Expanding Romney Mansion Story Takes Off

The San Diego Union-Tribune scored a huge coup over the weekend with its story about Mitt Romney’s expanding San Diego mega-mansion. Romney wants to quadruple the size of his family’s $12 million house. Because, at 3,009-square-feet, it was “inadequate for their needs.”

Naturally, every snarky blog in the universe picked up on the story. Way to be in touch with the prevailing zeitgeist of thrift, buddy. See, it’s OK to be a rich asshole in politics.
