Scrooge's niece is referring to her husband, Fred, in the above piece of dialogue. She could have been reviewing the U. S. presidential debate last night.
Now, anybody who reads this blog consistently knows that I am not a big fan of Republicans. I can't afford to be. Thus, take my comments and jokes here with a grain of salt, piece of lime, and some tequila.
That being said, I can't see how any viewer of the debate last night could seriously consider Mitt Romney as a viable candidate for President of the United States. Despite what he says about being a businessperson his whole life, Romney is a political animal. Has been since his birth. His father was governor of Michigan. Mitt ran for Ted Kennedy's senate seat, served as governor of Massachusetts, and has run twice for President of the United States. If you're keeping score, that's four political offices good ol' Mitt has campaigned for and/or won. President Obama served three terms in the Illinois senate, ran for the House of Representatives in 2000 (and lost), got elected to the U.S. Senate in 2004, and got elected President of the United States in 2008. If you're keeping score, that's four political offices Mr. Obama has campaigned for and/or won. Mitt is just as much a career politician as President Obama, if not more. Neither of Mr. Obama's parents held any political office. Mitt Romney was raised on politics.
OK, that's my rant for this morning. Mitt Romney is a ridiculous fellow. If he were honest, he would admit that he is a political creature. He would say that he's wanted to be President of the United States since he saw the cool limo and airplane that came along with the job. He wants guys with guns and ear pieces protecting him. He wants an oval office.
Saint Marty just hopes Mitt Romney has to build his own oval office come November. He could put it on the top floor of his car elevator.
