I just found a top ten list. Enjoy...
A lot is being said in the media about Mitt Romney not being "likable" or that he doesn't "relate well" to people. Frankly, we struggled to understand why. So after much research, we have come up with a Top Ten List to explain this "unlikablility."
Top Ten Reasons To Dislike Mitt Romney:
1. Drop-dead, collar-ad handsome with gracious, statesmanlike aura. Looks like every central casting's #1 choice for Commander-in-Chief.
2. Been married to ONE woman his entire life, and has been faithful to her, including through her bouts with breast cancer and MS.
3. No scandals or skeletons in his closet. (How boring is that?)
4. Can't speak in a fake, southern, "black preacher voice" when necessary.
5. Highly intelligent. Graduated cum laude from both Harvard Law School and Harvard Business School...and by the way, his academic records are NOT sealed.
6. Doesn't smoke or drink alcohol, and has never done drugs, not even in the counter-culture age when he went to college. Too square for today's America?
7. Represents an America of "yesterday", where people believed in God, went to Church, didn't screw around, worked hard, and became a SUCCESS!
8. Has a family of five great sons....and none of them have police records or are in drug rehab. But of course, they were raised by a stay-at-home mom, and that "choice" deserves America's scorn.
9. Oh yes.....he's a MORMON. We need to be very afraid of that very strange religion that teaches its members to be clean-living, patriotic, fiscally conservative, charitable, self-reliant, and honest.
10. And one more point.....pundits say because of his wealth, he can't relate to ordinary Americans. I guess
that's because he made that money HIMSELF.....as opposed to marrying it or inheriting it from Dad. Apparently,he didn't understand that actually working at a job and earning your own money made you unrelatable to Americans.
My goodness, it's a strange world, isn't it?

Hats of to him, really...And i'm glad we all know for sure he's been faithful. :? how do we know this again?
Not even plastic skeletons for Halloween? Must be a Mormon thing.
:fp: That's just the dumbest thing i've heard since 1:17pm today.
I'm sure he rocks at trivial pursuit and scrabble, but I will fuck him up in a good game of battleship. And that is a concern for our nations safety.
I can't even bring myself to use the face-palm smiley.
That is good stuff, except...people dont go to church anymore? :?
Is one of them going to be the VP?
You forgot the underwear thing.
oooh, juicy sarcasm! :corn:
he really pulled himself up by his bootstraps :roll:

Yeah, who was his dad again???
ever sense Bush "that I remember" it's been family values that was pitched to the American public now it seems that most people have thrown that aside just hoping for the best to happen so they can live in the world they want to believe in at least for 4 to 8 years..and some politions will sell their soul to get your vote.

Yeah, being a community organizer is awful. :roll:
15. Made fun of and physically hurt a gay classmate in high school.
16. May not have paid his taxes for over a decade.
17. Some of Mormonism was founded on racist beliefs...by a con artist.
18. Might be the biggest flip flopped ever.
by "charity," are you referring to the mormon church?
serious question. I live in Utah....there is no doubt the mormons take care of their own but others, not so much.

It is election season, after all, so sharing one's political views -- however outlandish they may be -- is to be expected. But how about from a 6-year-old? Isaac Anthony counts down the 10 reasons why he thinks you should not vote for Barack Obama in a YouTube video posted by the conservative website Patriot Update. His list of reasons includes the fact that, in his opinion, Obama is "taking money from people who work hard" and "keeping people on welfare and food stamps." After Anthony delivers reason No. 4, "He wants to take guns away from good guys," he shoots his mock pistol at the camera.
Since Sunday more than 160,000 people have viewed the video, and as you might expect, it's been met with more than a little controversy. Some commenters on YouTube are calling the clip "sad" and "ignorant." Over on Twitter, most people are blaming the boy's parents, saying that it's an example of indoctrination. On the other side of the fence, viewers are commending Anthony, with one YouTube commenter writing, "He's smarter than half of Americans."
Good point.
Usamamsan, are you just settling for Mitt?
pretty sure he'd vote for anyone with a big R by their name.
Isn't this one of those things conservatives often complained about JFK- that he got elected on his good looks?
-Eddie Vedder, "Smile"
just becuase he gave inheritance to charity does mean that he did things himself. I have a feeling he might have used his father contacts to get things.
gun control, marriage equality, tax reform, universal health care, animal cruelty...
Mitt Romney has held very many, wildly-contradicting opinions and positions on every one of them. Depending on what office he's holding, who paid for him to get there and who's paying for the one he wants next... he'll radically change his position on anything. Much like John McCain ran a campaign for president saying pretty much the opposite that he'd said for years.
If that's not a good reason to vote against him, I don't know what is.
But I guess none of that matters to someone who thinks having a background as a community organizer is somehow a bad thing.
it would be the funniest thing if it wasn't so sad ... it really is mind boggling how anyone could vote for this sleazebag ... the partisan divide really has the majority of the population indoctrinated ...
but then again so has Obama.
