Please Mittens, Don't Hurt 'Em.

Putz:

HISTORY’S GREATEST MONSTER: Romney taunts Democrats with memories of Carter. A Carter-rerun is now looking like a best-case scenario. . . .

First of all, the more clear-eyed way to look at this is, an out-of-power GOP loser disparaged a guy who, for all his faults, actually got, you know, elected.

Second, Putz is lying. When Romney said, "I'll bet you never dreamed you'd look back at Jimmy Carter as the good old days," he was speaking in tongues addressing the GOP faithful.

So, hmm. Taunting? Not really. I'm pretty sure Democrats think Romney is a clown. Which, as Failed-Candidate McCain can tell you, was also pretty much the judgment of the conservatives.

But by all means, please keep giving Moroni's Man a platform. If the GOP wants to take him seriously, that can only be good for the country.

Romney rising!
