Mitt Romney, during campaign stops in Michigan yesterday, embraced his Michigan roots for all theyre worth. As he watches his popularity plummet in the state in which he grew up, he seems to be grasping at anything to keep from sinking any further.
Romney tried to hit all the right buttons in order to resonate with Michigan voters leading up to their February 28 primary, by making himself one of them again. I was born and raised here. I love being in Michigan, Mr. Romney said. Everything seems right here. You know, I come back to Michigan; the trees are the right height. The grass is the right color for this time of year, kind of a brownish-greenish sort of thing. It just feels right.
As if those bizarre references werent enough to make one scratch their head, the candidate went on to further befuddle his audiences by offering up a paean to the states Great Lakes.
I like seeing the lakes. I love the lakes. Theres something very special here. The Great Lakes, but also all the little inland lakes that dot the parts of Michigan.

"..and the sky. I love the Michigan sky. It's blue. And the Michigan clouds, white I believe.."
There goes his Ca Sequoia vote. :p
Wonder if Mitt realizes that we usually can’t see that beautiful yellowish brown grass this time of year. And exactly what is the right height for trees?
What a maroon.
Mitt Romney: The pride of the GOP-e.
It’s funny that cartoon looks nothing like Santorum, yet it does look like him.
That’s talent.
Was that flop sweat I saw on his brow?
I love fall in Detroit when all the shingles fall off and the smell of abandoned houses burning wafts through the air.....
Ineligible RINO Backstabber:
"This RomneyCARE we are imposing is just SO RIGHT.
"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party
over to the traitors in the battle just ended.
We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged
to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support.
Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates
wouldn't make any sense at all.""
-- President Ronald Reagan
Desperate is right. If any of the state’s leaders are appearing with him it’d be fun to watch them cringe as he comes out with this embarrassing pap.
You Are Special
by Mitt R. Rogers
You are my friend
You are special
You are my friend
You’re special to me.
You are the only one like you.
Like you, my friend, I like you.
In the daytime
In the nighttime
Any time that you feel’s the right time
For a friendship with me, you see
F-R-I-E-N-D special
You are my friend
You’re special to me.
There’s only one in this wonderful world
You are special.
Wow. That’s sad. Even Fox News isn’t going to be able to fix that.
“You know, weve been to Massachusetts. I love the ocean, too, I do love the ocean, but theres something special about lakes, where you dont get salt on you after youve been swimming, where theres no seaweed, where you dont have to worry about things eating you in the water, Mr. Romney said.”
LOL
There is nothing in the waters off the coast of Mass. that will eat you in the water.
Idiot.
“There is nothing in the waters off the coast of Mass. that will eat you in the water.”
But I repeat myself.
LOL
Sentence should have read:”There is nothing in the waters off the coast of Mass that will eat you.
Now, where’d I leave my dang glasses?
I just hope Santurday Night Live has the sense to run with it.
I love Michigan and could actually convince people that I’ve been here once or twice.
This is just funny.
Are we sure Mitt has actually been to Michigan before?
I hope they do, too!
Maybe they could bring back the “Candygram” shark!
LOL
I love the White House.
It’s White.
It’s in Washington DC.
I want to go to there.
