PICTURE OF MITT "DORIAN" ROMNEY


A Portrait of Mitt "Dorian" Romney (Also known as Portrait of a Flip Flopper)

The portrait in the attic
is true to Mitt's bare soul,
and it's really quite dramatic
to see this hidden toll.
Some blues have turned to red,

and his head's a bit awry.


An eye has gone to bed,
and an ear is on his tie.
As oils run in that dark place,

on a portrait kept at bay.
Romney runs a heated race,
a race to lose on a clear bright day.

(Regards to Oscar Wilde, author of "The Picture of Dorian Grey")

McCain could use a Vice President with financial smarts who might help him fix the economy that the Bush administration has trashed. Romney is one of those guys who doesn't care much for the working man or woman. He is totally focused on business. There seems to be a a certain meanness about him. Something about this guy. Last time he rang my bell was a crack he made about unions.

It's easy to think of Romney as the official in charge of the execution of Eddie Slovik in WWII. I see him stopping the order to shoot because he hears Slovik praying. He runs up to Slovik and rips the beads from his hands and he is so agitated that he right then gives the order to shoot.
