Toby Nails Mitt Romney

Me and my boy Toby, three years old, in the car on our way to daycare this morning:
Toby: Daddy, what does Mitt Romney look like?

Me: Well, he’s tall, has a big head, gray hair neatly combed, he always wears a suit, and he’s white.

Toby: That’s why he is mad.

    Last week, I was talking with my son about other elections, and I couldn’t remember who had run against Clinton in 1996. He looked at me with a huge smile spreading across his face and said, “You mean in another ten years, I won’t even be able to remember Mitt Romney’s name?” I told him that was perfectly true, and we were both filled with happiness.

    I agree. Whenever I have to wear a suit, I’m usually mad too…
