Maybe Mitt has already been President

I'm trying to get used to the weirdness of quantum mitt. If you can hold a position for years and then retroactively not have held it, that seems like it would create a vacuum in time... someone else in the past has to be dragged into the suddenly vacant position in the past.

Given Bain's size, I suspect that thousands or millions of people's resumes morphed the morning Mitt retroactively left Bain. Who knows... maybe I was the CEO of Bain.

I think Romney may well have been elected President in 2000, but when the Iraq War went so badly that he retroactively became un-president and Bush was swept back into the role retroactively. All the history books morph to the new reality and none are the wiser.

Or perhaps Mitt is already President in 2026.

He is indeed a time traveling do-gooder. He is honoring us with his offer to lead our country, so we need to take a clue from the Special Theory of Relativity and lay off the Bain issue.

raided what $$$ he could as the world economy was crashing, and then reappeared back on his boat on the lake.

-OR-

He he's like Sam Beckett in Quantum Leap and appears inside someone else in history retroactively!
