So while I was in Jackson, MS last week I attended the Mitt Romney rally which was held at the Mississippi Farmers Market. As the former Massachusetts Governor was being introduced, I couldn't help but notice the very strategic layout of the room.
A green John Deere tractor was placed in the background. It was perfectly placed so that the cameras would capture it as the Governor paraded back and forth. The room was indeed full, and the Governor of Mississippi Phil Bryant was also in attendance.
So as Romney walked out in his denim jeans, he began his speech with an epic FAIL! Memo to Governor Romney: A person from the North is never supposed to come to the South, and say, ''Y'all'' - Never! Second memo: Never come to Mississippi and talk grits when you wouldn't know grits if grits hit you in the chops.
Anyway, so as I sat in my chair and listened to the ever so familiar talking points I noticed some of the people in the room were rolling their eyes. This was in response to the Governor's comments regarding cheese grits. One big reason Senator Santorum swept Mississippi and Alabama is the fact that he just keeps it real. Third memo to Gov Romney: Stay true to who you are!
Senator Santorum came to the South and he kept it real. He spoke from his heart, and he connected with the folks who have been eating grits and riding John Deere tractors for their entire lives.
You see, Rick Santorum doesn't need to prop a John Deere tractor behind him because he is true to whom he is, and he speaks from the heart, not talking points.
This is one of the many reasons I support Rick Santorum for President.
