Man in Mitt Romney mask robs Virginia bank

[Matt_in_STL]

A man wearing what appears to be a Mitt Romney mask robbed a Virginia bank yesterday -- the same bank hit by a robber in a Hillary Clinton mask two years ago.

But that's not the only reason the FBI is calling the holdup unusual.

The robbery at a Wells Fargo in Sterling was not the standard grab-and-go. The gun-wielding robber, wearing the mask and a Florida State sweatshirt, got money from one teller, but apparently that wasn't enough. He went teller to teller until he took from all five.

Police went to the Party City behind the bank to see if anyone bought a mask there Thursday.

I think the first step in this investigation is to make sure Mitt Romney has an alibi. We have all seen the pictures of him since he lost the election - Disneyland, gas station, etc. - and he has looked one step away from losing it in every picture. This might be a cry for help from the man himself and not really a mask.

with a Positraction rear differential.
