After spending the day in Chicago fundraising, Mitt Romney sat down with small business owners at Gino's East, a pizza joint famous for their deep-dish pizza.
Not wanting any of the leftover slices to go to waste, Romney sent the remaining pies to where else but President Obama's Chicago reelection headquarters.
Asked if the pies actually made it to Obama's HQ, a campaign source said that they had.
In fact, Romney himself tweeted a photo of a delivery boy heading out with the loot, writing, "Great deep dish at @ginoseast. Sending the extra slices to @barackobama and his Chicago HQ team."
Presidential hopeful Tim Pawlenty also took a swipe at Obama today with this tweet: "@barackobama sorry to interrupt the European pub crawl, but what was your Medicare plan?"
Oh, I can believe it. If the GOP establishment were smart, they’d unite behind Pawlenty instead of Romney.
But “smart” isn’t exactly a word normally associated with the GOP establishment, is it?
That’s exactly what we need. We’ve got to suppress his voters and capture the mushy middle at the same time.
Nope, she gets it better than you. Palin knows just how much the death by a thousand cuts hurts. She’s lived/living it.
What’s significant about this is that our ‘front runner’ is cutting. We need them all to cut and cut and cut.
If you like Palin, you’ll applaud this. She’s been marginalized as a crack-pot, extremist conservative. Reality is much different than that.
The MSM touts our RINOs as reasonable, thoughtful and moderate. That they attack Obama actually moves the boundaries for the entire race and quickly. Now, Palin’s comments are mainstream too, do you get it?
let Herman Cain control the pizza jokes....You stick with being the architect of zer0bama Care so we can all know where you stand...
...what a friggin doooooshbag
I’m with you. I hate the panty-waist tactics of the GOP, but you can be morally superior while hammering away at the very real weaknesses of Obama.
Reagan did it and destroyed Carter. Obama is Carter Cubed and that just makes for an even richer target.
Finally. Someone who 'gets it'! ;)
(That's exactly what I thought, too.)
Tomorrow night mittens is going to gather some of the girls and go "egg" obama's house!
: D
Both of these socialists make me sick.
Well socialist Romney is a big fan of spreading the pie around...
What’s next? Calling the HQ and asking for Prince Albert in a can? Asking if Dick Hertz is there?
Feel free to add your favorite prank call if I’ve missed one
I actually thought it was kind of funny. A nice “rules for radicals” type tactic.
Disagree that T-Paw’s “swipe” earned him any points. We all know what Obama’s Medicare plan is.
There’s only one use for leftover pizza:
BREAKFAST
And sending leftover pizza to Obama’s re-election office does this how?
More like a tactic the Omegas would use on the Deltas. (obscure “Animal House” movie reference)
Palin hasn’t done anything this embarrassingly stupid.
That’s why it works. There is no answer. Is it mean? Is it kind?
You can’t build a campaign on it, but it works.
LOL. Mindblindness isn’t going to get her elected.
Huh? Are you Mitt’s aide who came up with this stupid stunt?
Step away from the keyboard for a moment. Breath into a paper bag, then read this:
For Palin to win and I don’t mean the nomination, but the Presidency, she will have to move into the mainstream. That’s a fact of American Presidential politics.
To do that she’ll need to triangulate, just like Reagan did. That’s hard on us because we want her to stay just like she is. At some level she’ll have to moderate to tie up the mushy middle. What’s the alternative?
The mainstream moves toward her. Obama needs to be wounded deeply in the mind of the mushy middle for Palin to win. She cannot win without them and she’s damaged goods right now.
