Romney suspends campaign…

February 07th, 2008 | Category: Politics

There is a reason for this prejudice. I have found in driving in Maine that Prius owners have adopted that “I am helping the planet so I can drive like an idiot” mentality. I even watched a Prius owner swipe a parking space from an ole lady while I was in Maine.

Even have come up with a few bumperstickers.
