Cayman, that's where his one true love is. (His money.) Yeah, but he's the kind of snake who'd leap off a pier and have his family say it was an accident.....so they can collect the life insurance. Then his "doppelganger" would miraculously appear and marry Ann, then run for President. "I am NOT Mitt Romney! He died in a terrible accident, God rest his soul! Now, vote for ME!!"

Oh Geez, out comes the aborted fetus images. Man, that is so disgusting.

From what I understand, Cantor believed his own legend and was busy campaigning for others, which means he was busy raising money. And the constituents forgot all about him.

In other news, I just saw a clip of Neil Cavuto giving the tea drenched warrior queen Michele Bachmann utter hell about the know nothing/do nothing Repub house. On Faux News?

What's next? Cats and dogs cohabitating peacefully?

Man, that would suck, to be forgotten by all except those who despise you.
