Republican Video Fight: Mitt Romney Runs from Bears, Ronald Reagan, Sarah Palin
Thursday, May 7, 2009 at 5:03
We've been letting the Republican Party get on with its internal squabbling, but this latest scrap was too good to go unmentioned.
2008 GOP Presidential candidate Mitt Romney got a bit lippy about Sarah Palin's recent appearance on Time magazine's list of most influential people: ""Was that the issue on the most beautiful people or the most influential people?"
Devoted Palinists, rather than taking the "most beautiful" compliment, hit back with this video:

Respect is due. The video is a throwback to Ronald Reagan's mega-successful 1984 campaign video where he took down the Soviet Bear (apparently there was a Cold War going on):

And it's also a parody of Romney's 2008 campaign video "Leadership":
