachusetts who sucks as much as he does is his LT. Governor, who's idea of a campaign is to run on this platform:

She put her husband through school.
Her father was a WW2 vet who had a heart attack and her mother was a housewife.
She has kids.
Her opponent, Deval Patrick, worked for CLINTON!!!
Her opponent was a lawyer who WON his cases!!
Her opponent will raise taxes (left unsaid--on the RICH, while LOWERING killer property taxes).

Her ad campaign is full of dirty tricks, but no one's buying it.

9. i remember watching him debate Ted Kennedy and he got his clockecleaned

by Kennedy but good, i thought we'd seen the last of him and then he came back.

10. Hopefully the soon to be former Governor of Massachusetts.

He's running for re-election this year, right? The voters of Massachusetts will throw him out on his disgusting right wing ass, right?

[Eric J in MN]

12. No, Mitt Romney isn't seeking re-election for governor.

He'll concentrate on running for president, instead.

MA is expected to have a Democratic governor soon: Deval Patrick.

13. Thanks.

Good to know that Massachusetts will have a Democratic governor again.

21. Hopefully Kerry Healey (R-Snobbish) will be former lt. governor of Mass.

11. We call him Mittens here in Massachusetts

But his real first name is Willard.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitt_Romney

Willard Mitt Romney (b. March 12, 1947) is the 70th Governor of Massachusetts. He is currently in his first term as Governor, serving until 2007. He has stated he will not seek re-election in 2006.<5> Romney is frequently mentioned as a possible candidate for the Republican presidential nomination in 2008. He also serves as the chairman of the Republican Governors Association and honorary chairman of The Commonwealth Political Action Committee.

14. That's in polite society...it's Mitt the Shitt at the baaaaaah!!!!! n/t

[Spider Jerusalem]

15. He's a card-carrying member...

...of the Joe Smith short-sleeve buttondown and clip-on tie Missionary Brigade (Mormons, to you--he used to be a bishop before he went into politics). If he becomes President, alcohol, tobacco and caffeine will be illegal, and polygamy and special holy underwear will be mandatory. No need to worry, though; he hasn't got a chance--belonging to a weird cult that does strange things like baptising dead people is probably going to cost him support among the GOP base of religious nuts (ironically enough).

[Momgonepostal]

16. Just like JFK...

outlawed fish on Fridays and made mass attendence mandatory, and put a big shrine to the Virgin Mary on the White House lawn, him being Catholic and all.

[Spider Jerusalem]

17. ...

I suppose I should've put </sarcasm> there at the end. (Most of that was intended ironically.)

[Ian David]

22. Is there a fetish sight for Mormon underwear? n/t

[Warren Stupidity]

18. Mittens: mormon import using Massachusetts to further career.

I predict his campaign for presidunce goes nowhere, although as an idiot son he qualifies at least on that level.

[TheCowsCameHome]

19. His first name is actually Willard. He actually prefers "Mitt", however.

Sounds logical, I guess. Willard isn't nearly as charming.

[Ian David]

20. They're talking about, Der Mittenfuhrer. n/t

[valerief]

23. Uncle Miltie Romney? Oo, I hope not. He gives you that skeevy

feeling, like Santorum or Allen or Frist. Total sleaze.
