Kenyan Mom Names Newborn Twins Barack Obama And Mitt Romney, Seriously

http://blog.al.com/wire/2012/11/kenya_woman_gives_birth_to_twi.html

SIAYA, Kenya - On the day the United State re-elected President Barack Obama, a Kenya woman gave birth to a set of twins she named Barack and Mitt.

Millicent Owuor, 20, delivered the twins not far from Obama’s ancestral home village of Kogelo where celebrations were going on, according to Kenya's Standard.

"I named the first twin Barack and the second one Mitt," said Awuor, a housewife.

for historians in the far away future. It would be so easy to provide mythological spin, but in the far away future no one will remember who Mitt Romney was.
