7. The Mittster is a carpetbagger from Michigan

Oct 2012

who went to school here, went after a high profile senator-ship (lost to Teddy K) and a high profile governorship only as a stepping stone to the WH. Mitt served for about 18 months and then spent the next 2 1/2 years on the road campaigning for president, all the while bashing the state of MA as a liberal dumping ground.

He ran up the state fees for everything, making it very expensive to go to state colleges and left the state with about $1.8 billion debt, and 47th out of 50 in job creation. He sucked as governor.

I called Governor Patrick's office Monday and left message with assistant requesting that Patrick call his good friend Obama and fill him in on how sucky a governor Mitt was so it can be used in 3rd debate.

We had an influx of right wing yuppies during the 80s which is why shit heads like Mitt and centerfold Scottie can elected here now.
