"BREAKING: Jeb Bush endorses the Etch-A-Sketch"

[ProSense]

Can Mitt Romney erase his right-wing positions like an Etch-A-Sketch? Twitter doesn't think so.

by Jed Lewison

Earlier this morning, Mitt Romney's top communications adviser compared Romney to an Etch-A-Sketch, saying Romney could erase his right-wing positions once the general election begins. Twitter hilarity ensued:

<...>

I'm trying to think of a worse simile for Romney campaign to use than an Etch A Sketch. ..... Nope, there isn't one.

Remember when Romney would win a primary and he or his campaign would say something stupid the next day? #goodtimes

2. After the Etch-A-Sketch erase, he'll need a process for stating new positions....

That's where the campaign's Magic 8 Ball comes into play.
