Yesterday Mitt Romney suspended his campaign for president due to his realization that he had zero chance to be president. In the beginning, I wasn’t a fan of Mitt Romney, but after I watched him more his arrogant dickishness really grew on me. Unlike the other candidates, when asked whether Ronald Reagan would endorse him, Romney did not hesitate for a moment before saying “absolutely.” Unfortunately, despite Rush Limbaugh’s endorsement, Romney was simply unable to capture enough delegates to continue.

Yesterday, Romney gave a stirring concession speech where he threw around loads of his ‘wisdom’ on various topics. Here’s a clip of last night’s The Daily Show where Jon Stewart shows some highlights of Romney’s white flag speech. One of my favorites is Romney saying that if we’re not careful, the United States will become the “France of the 21st century.” Jon Stewart had to dig deep to come up with a retort for that one saying “Isn’t France the France of the 21st century?”

Anyways, I am honestly going to miss Mitt Romney on the campaign trail. John McCain has this all but locked up and frankly, he’s rather boring. Mike Huckabee is entertaining when he’s trying to be but that doesn’t count. Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama? Yeah, there’s good material there but it’s just not solid Mitt Romney stuff. Romney was funny just for being himself, which is a total dick.
