9. Don't forget Nimrata Haley

Of course, Mitt Romney's first name is Willard. Lot's of people go by names they consider more user friendly, but it's not usually because their political party is racist.

7. Do you think he would rat his own self out?

Hang his own self out to dry? Haul himself up on his own petards? Own his loathsomeness? A perverse character for sale with no encumberance of conscience.
