Caucus-day snapshots
At Wednesday night's pre-caucus rally for supporters, Mitt Romney searched for a strong word to describe his reaction to Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards' assertion that there are two Americas that need to be united. Whenever he hears that phrase, Romney said, "I'm tempted to offer an expletive like baloney."
Young politician
Romney's grandson, Parker Mitt, is getting some political experience on the campaign trail. According to the 18-month-old's father, Craig Romney, Parker Mitt likes to walk down the aisle of airplanes and shake the hands of his fellow passengers. "People say he's going to run for president someday. They have no idea," Craig Romney told a Mason City crowd gathered at the local airport Wednesday to cheer on his father.
Mitt "surrogate"
Hairy situation
Romney spoke Thursday morning to employees of the Principal Financial Group, Iowa's Fortune 500 company, about the campaign. "Tensions are getting high and comments are being made that are really quite questionable," Romney said, noting he'd heard the chairman of GOP rival Mike Huckabee's campaign had said he'd "like to knock my teeth out. My only comment on that is, 'Don't touch the hair .' " The downtown Des Moines audience burst out laughing.
