WaPo picked up Rmoney's fake bake that DU started and linked to us...

A member of my PostPartisan posse — a few self-appointed people around the country who are kind enough to serve as my eyes and ears outside the Washington bubble — has alerted me that folks are buzzing about a possible dark secret out of Coral Gables, Fla., about Mitt Romney. Why did the Republican presidential nominee appear to be downright fake-baked at the Univision forum last night?

The Democratic Underground got the ball rolling late last night. And I have to admit, the former Massachusetts governor’s orangish hue looks positively Boehner-esque. But take a look at Romney’s Sept. 9th appearance on “Meet The Press.”

You know, the media could have very well started its own orange-glo stories. Lazy media trolling left-leaning messageboards picking up baskets of goodies!!

or is it El Naranjo?



Which is the correct way to write it in Spanish? I took German in h.s. about a thousand years ago.

How she could ever believe that look is attractive is beyond me. And what is up with her lips?! On the left, they're outlined with a thick Sharpie and on the right they're missing.
