Romney & the dog story.
Advertisements [?]
Edited on Tue Aug-09-11 05:04 PM by SoCalDem
A few months ago I listened to part of a discussion on the radio about this story, and the conclusion they arrived at was that the whole story was probably FALSE, and was little more than Romney again trying to be a regular "guy". He misspoke and then spun it out a whole other way which only made it worse..

Here's why:

The guy is freaking RICH..

does anyone really believe that he piles his family into a car & DRIVES several hours to their palatial "lake house"?

People like HIM hire a plane, and are met by "staff" when they arrive.. If there is no "staff", they have a car waiting for them..

They do not pack all their stuff to haul it there// They are not Ma,Pa & kids heading out on a cross-country adventure as they stop in desperation at Super 8's. They have everything they could possibly need, already AT the lake house.

He wants so desperately to have people believe that he's a "regular guy" who lives like they do, that he spins yarns that go horribly awry..with the family dog strapped to the car roof, on a journey that probably never even happened:)
