Only in America ...

Hey, Mitt Romney's millions have actually bought an election (the Iowa Straw Polls held yesterday) and it's 100% legal and above the board.

I had never really paid attention to those stupid polls in Iowa until now, but I thoroughly agree with John McCain's and Rudy Giuliani's decision to stay a million miles from such out and out unamerican bullshit. How such crap can even make the daily newspapers is beyond me, but any semblance to reality is clearly lost in a 'poll" that is based on entry fees (really!) and expensive bus rides (paid for by the candidates, it seems).

But for the record ... and to show that Mediawingnuts is a true wing nut after all, Romney "earned" (bought) 31.5 percent of the vote, with former Gov. Mike Huckabee, R-Ark., coming in second with 18.1 percent, and Sen. Sam Brownback, R-Kan., placing third with 15.3 percent.

I guess it does test a candidates' ability to earn/steal money enough to play the silly game, but for me .... YUCK!!!
