In reply to the discussion: Why I think Mitt Romney is running for President. [View all]davidpdx

The background history is very fascinating and so is your connection with the Romney family. Hearing about Romney's father kind of makes me think of the comparison of George HW Bush to George W. Bush. While George HW Bush's policies weren't great, they were no where near as disastrous as his sons. His son also had twice as long to carry out his damage on the country.
I had no idea about the three bridges. If Mitt wants a bridge named after him, I think we should just take up a collection and build one for him. A nice small wooden bridge in the countryside he can visit. It would be a hell of a lot better then having him as our president.
