This should have voting for his SS code name.

Favorite I've heard so far: Weather Vane.

Code name: "Skidmark"

SnakeLee: Maybe - just maybe - this has something to do with Mitt winning Florida in a landslide? Outside chance?

You couldn't be more wrong. Everything in this election is motivated by pizza.

My theory? Romney scored Papa John's coupons for the Secret Service.

'Florida Belives'? Is this another one of those 'facts don't matter if you believe hard enough' moments?

FTFA According to a federal law enforcement officials Romney's campaign, which has long traveled with private security of its own, did request Secret Service protection.

Is that English? What is "a federal law enforcement officials Romney's campaign"?

I lol when I think of the phrase "President Mittens," but then I realize how stupid the American people are and how that could actually happen. Then I get a sad.

Romney will become the only current Republican candidate with Secret Service protection.

For he is... the One.

Herman Cain became the first candidate to receive Service protection, in November, but he ended his candidacy in December.

Why only Herman Cain?

What could it possibly have been about Herman Cain showing up at a gathering of loyal Republicans that would give the Secret Service the heebie jeebies like that?

Okay, now I got it. they we're afraid one of his nutty exes were gonna show up and throw a shoe.

But wait, wouldn't they have also had to protect Newt too?

Something's not adding up here.

/Oh yeah, hellasnark.

You choose now.

Open wide -- Romney's coming

Car_Ramrod: This should have voting for his SS code name.

Favorite I've heard so far: Weather Vane.

I'm going for "Silver Spoon"

I'm going with "Fortunate Son".

Here comes the kevlar magic underwear.

I'd go with Weather Cock:.

"Stormin' Mormon"

Mitt+Wife

Donny and Marie

I wouldn't be surprised if Newt were to pay someone to fire off a couple of blanks in one of his crowds just so he'd get protection, too.
Romney gettin' it before him must burn him up!

Call him Plastic Man!

better than president newt

Sounds reasonable, I believe this is the tipping point where there are only about three candidates with a real shot at being actual contenders to the point where assassins are a possibility (Willard, Barack, and Newt).

I mean, all the campaigns from Ron Paul to whoever's going for the American Communist Party this year have probably filed the request, but this seems like a good point for the service to actually grant a couple.

Those gunslingers better do a good job.

I cannot help but think -- as it's already been mentioned -- that one of Neuticle's slack jawed shoelickers just might take a pot shot at Mittens.

Much better than President Santorum...

"I reject that number completely, that people die in America because of lack of health insurance. People die in America because people die in America. And people make poor decisions with respect to their health and their healthcare. And they don't go to the emergency room or they don't go to the doctor when they need to. " - Rick Santorum, Dec. 6, 2011

Oh ladies... get the fark back in the kitchen:
"In far too many families with young children, both parents are working, when, if they really took an honest look at the budget, they might find they don't both need to....The radical feminists succeeded in undermining the traditional family and convincing women that professional accomplishments are the key to happiness" (2005)

God yes, protect the man. We don't need a martyr.

Dum Dum?

/Short for Dum dum dum dum dum.

Can this possibly be twisted into a political issue?

The Secret Service thinks his candidacy has reached the point where he requires protection. I think this is an issue where any sane person would defer to the experts and move on. Done. Over.

I can't feed myself on hope, so I choose to have money? Like seriously this is a hard decision for you?
