Romney not riding the buses during his "bus tour."

[Botany]

He has 4 or 5 buses that look the same so he can fly from place to
place and hop on the bus for the last miles to the event.

<The campaign leased multiple matching buses that will be pre-positioned along the route.
“Three or four Romney buses will be leapfrogging around,” Gorka said.>

1. Somehow, I am not surprised.

He is a fake.

[longship]

2. He's probably not the first to do that.

But regardless. Book-um, Danno!

[Bozita]

3. IIRC, former Sen. Fred Thompson did the same thing using beater pickups instead of fancy new buses

[Beaverhausen]

4. Grifterella did the same as I recall

[MichiganVote]

5. Its just so last election you know.

6. Why not just rent five department store dummies with matching Romney heads

Wasn't there a Republican Senate candidate who pretended to drive a pick up truck to speaking events but, as soon as he was beyond the public eye, he switched to some mundane sedan, all for the purpose of trying to deceive the people into believing he was a regular guy? I'm thinking it was maybe Scott Brown of Mass. No?

9. Because their charisma would upstage him.

19. oh thank you so much I really needed a laugh right now that was great! n/t

[Aerows]

21. That's DUzy worthy

[ashling]

15. Because they are afraid

HBO would put the heads on pikes after he loses the election.

7. It only looks that way

It's a shell game where they switch around the 4 or 5 Mitt Romneys.

[jberryhill]

8. That would explain why they have different positions

[XemaSab]

17. Win!

[oldhippydude]

22. you can however tell which bus Willard is on

the one with the kennel on the roof..

[EC]

10. Palin did that too. n/t

[applegrove]

11. LOL!

[pacalo]

12. I had been wondering. I just knew he couldn't be sleeping on the bus...

I figured he rode in the bus during the day but dropped off at a Marriott for the night.

13. Mitt Romney is the very textbook definition of the elitist the Republicans claim they hate.

[treestar]

14. Phony in everything

That's Mittwit for ya.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

16. Is this in case highwaymen might hold him up?

[tilsammans]

18. I'm sure he barely speaks to the bus drivers, . . .

They're just the lowly hired help, doncha know.

[Politicalboi]

20. Those other buses are for his

Other wives.

[bluestateguy]

23. Nobody will ever be able to recreate the magic of the Clinton-Gore bus tour in 1992

Some things should only be done once.

[Earth_First]

24. In this instance, I cannot find fault solely because it's 'Rmoney'

PLENTY of candidates make multiple stops in a single state in one day using air travel to make this even possible...

This isn't specific to Romney in this situation.

[Botany]

26. Hey, stop posting facts

[williesgirl]

27. Gorgeous pit!

[rurallib]

25. one for every house.
