47. Why the hell is Mitt running?

Fri Jul 6, 2012, 06:57 PM

Jul 2012

Is it purely for his ego? Is it to lower taxes and make himself even richer? He doesn't seem to stand for anything. He doesn't strike me an obsessed ideologue. At least an asshole like Santorum had a goal and a purity to his evil. Romney is just a kite blowing in the wind, depending on the direction of the stream of air gushing from Limbaugh's ass.
