Now that the primary race is officially over, we are prepared to announce Romney's new election season nickname. Discarding the former nickname, "Mittens", we move now a fresh start, a new adventure, to "R Money".
Well, no. "Mittens" speaks to a harmless and playful capacity that we here at Electric Muffin Vanguard feel he has lost in this primary, and we wanted something that spoke to his spirit of unfettered capitalism, the free market, and trickling down.
The only problem with "Rmoney" - as playfully appropriate as it is - is that it sounds similar to "Harmony". Which is a fine thing to invoke if we're talking about the Buffyverse vampire, but it's a peculiarly inappropriate sentiment for this master of deceit.
Is he my nemesis? I think the accented second syllable alleviates most of the confusion. Does 'harmony' evoke too closely 'I'm a uniter, not a divider'?
I agree that R Money is quite appropriate, especially given the recent misspelling of "Amercia" on his mobile application. Switching the order of certain letters is apparently no big deal when one is as awesome and powerful as he is.
Well, his republican predecessor, G-Bu, also showed a certain.... arrogant disregard for facts. When you have Truth, facts can be problematic but are easily dismissed.
I was waiting for someone to tie together those two tyops. Ever since Insane Anglo Warlord, I've been amused by presidential anagrams - the more because I'm so hopelessly terrible at them.
