Tone deaf candidate

Myth Romney seems to have emerged from his recent unemployment: he plans to quadruple the size of his seaside California estate.

By now, you must also have heard all the obvious cracks: the La Jolla manse will be adding left and right wings, complete with changing rooms. The dog house will be strapped to the roof. The house is ideally situated to take advantage of the labor force needed to care for the lawn.

“They want to enlarge their two-bedroom home because with five married sons and 16 grandchildren, it is inadequate for their needs,” the official explained.

Think he'll have a problem getting a mortgage?

With exquisite timing, word of the expansion comes as Romney prepares for a fund-raiser on Martha's Vineyard, you know that island in one of the Mittser's home states that Barack Obama is taking heat for vacationing on.

Is there any wonder why the GOP keeps embracing Michele Bachmann and Rick Perry while waiting for the Alaska/Arizona savior to emerge?

Maybe Myth and Sarah Palin can compare their latest real estate forays in debates on the housing crisis?
