Romney Celebrates nomination under a Cayman Islands flag.
Gov. Mitt Romney’s campaign toasted its top donors Wednesday aboard a 150-foot yacht flying the flag of the Cayman Islands.
The floating party, hosted by a Florida developer on his yacht “Cracker Bay,” was one of a dozen exclusive events meant to nurture those who have raised more than $1 million for Romney’s bid.
“I think it’s ironic they do this aboard a yacht that doesn’t even pay its taxes,” said a woman who lives aboard a much smaller boat moored at the St. Petersburg Municipal Marina.
Romney’s Cayman-based investments have come under fire during the campaign.
I don’t know, maybe he just got back from visiting his money? I couldn’t come up with a more perfect metaphor if I tried: Mitt Romney, toasting his Republican nomination under a Cayman Islands flag. That’s what you call your “patriotism.”
At least, if you’re Republican.
I’m sorry. The boat’s name is ‘Cracker Bay’?! Really? Really.
CRACKER BAY?! That is the most accurate fucking name I’ve ever seen.
I hope the Obama campaign goes to town with all the ammo Mittens is just handing them.
