Romney and "Game"

Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley was on Meet the Press yesterday and had this to say about Rmoney:

"Gov. Romney's just sort of a guy that you never want to play pick-up basketball with. He's always fouling, and he's always crying foul."

Heh-heh-heh!

I like this guy (even though his brother-in-law, my niece's ex, is a jerk ) He was a very good mayor in my old hometown of Baltimore and is doing a great job as governor. There's talk of him running for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2016. Hope he does.

I like O'Malley. Not quite Willie Don (Schaefer), but still good.

I was watching and thought O'Malley's comment was particularly apt. I have no first hand knowledge of his work but I have heard good things about him and every time I see him he impresses me.

He's also leads a Celtic Rock band, O'Malley's March.

I'll bet Obama could kick Romney's ass on the court. Forget the debates. How about a game of 21.

Could you imagine the amount of whining and flopping Mitt would do in such a game?

And the loser has to show his tax returns for the past 10 years.

I can imagine the Prez palming Romney's Brylcreme slathered head as he's desperately flailing about trying to steal the ball.

Obama beat her. You're right, though. If Sec. Clinton wants to run, then Martin ought to wait until 2020 or 2024. He's still quite young and he'll only get stronger over the next 8 - 12 years. It wouldn't be a bad thing to have Mrs. Clinton in the WH with the Big Dog whispering in her ear.
