It's very
rare that I sit down to read a magazine but the exceptional occasion arose
recently, and I came across something quite amusing that I wanted to share. Had
to share, really. It hails from the
February issue of Vanity Fair. They published the results of a poll that included
the question, what is Mitt Romney's real first name? The choices were:
Mitt
Mitchell
Milton
Willard
Gromit
Mittens
Don't Know
About 20 percent opted for Mitt, another 20 percent guessed Mitchell. Over 40 percent took the easy way out and admitted that they didn't know. 2 percent guessed Gromit, another 2 percent guessed Mittens. Just typing Mittens makes me laugh out loud. Anyway, his real name is Willard. If you would like to see the full breakdown of answers by political party, it's here.
Be honest. Are you secretly hoping it's Mittens, too?
