The Picture of Mitt Romney

dorian-grey.jpg
The following story might be further proof that former Massachusetts governor and presidential hopeful Mitt Romney is a total cream puff. He's making a big deal out of the fact that he doesn't dye his hair.

Our first reaction was to ask the following questions: Is this a story? What is this? Shouldn't Romney have more to worry about in his campaign than whether or not his dyes his hair? Is this the level political discourse has reached in this nation?

Then we wondered if Mitt Romney was hiding a picture in his attic? What keeps him looking so John-Edwards-dewy-fresh? Is our former governor the real-life manifestation of Oscar Wilde's greatest characters, and is that why he still scares us, even though we try to pretend he was never our governor? (The feeling is mutual.)

Or is he - gasp! - lying? Has anyone out there dared to get close enough to see some telltale roots? And, if you have, please do let us know!

Mitt Romney is the most qualified candidate looking at his record. BYU Highest Honors, Harvard Law Degree, Business Degree where he was named a Baker Scholar, Highly successful business career as a boston venture capitalist, Salt Lake City Winter Olympic Games 2002 CEO after IOC scandal, former Governor of Massachusetts where he came into a 3 bil deficit and left 1 bil surplus, as a Republican who believed in family values - he resisted gay marriage, and set up a "four-year, tuition-free scholarship to any Massachusetts public university or college", Chairmen of Republican Governors, etc, etc

:)

Mitt Romney is indeed the BEST and the MOST QUALIFIED candidate for president. Based on his skills, intellect, executive and managerial experiences, he leaves his competition - both Republican and Democratic - in the dust! America, be informed and vote for Romney!

"The following story might be further proof that former Massachusetts governor and presidential hopeful Mitt Romney is a total cream puff..."

Now hold on a second. Are you telling me that it's Romney's fault the press made an issue about his hair? It's Romney's fault for putting rumors that he didn't create to rest? Remember, it was the Boston Globe who wrote: "The former governor of Massachusetts laid to rest on Friday any RUMORS that he dyes his hair black..." not Romney.

Mitt didn't draw attention to his hair, the media created this issue.

Just further proof that your comments on Mitt are "total cream puff."

Poor article with multiple typographical errors!!

I wish this website looked at things from both sides. I will no longer visit this waste of space.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ....

Sorry, Aaron, you're a pompous ass. If you can identify just one typographical error in this article, I'll take my mouldering painting out of my attic and eat it, too. The only thing I can think of is that "manifestation of Oscar Wilde's greatest characters" might need a "one of," but that's not a typographical error.

"...whether or not HIS dyes his hair?" Maybe I was absent the day they went over pronouns in school, but I think it should read HE, not HIS. Typos aside, my major complaint with the article is the same as John's above: Romney did not make a big deal about his hair, the press did. Romney merely responded.

Who are these people at the Boston globe?
Use spell check,
Remember it was Boston globe who posed the question,
and focus your energy on some real issues, this sound like an article that was fabricated in the beuty salon. Find something else to report on. Like Romney the #1 candidate for the republican party.
