You'd think they would have learned by now.
Bain Capital. Offshoring of jobs overseas. Cash hidden in island hideaways.
But I guess, as they say, love can be blind.
This article in Forbes describes how the MittWitt stiffed his campaign workers by canceling the campaign credit cards in the middle of the night, leaving them with the hotel bills and the tickets back home.
Some might say that this was a case of the taste of bitter defeat on the part of the MittWitt and his inner circle. Even keeping the cards active just long enough to pay for their rooms for the night, and a ticket back home, would have been a minimally gracious move. But that's not his M.O. I say that this is classic, textbook MittWitt - ruthless efficiency at the expense of those who busted their asses for you. No change in stripes here.
As for the campaign workers, I guess that the only thing they can do now is chalk it up to Tuition at the School of Hard Knocks.

As The Dust Settles...
Some impressions regarding the 2012 campaign, if for no other reason than to finally celebrate the fact that it's freaking over...
>> It's actually quite simple why the MittWitt lost. Remember that rogue's gallery of suits and sayings that passed for the Republican primary field? Let's face it, the money people were always behind the Mitthead, but when it took as long as it did for him to finally secure the nomination against the likes of Bachmann, Cain (9-9-9), the Gingrich, and Rick Perry, it should be a clue that you have a problem. As for his grand Gaffapalooza tour of the UK during the London Olympiad, not to mention his liking of trees to be just the right height, well, that proves one thing that should have stood out like a sore thumb signalling for a ride on the side of the road:
The MittWitt Is A Twit.
>>President Obama may have some additional capital to spend when he is re-inaugurated, but again, that all depends if the House sandbox will be populated by grownups. I wouldn't bet the house...
>>As much as I dislike Governor Chris Christie, I must give him props for working with President Obama instead of against him, in light of Superstorm Sandy. This episode, with the accompanying pictures of what the MSM called their "bromance", probably helped Obama secure tonight's win. They may have also helped Christie in 2016 - let's not kid ourselves, he's going to run.
>>They say that broken clocks are right twice per day. That can be described about Ann Coulter's prediction that if the aforementioned Chris Christie isn't the Repub's nominee, that Mitt will be, and that Mitt will lose. Quite the sage, aren't we Ann?
>>There will likely be cuts coming with the expected Grand Bargain. But, I'm not expecting anything like what Paul Ryan was proposing in his Path To Austerity. ("Prosperity", my ass.)
>>So much for Mitch McConnell's determination to make Obama a one-term President. So much for thinking of the American people as idiots. Well, lesson learned, perhaps? When you talk down to the American people and treat them like idiots...this is what you get.
More later.
