    So the bodybuilder bronze tanner that Mitt wore on Telemundo didn't go over well with Tim?

    Surely you jest.

    Looks pretty straight forward to me. Looks like you're the one trying to do the twisting. Maybe you should change your name to Chubby Checkers. Ah, probably before your time.

    It's about the timing.

    Yes, it is pretty straight forward.

    Mitt has hit the fan.

    Most here would leave their current job to take one that makes $2MM/year. Of course, I may just be spitballing.

    I don't know; it's just what I learned working in corp fin. "M" represents thousands in that world instead of "K". Do you know the answer? Because I'm curious as to why.

    As Maxie says, I'd guess it's because he got offered a really good job. Point is, he gave a direct explanation of where he was going and why. Any twisting of the circumstances as being negative to the Romney campaign is being done by folks like you.

    Cool! Thanks to everyone who pointed toward the Romans! I'll rep everyone I can for that one.

    Quick question: Isn't the role of a campaign chairperson mostly an honorarium for a surrogate? If Eric Fehrnstrom or Beth Myers made a similar move, I that would be really significant. This one? I think Gov. Pawlenty is looking for a job.

    I guess kinda smart to start looking for a job and accepting one when he started to realize there wouldn't be a Romney cabinet.
