The Year in Mitt Mashups, Part 1: Pretty Mitt

Former Massachsuetts governor and Republican presidential aspirant Mitt Romney has been at the center of Bostonist's thoughts. That's not because of his freshly minted ultra-right politics or the cute way he pretends not to know Massachusetts when the state comes up in conversation. It's because his previous official portrait as governor makes for some really funny photo mashups.

Bostonist should probably be banned from Photoshop for life, but here's a look back at the Year in Mitt Mashups. First, we'll prove that Mitt Romney possesses the kind of mug that can launch a million mashups:

Just for Men Mitt
Just for Men Mitt was born after it was revealed that he paid $300 to be groomed by a makeup team. However, the makeup team didn't need to do much with him. One of the makeup artists said, "He's already tan. We basically put a drop of foundation on him … and we powdered him a little bit."

Dorian Gray Mitt
Even though it's clear that Romney takes great care to look good, he appears to be a touch sensitive about it. He felt the need to tell the world that he doesn't dye his hair. Even though he's 60 and requires only a "drop of foundation," his remarkably youthful appearance suggests that he might be hiding a portrait in the attic.

The parallels between Mitt Romney and Oscar Wilde's legendary literary character became clear when Romney claimed that he wasn't going gray and didn't color his hair. If that's true, then he must be hiding a portrait in the attic.
