If Mitt wins the Republican nomination for president, be prepared to hear the caption repetedly(ha). In a rare display of his true feelings, that was his reply in a debate to the charge that he had hired illegals to work on one of his properties.
When the Boston Globe ran an article about his lawn care service which was employing illegals, he went to them and said they had to quit the practice. Not because it was wrong, not because it was illegal. Rather, because he was running for office, for Pete's sake.
I think it was Michael Kinsley that said a gaffe is when a politician accidentally says what he's thinking.

Who's your daddy?????
This is too funny, turns out the only contributor to the PAC to defeat Gov. Beshear is David William's father in law. He had previously tried to keep his identity secret, but a judge barred the commercials because the donor names weren't disclosed.
FRANKFORT, Ky. -- The father-in-law of the Republican candidate for Kentucky governor is the only contributor to a political group currently facing a restraining order.Franklin County Judge Thomas Wingate issued the order restraining the group from running the ads because no individuals were listed, as is required under Kentucky law.Restoring America responded by submitting a new report to the Kentucky Registry of Election Finance.According to that report, GOP gubernatorial candidate David Williams' father-in-law, Terry Stephens, gave Restoring America $1,365,000 and is the only contributor.The group has spent all the money on ads criticizing Williams' opponent, Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear.In a statement Stephens released Wednesday, he said, "My financial commitment to support the conservative values of Restoring America is in response to the devastation this country and state are experiencing under the leadership of liberals like Barack Obama."With Stephens' name now disclosed as Restoring America's sole contributor, the group has filed an emergency motion to dissolve the restraining order on its ads.Wingate will hold a hearing on the restraining order at 3:30 p.m. Thursday.
