“I don’t get it. What’s wrong with mentioning the nice trees in Michigan?”
Well, Mr. Romneybot, there are three things wrong with it.
1) It sounds completely retarded (because it is).
2) Political opportunist pandering to a local electorate is fine to a certain extent but if the best pandering you can do is mention the height of trees (or feel compelled to mention it at all) then you have no clue what the locals want to hear. I am quite certain the people of Michigan will cast their votes on a myriad of issues and trees ain’t it.
3) I can only infer that he believes the trees where I live are NOT the right height. Anyone with half a brain knows that only Kentucky has trees that are just the right height. Of this, there can be no question.
I'm not a Mr. nor am I a Romneybot. I appreciate the fact you feel Romney isn't worthy of the GOP nomination. Frankly I feel no passion for any of them. My goal is to get Obama elected. I'll support who ever is our nominee and I am not going to allow Reuters or you to decide for me that mentioning trees in Michigan is retarded, or what is or is not the "best pandering", or even who has the best trees in America outside of western Washington :-)
