The Man Who Would Be King
Taegan Goddard at Political Wire (Go the original site if you want to look at the full-size .png files. They're much too megabyte intensive to load here.) made a priceless catch the day after the election that shows what an utter delusional arrogant prick Mitt Romney truly is. Apparently, the Romney campaign created a presidential transition site that outlines how a Romney presidency would've started in the event the American electorate completely went batshit insane. The site was immediately taken down but not before Goddard took screenshots. This is perfectly in keeping with a guy who went to his "victory" party with just an acceptance speech and not a concession speech.
All that's missing is the word "inauguration" substituted for "coronation", which, perfectly in keeping with Romney's furtiveness and elitism, would've been in a private ceremony on January 20th.
Because Willard the 1st was jumping the gun, he was forced to use for this inauguration .jpeg a picture from President's Obama's first inauguration in 2009 or, as we in the reality-based community say, "the preview of his second inauguration in 2013."
Here's a shot of Willard looking very presidential and reading something in front of a painting of a dead white guy, no doubt in reality a report from Bain Capital telling him they just made another cool $100,000,000 by outsourcing a few hundred US jobs to China after bankrupting the company with bloated management consulting fees.
This man makes me physically ill. I refuse to acknowledge his very physical existence and it is extremely unlikely that I will ever refer to him by name again.

I understand he spent $25K on fireworks too, he was so confident that he was going to win. Must be tough when you lose not only the state you governed, but the state your father was a beloved Governor of and the state your running mate came from.
I love it when I can laugh my ass off.
Schadenfreude's a many splendored thing, ain't it?
How much do you want to bet that Republican operatives would surround the White House and Naval Observatory on the night of November 6 shouting for Obama and Biden, respectively, to vacate the premises if Romney had won? They did something similar to the Observatory in 2000.
I still find myself astonished at the almost total disengagement from reality I'm hearing & seeing from the Right this election/post-election season. How can anyone run a campaign against women, minorities, gays, etc. and think that somehow there are going to be enough old white men who hate to elect them? I guess their policies aren't the only thing that are from the 1890s.
