...and it didn't take very long. Dogs against Romney.

I think stuff like this will backfire on the liberals. People hear a funny story about how Romney put his dog in a carrier on the top of his car, and then hear about how PETA wants to nail him to the wall for it.

At least for me, my very next thought is "so what will I be nailed to the wall for if those guys are ever in charge?"

On the other hand, if cats could vote, Mitt would be a shoe in.

David,
don't discount the value liberals place on their animal famly members. If the dogs tell them not to vote for Romney, it just validates their thinking about being, living and voting liberal.

Personally I have a rabid wolverine as a pet. He's telling me to vote for McCain. But I'm pretty sure the rabies is screwing with his mind.

They shot "Old Yeller" for less.

I don't think it is funny to strap a dog in a car-carrier on the roof of a car. Do you really think it is funny?

In any case Romney has little chance of securing the nomination, let alone winning, IMHO, based on the belief of most Christians that Mormons aren't Christians, even though Mormons insist they are. Note this is different from say, being Jewish which doesn't have the inherent problem. See this for example:

And Judaism doesn't exist to Islam. Christianity recognizes other religions, but as such they are not as good because they're wrong somehow. Ah, religious warfare, so much fun.

Mac, before you assume what I was talking about, read the article.

I guess I'm missing the "horror" of a dog in a car carrier on the roof of a moving vehicle. My dogs used to ride with their heads out the window. When I had two dogs I had to open both back windows. If the carrier was reversed so the wind blast was not blowing into the carrier, WTF is the big deal?

I don't think it is funny - I think it is a pointless story, that by being overhyped by PETA actually works against PETA. Because if you read the real story, 25 years ago Romney strapped the family dog to the roof of a car, built a little windshield for him so he would be comfortable, and let him breath the fresh air.

To me, that is going above and beyond - but I don't like pets. I do realize, of course, that the average liberal will not bother to find the facts and will just use the facts that they are fed to confirm their initial bias - but then they weren't going to vote for Romney anyway, were they? To me that is the Democrats biggest weakness - they only care about themselves, so they can't get beyond themsleves to see what is important to everyone else.

Is this to say the Romney campaign is going to the dogs?

I was pointing out a parallel to your comment.
