Funnimetric

Millions of liberals across the country are flocking to support the Mitt Romney campaign. The reason being cited most often by liberals is Romney's intelligence and articulateness. Blogger Philip Mathewson attempted to explain the phenomenon today on his web site, Progressives for Romney,

Our big problem with Bush was his inability to pronounce words like "nuclear" and he would flub sentences. He just didn't sound smart. Plus, he didn't do things that smart people do like work on crosswords, listen to NPR, or read about architecture-not even Sudoku. And the whole Jesus as his favorite philosopher thing. I mean, what about Bertrand Russell or Sarte? We want somebody who won't just do things, but who talks a lot too.

So, Why Romney?

You know us on the left always go for the smartest person so we analyzed school records and scanned tapes of the candidates for pronunciation errors and decided that Mitt Romney was the smartest candidate.

With him as president, we feel the French will stop making fun of us, which would be a huge victory in foreign policy.
