Mittens: "How about that debate last night? Wasn’t that fun? Battling was fun, and battle was won."

No, I'm not making that up.

And yes, I know it looks like a bad Dr. Seuss parody.

But it's really what Romney said:

Romney: ‘battle was won’ in last night’s debate
By Bobby Caina Calvan | Globe Staff
January 28, 2012


CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- Mitt Romney arrived here flying high from his well-received performance at last night’s debate in Jacksonville, and he couldn’t hide his exuberance.

“How about that debate last night? Wasn’t that fun?” he bellowed into a crowded aerospace manufacturing facility.

“Battling was fun, and battle was won,” he said to applause.

Romney’s renewed confidence was on full display. He repeated oft-used shots against President Obama, saying the State of the Union address Tuesday night was a reminder of the president’s failures.

he would realize that nobody wants him to occupy the WH. Money does not buy all things Mitt, and it is about time you faced reality.

Romney: Oh yeah? Well, you can just take a long walk off a short pier."

Newt: Make me

Romney: I don't make monkeys, I only train them.

Newt: "I'm rubber, you're glue, bounces off me, sticks to you."

Personally, I think a half dead saguaro cactus is more fit to be president than Jan Brewer. I am glad she is not the governor of my state.
