Romney fundraising pitch: Chance at a meal with Ann
(CNN) – She is her husband's not-so-secret weapon on the campaign trail, and now Mitt Romney's presidential bid is looking to raise some campaign cash by offering a meal with his wife, Ann.
A Tuesday fundraising email from the candidate asks supporters to donate, promising entry "for a chance to share a meal with my lovely wife."

The reelection campaign of President Barack Obama has traded food and face time for donations several times this cycle, including offering dinners with Obama alone and others including his wife, Michelle.
Romney himself marked the Massachusetts holiday of Patriots Day earlier this month by bringing supporters to a Red Sox baseball game.
The former Massachusetts governor raised $12.6 million for the primary in March, and ended the month with $10.1 million cash on hand.

How about sleep.
Oh yea, I D much rather be hangin out wit da Tabbys then havin a few cold ones with Clooney & The Prez! PLEASE!!!
o boy, a dream of a life time, NOT
There is not a more awkward setting possible. Having dinner with Romoney and his wife would be so werid. He's so awkward just standing upright.
Yeesh. No thanks.
Copy cat. Get your own ideas.
OBAMA/BIDEN/FIRST LADY MICHELLE 2012!!!
Gurgly, yes, I love that better. I can only imagine what I would talk to Ann about anyway.
Will she cook it or have one of the hired help do it?
Sounds like a page out of the Obama playbook. Does this clown have any ideas of his own? Lunch with Ann? Only if I get to ride in her Cadillac. Whew.
I think this is the action of a "Pim".
What's next? Raffling her off? Can they throw in Seamus' old bowl and dog bed as an incentive?
No thanks. I'd rather have a beer with Barack and Michelle.
Yuck to the Mormon crap.
Only if I could what her eat hog jaws, collard greens and corn bread and oh yeah those cookies her husband couldn't bring himself to eat last week!
This is not going to go as well as planned, TeamRomney. Trust me.
Right. It's only dinner, I get that. But cant shake the creepy feeling that this guy will do anything to win.
You've heard the term, "He'd sell his grandmother for a shot at the White House..." Well – include his wife in that category, too.
This idea is laughable at best . . . why, why and why would anyone be excited about having dinner with the new Ken and Barbie dolls. There are no workable parts, no core, as it were. With out any paints on, you can't tell Ken from Barbie and she appears to be cold and hard to the touch. Boring, as in nap time. how about nap time with the yawns!
Pimping out the wife.....NICE.....
This idea was probably thought out by Romney himself! He is a genius!
George Clooney or Ann!?!?! This is SO hard to pick! (hehehe)
Can a Bishop do ANYTHING original, Tabby Nackle Copy cat. Yo Clooney & Prez, can I get a cold one all up in her???
what with his rude "cookie" comments, nobody would want to have a meal with Mitsubishi. so, he's offering his wife!!!
Hell Yea, I want my majic undewear & a galaxy of my own!!! WHat No cold beer???? OH HELL NO, Im otta here!!!

Another ORIGINAL idea from Willard I guess.
Republicans have no one to run against a president who they accuse of doing such a "bad job". I only wish I could do such a "bad job" as the president has.
A meal with Ann to talk about what? How hard it is being a housewife who lives at the spas, rides expensive horses and lives in several mansions? Are Americans really this stupid? Sadly, I'm afraid they are.
Dadgum spell correction
so what's next?? He gonna pimp out his sons??
