his name is Willard Mitt Romney.

it should have been been listed as so in above poll if Mr. Obama's full name was used.

Obviously the OP is biased and should be killed.

Why does it matter? It's his middle name. He's probably proud of it. Big deal what it is. For the same group of people who preach tolerance isn't it a bit of a contradiction to take his middle name as a slur? Maybe I'm off but it would seem that's what your implying. That by using it you're somehow denouncing him? Who cares.


EDIT that was weird if anyone caught that accidental copy paste from iPhone thing, if not no worries then lol.

According to Willard's Wikipedia page he was called "Billy" up until kindergarten at which point he decided he'd rather be called "Mitt." So I still don't think he has a middle name. I could be wrong.

because when you list candidate on a ballot you should be consistent.

and I don't care. It's Monday night and I'm bored.

I simply dont agree with Romney on several domestic issues and the reality is neither can fix the economy. Romney is far too shady and crooked, in fact he makes Nixon look like a saint.

I have been a member of the GOP since forever, but I dont like the direction the party is going. Or, maybe 6 years in Seattle is changing me to be more liberal. Last time I voted for the Old Fart and the MILF. This time I say 4 More Years!!!!

It's pretty disrespectful to force others to purchase a product from a private company as a condition of citizenship.

So we'll call it even.

A kindergarten kid wants to be called Mitt instead of Billy? He's been a pompous douchebag for a long time.

I think America would buy into Bill Romney more than Mitt Romney. This guy has the Un-Midas Touch.
