I just had more joy after I read this. The arrogance of the Romney camp is astounding.


Huckabee’s convincing victory was as if Bain Capital had lost a takeover bid to George Bailey. For many at Romney’s somewhat subdued “victory party,” the idea that such a rational and well-researched plan could be upset by, as one woman put it, “a country sleaze” simply did not compute. Mitt Romney’s concession was just being announced on CNN as precinct captains shook their heads. Some exclaimed, in the same polite sub-profanities that Romney might use: “Bull!” “Darn!” Somewhere, perhaps, even, “H-E-double hockey sticks!” Told that Fox News had just made a similar announcement, viewers were adamant: “Then Fox News needs to have its head examined!”

Yeah, how off-putting it was to see "a country sleaze" beat "a city sleaze . . . with Jack Lord hair."
