It's not political.

I'm not going to be like Republicans who snark at Democratic women.

...I'll give him props on this one. Much hyped charity event that raised over $1 million to help impoverished kids who have eyesight issues. Holyfield is a good draw but a high percentage of that money has to be on Mitt's shoulders.

And I have to confess that he's 10 years older than me and looks at least 10 years younger. I wouldn't dare put my fat ass out in public in a pair of boxing shorts. No way.

And Ann, what they hell...she's out of touch but she's still human and it looks like everyone if just having a good time.

I saw Mitt talk last year and, at the time, said he's running in 2016. Now, not so sure. I don't think this is the kind of thing you do to keep your name in the spotlight vis-a-vis a nomination.

The clown bus hopefuls attended a January event hosted by Representative Steve King in Iowa.

After the private meeting, Romney said he'd make an announcement in less then two week. A week later, he opted out. The buzz was Jeb beat Mitt to all the big money donors.

As egotistical and cut throat as some of those candidates are, I am not sure I would trust them as my Vice-President.

And I initially thought Jeb would be doing the tapping. These days, I'm not so sure.

Ann Romney or even mitt never appeared as happy as this in political life.

So i hope not just for us but for them the talk of bringing in Romney after what appears to be Jebs early fumbles doesn't happen.
