Over half of the time would be dedicated to Mitt changing his mind about what the hell he wants to eat.

didn't one of the Dem nominees a cycle or two ago get soft in the knees when asked about his favorite ice cream flavor?

Mitt loves some Carl's Jr. He's not a fussy eater.

I bet you'd love to devour his 64 year-old leathery sausage.

It's a man-crush (no homo). I mean, who wouldn't want to be Mitt Romney at 64? He's a man's man.

It's mostly a healthy lifestyle and good genes. Unlike the president, a millionaire who has aged poorly the past four years, Romney does not smoke nor drink.

There's no doubt that Romney's an exceptionally handsome man for his age.

Obama was far from a millionaire when he started smoking (and there is no indication that he drinks alcohol in any volume that would negatively impact his health; in fact there is significant evidence that moderate alcohol consumption has health benefits).  smoking is a class issue.  if Obama was born into Romney's wealth it is highly likely that he would not have started smoking, even controlling for the Mormon factor.

Ever hear of "personal responsibility"?

By the way, just like Obama, Romney's wealth is the product of his own hard work (and a bit of good fortune, of course). He was not handed hundreds of millions of dollars. He went out and earned it. The only thing his parents gave him was a good education and upbringing.

I have, and I decided after strenuous and painstaking thought that I didn't believe in it.

I am glad that everything in life can be blamed on somebody/something else. This makes life so much easier!

A better question is why do you bother attempting to spread European-style class warfare in America?

intuitively you might think so, but after living as such for an extended period of time now I can confidently report the exact opposite.

Wealth is almost always just passed down by birth in Old Europe, but things work a little differently in America. Mitt's wealth was built by his own hard work. His parents helped him get through Harvard, but he was on his own afterward. He did not inherit those hundreds of millions; he earned it. Heck, he even worked regular summer jobs during college (e.g., Security Guard at a Chrysler plant in old Detroit). He's no Dumbya.

Yes, that's the point. Everyone can not do what Romney did, because everyone does not have a wealthy CEO/governor father who sends them to elite prep schools and finances their education at Harvard.

There are plenty of other people in the same industry as Romney (i.e., management consulting) who do not come from such a privileged background. Furthermore, a privileged background only gets your foot in the door. It takes smarts and hard work to make something of yourself. Nobody gives it to you; you gotta earn it.

my dad's best friend lived in Richmond County back in the day before he left for the humid pastures of old Orlando Florida in the early 00s.  that's my only memory of SI.  it was before my parents split up, so I had to be no older than 5.  went over there for dinner.  I only have one or two flash-frames of a memory, but they're both sunny, so it was probably summertime.

Obama's was the grandson of a banker who was juiced into Columbia, apperently failed badly, but, nevertheless, was juiced into Harvard.

I've been seeing this ad lately. Oddly, I find Mitt's attempts to relate to "the common man" almost endearing in their desperate transparency.
