Public Policy Polling polled pretty publicly , preferring poignant probes pertaining to...Ohio. They asked a question during that polling - namely, who was more responsible for Osama bin Laden's death: Barack Obama or Mitt Romney?
Fifteen percent of Ohio Republicans said Mitt Romney .
In what some (my colleague Tim Murphy) have called "the greatest thing ever," a full 15 percent of Ohio Republicans surveyed said Romney deserved more credit than the president. Another 47 percent said they were "unsure."
....Well, then.
There is only one proper response to this finding, which is our announcement that we will shortly be selling "Mitt Romney: History's Greatest Warrior" figures, which will include, among other things:
Mitt Romney leading his elephant army against the Roman Empire.
Mitt Romney singlehandedly stopping the Trail of Tears by turning it into the Trail of Hugs and Lemonade. ("Lemon. Wet. No Genocide.")
Mitt Romney stabbing Adolf Hitler through the sternum with his limited edition plasma time lance. (First 500 orders only, all further orders get regular steel lance standard with all Romney figures.)

Oh great, but if I suggest that half of our citizens are too stupid to be allowed to vote, somebody's sure to write "Say, you know who else thought his citizens were too stupid to be allowed to vote?" and I don't think I would like the comparison. Sheesh.
This was,perhaps, an excessively playful question. I suspect they'd have gotten similar results if the choices were President Obama and Bigfoot.
