The Mitt multiplier
Washington, D.C.,'s Wonkette blog is predicting a lackluster response to John McCain's fundraising efforts in Utah, despite having the president in tow:
Ever since John McCain pissed all over Mitt Romney in a debate, and even before then, Mormons haven't taken kindly to the foul-mouthed, unhandsome, twice-married atheist grumpus. So it's no surprise that McCain might get a lukewarm reception at a couple of Utah fundraisers — even when they feature big draws like George Bush and Mitt Romney.
Including Utah might-as-well-be-native son Mitt in the mix, however, is a different story, Wonkette says, and the $70K per couple McCain-Mitt fundraiser this evening "will do just fine."
