Holidon'ts: Shopping With Mitt
Is there a Republican in your life that you really love? Or a Democrat you love to hate? Get them the perfect holiday present by going--we're not kidding--holiday shopping with former Massachusetts governor and presidential aspirant Mitt Romney.
The following gifts are available for the Mitt-lover in your life:
$50: Signed Romney family photo (it's probably large for obvious reasons) and mugs
$100: The above, plus a Romney for President ornament and signed recipes from Ann Romney
$250: All of the above, plus a voicemail from Romney with your name (Wait … Wait … Don't Tell Me ripoff!) and a Romney fleece blanket
OK, this is tacky no matter which party he represented. We'd say the same thing of any other candidate who offers these commemorative presents. Maybe we'd like to find out what's emerging from Ann's kitchen that keeps that family looking so happy all the time, but that's it.
And why on earth is he not offering an Oven Mitt? That's an obvious treat for a Mitt-Lover, and some poor Republican is going to have to make an Oven Mitt on his or her own.
