Message to Mitt

By Baxter

Uh-oh! Despite what POLITICO has described as a "strong showing" for Mitt Romney in the recent New Hampshire straw poll, we cats smell trouble in the air.

(We have very good noses, you know. Fourteen times more powerful than yours, in fact.)

See, here's the deal. While the Mittster may indeed have received 35 percent in the WMUR-ABC News poll, added together his potential rivals garnered 55 percent of the vote. In short, Mitty is not supported by more than half of the Granite State's Republicans.

To add insult to injury, the New Hampshire GOP turned its back on an establishment candidate and picked a teabagger to lead the state party. Mitt, in case you haven't already noticed, we cats have to break the news: The teabaggers hate you.

Yep, this supposed slam-dunk for Romney in his own backyard sure smells fishy. Which means the 2012 Republican primaries should be fun, fun, fun. We cats PURR.
