#FutureMittJokes has lefties gleeful over ‘priceless’ race-baiting; Conservatives hijack
http://twitter.com/#!/SharonBYang/status/239064169209528320
When you’ve been dealt a bad hand, you can still play the race card. At least that’s the strategy liberals subscribe to. After Mitt Romney cracked a birth certificate joke earlier today, the Left experienced nothing short of a major meltdown. Bereft of any rational thought, they decided to birth a ludicrous hashtag game, #FutureMittJokes.
A handful miraculously managed to keep race out of it:
Hey don't blame me for going birther. I was just getting back at Trump for stealing my, "You're fired" line #futuremittjokes

No one can accuse me of not knowing how to hide my money in the Cayman Islands or Swiss Banks to dodge paying taxes on it. #futuremittjokes

Get it? Because Mitt’s a closet Nazi!
Conservatives weren’t about to let lefties get away with their garbage-spewing, and they fought back with good old-fashioned hashtag-hijackage:

That’s right. Romney spreads his wealth around of his own volition.
#futuremittjokes Nobody has asked me why my party can't pass a budget.

Pretty sure that’s a win, right there.
The hashtag war’s still waging, but we’re feeling good about the eventual outcome.
