Certainly if the more dedicated BoSox fans were to find out it might cost him a few votes from those in the Bay State....sssssh... there's an article in the WaPoo about it.
Mitt, the man who bought Iowa, has disclosed that his "blind trusts" are rife with the kind of good, solid, capitalist investments that will make both the slightly left-wing Marx and Lenin and Big Daddy Dobson cringe.
Now that the assets of his blind trusts are public, GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney is facing lots of questions about where he made his recent millions--on companies that perform stem cell research, run casinos and do business in Sudan, for instance. The die-hard Boston Red Sox fan even ended up with an investment in the reviled New York Yankees' cable network.

Romney's trusts also recently unloaded numerous stocks--valued at between $150,000 and $1,165,000--in casino operators MGM-Mirage and Harrah's and gambling equipment companies such as Boyd's Gaming Corp. Many Christian conservatives--as well as leaders of Romney's Mormon faith--oppose gambling as a moral blight.
Okay, can I be the one to ask, how if these are "blind" trusts do they get the "word" to unload politically untenable investments?
Oh hell, maybe they're blind in the same way that his kids are soldiers serving in Southwest Asia.
