If you have two cars parked in your yard because your garage only holds five cars, you just might be a Romney! Go! ---

If you go out and buy a Porsche because you just didn’t feel like driving the Mercedes today, you might be a Romney! Not something Romney said, but something a rich member at a golf club I worked at actually did… he was annoyed because the Porsche dealership wouldn’t even address him when he showed up in his maid’s station wagon, so had to go home and _drive the Mercedes anyways_ in order to go buy the Porsche. ---
