We cats had a sudden thought while reading through today's McDonnell trial coverage: What if Willard Mitt Romney had picked Transvaginal Bob? You know, as a running mate?
While we're not sure what ultimately tipped the scales against McDonnell, we can all speculate that the greedy Maureen pitching Ann Romney on Anatabloc at a campaign event in South Carolina couldn't have helped. On the other hand, it may have been more of a case of Willard just liking Mr. Widow's Peak from Wisconsin just a whole bunch better than he liked anybody else.
But it doesn't do any harm to imagine, especially since it's so fun. Because Transvaginal Bob's defense continues to portray Mrs. Transvaginal Bob as Wife From Hell. Today, her image also morphed into Boss From Hell.
In January 2012, the entire Governor's Mansion staff wrote a letter that threatened mass resignation if Maureen didn't stop abusing them in "screaming phone call[s]" and "nasty e-mail[s], during work, in the evenings, on the weekends and on holidays."
But wait, there's more: "We come to work every day wondering what the climate will be," the letter says. "'Who will get it today, and to what degree?'...Every one of us has mentioned the sick feeling we get when we see FLOVA on the caller ID, just wondering what we might have done wrong this time."
Gosh! Who does that remind you of? The greedy cheerleader, thrust into a role she had no preparation for, apparently terrorized people with erratic, unpredictable and childish behavior. And there's even a shopping spree!
No doubt about it: Picking Transvaginal Bob for the ticket would have placed a selfish, abusive, entitled, belittling bully right in the center of Team Romney. But Willard picked somebody else. Maybe the Republicans really did learn something from 2008.
