MittBott 2.018 Back And Ready To Represent Utah, Inevitably Offend It

Screenshot from campaign video. They cropped it, not us.

Willard Mittens Romneyton-Rafalca III formally announced his bid for the US Senate today with a cheesy video talking about what a very Utah kind of guy he is, because if anyone's forgotten it since the 2012 presidential election, he personally saved the Winter Olympics sometime before the approximately 4.3 million grandchildren in his ad were born. While the ad never mentions Romney's frequent disagreements with Donald Trump (or his frequent toadying to Donald Trump), the goal for the ad is to remind Utah voters that although he's not really from Utah, Mitt Romney is one of them, kind of, because he has "Utah Values," not Washington Values (and certainly not Massachusetts Values. Why would you even mention Massachusetts?)

I am running for United States Senate to serve the people of Utah and bring Utah's values to Washington. pic.twitter.com/TDkas6gD2p
