I don't know if that looked better back in the day, but it looks ridiculous now.
While we're talking about odd AMC models, remember the Pacer, so fat and bulbous it resembled an inverted fishbowl? Heavy, noisy and wide, it had almost none of the things you might wish for in a car.

That is a strange looking car, Scott. I'd forgotten about that one.

Fred, I am sorry you are offended by such a funny term. And yes, I know at least two meanings of "tea bag," one a noun and one a verb. I also find it funny that you choose to focus on that one phrase yet decline to address the obvious hypocrisy of certain Republican anti-Romney elements that attack his career in private-equity. I know several millionaire and billionaire private-equity princes who are cringing at the thought of anti-capitalist, populist Republicans coming to power, led by the perpetual bomb-thrower and ultimate hypocrite Newt Gingrich.
What I really want to know is if anybody here ever drove a Gremlin?
I once crossed the country in a Renault Le Car. I was 19 years old. It was quite an adventure. The car broke down in Akron, Ohio.
But Street Smart you must admit: A man with that much money needs a better colorist. What's with the shoe polish on his head? I know he's not 40 years old. He doesn't have to try to make me THINK he is.
When I was growing up, the family next door had a turquoise and white Nash Metropolitan that their four teenage daughters took turns driving. To my young eyes, it was the cutest, most glamourous car in the world, kind of like a Barbie-mobile!
It's right out of central casting that it should have been greenlighted by George Romney, father of our modern-day Ken doll of a candidate. Perfect hair, perfect family, perfect business acumen...that's our Mitt!
He's so retro that I have to say, even though I'm in the minority, I kinda like him in spite of myself. I find him refreshing in some sort of strange, throwback way. But then...full disclosure...I still REALLY like the Nash! You should have SEEN the turquoise model!

I grew up in that area and remember Romney's "brainwashed" statement well.
It's intereresting to think that it was enough to tube a political career when you compare it to some of the outrageous things politicians rebound from these days.

I'm not worried about what Romney or Newt or Paul paid in taxes. I am worried about what i'm going to have to pay in taxes and want to know exactly what they will do to lower it.

I welcome the opportunity to make enough money that paying my taxes really becomes an issue beyond an annoyance.
