CALL ME SNAKE

I don’t normally read, or recommend, articles written by Republican strategists, but I did enjoy the op/ed in yesterday’s Globe about Mitt Romney’s apparent (transparent) attempt to buy the V.P. nomination. Romney has his good points, the author, Todd Domke, said. “It’s his bad points that aren’t so good,” he noted, repeating the famous line about the boxer Sonny Liston. Domke also repeated a quote from McCain during his primary battle with Romney: “Never get into a wrestling match with a pig. You both get dirty, and the pig likes it.” The essay reminded me of how much I enjoy Mitt-bashing and how much I’ve missed it during the last month or two.
