I've only heard of one Mitt in my life! And one Barack, I guess! In a few hours, this will all be over!

per Google search: " His full name is Willard Mitt Romney. Wikipedia says he was named after his father's cousin Milton "Mitt" Romney, who was a quarterback for the Chicago Bears in the 1920s "

I guess if I were named Willard Milton, I'd go with 'Mitt' too. :D

Thank you, I can tell Joe that now, he also asked about the name Barack but then said he was allowed to have an unusual name because he was born in Hawaii!!? Children's logic. Well, at least he watches the news, not every 7 year old here will have known there was an election.

It's all over, now your TV and news stations get back to normal, well at least once they've digested it all.

There is no normal.

Now the news stations will kick back, have a post prandial smoke after the orgy of political attention, and start yelling again. Heck, I think I missed the kicking back.

Didn't it remind you of a football game last night? The excited newscasters, talking about the odds, and the strategy....
