A regular profile in courage

Both Adam Reilly and Sco wonder just what sort of low standards Globe reporters have to equate Mitt Romney's hosing dog excrement off his rear window with true leadership (in their 500-part series: Better Know A Mitt):
... As the rest of the boys joined in the howls of disgust, Romney coolly pulled off the highway and into a service station. There, he borrowed a hose, washed down Seamus and the car, then hopped back onto the highway. It was a tiny preview of a trait he would grow famous for in business: emotion-free crisis management. ...
Me? I want to know what sort of person puts a dog on his car's roof for a 12-hour car ride. Oh, and I read on a Time Magazine blog (but not in the Globe), that leaving your dog in a box on your car rooftop for 12 hours could very well violate Massachusetts law.
Meanwhile, both David Bernstein and Dan Kennedy wonder why the Globe gave Mitt such a break on the whole mother-and-abortion issue.

That dog was probably crapping becuase it was terrified.
What a jerk.
Agreed

Maybe Mitt's more of a cat person. Or just some sick freak who thinks it's easier to strap a dog carrier to the top of the car than inconvenience himself by working to put the suitcases up there.
I'm not a PETA-worthy animal rights activist. I like a good steak. I just think it's wrong to scare the shit out of your pet (literally, in this case) because you're too lazy or whatever.
Mitt Romney has a posse

Not something you want to see first thing in the morning. And it's apparently out in the wild.
Mitt the Giant?

He could wrestle somebody (while wearing teal tights with gold lame' accents, of course) to woo the NASCAR/WWF set and establish some trailer court cred.
YECHHHH!!

Nothing like a mid-morning eye-opener. LOL
