Mitt Romney (R-Am I the Nominee Yet?) celebrating his Illinois primary victory, compliments of the Boston Herald’s front page (via the Newseum’s Today’s Front Pages):
Listen – I find Romney as annoying as the next guy (assuming the next guy isn’t Newt Gingrich). But making him look like a cardboard clownface you throw a beanbag into?
That just . . . actually, feels sort of right.
Campaign Outsider 
The mouth and eyes, yeah, not so flattering. But the hair! Romney’s hair has NEVER looked that unflattering! I wonder if the Herald washed out the photo a bit.
But now that Romney has the thing sewn up, watch for the pivot!

“FEHRNSTROM: Well, I think you hit a reset button for the fall campaign. Everything changes. It’s almost like an Etch A Sketch. You can kind of shake it up and restart all over again.”
Will conservatives care?
You gotta say, Stephen – the Romneyites are always willing to drop the veil.
Pivot? Pivot?
Like the way Obama pivots?
Looks like the Mitt-ster is on a roll. Why _any_ Bush should have influence after the dismal performances of 41 & 43 is beyond me, but Jeb just endorsed him, replete with the standard delusional pabulum about fiscal conservatism/job creation:
“I’ve endorsed @MittRomney. It’s time for GOP to unite & take our message of fiscal conservatism & job creation to all voters.”
Remember, Alan – W was Fredo, Jeb was Michael.
Yes, by signing the “Stand Your Ground” act while Governator of Florider in 2005 to curry favor with the NRA, Jeb has created jobs for morticians from Jacksonville to Key West. (The most famous denizen of Key West offed himself as we all know. His cats survive however).
