Mitt Romney’s Taxing Crowd Numbers (Limerick)

Imagine giving a speech in a stadium meant to hold 65,000 people. Now imagine only 1,200 people showing up.

If you want to see what that looks like, check out this photo of Mitt Romney’s speech in Detroit’s Ford Stadium.

Mitt Romney is holding an event at Ford Stadium which has failed to attract enough people to come even close to filling it up (in fact, you could fit Romney’s 1,200 person crowd in the 65,000-seat stadium 54 times over).

Mitt Romney’s Taxing Crowd Numbers (Limerick)
By Madeleine Begun Kane

Just twelve-hundred folks in a place
Meant for sixty-five-thousand. Bare space!
That’s Mitt in Detroit:
Romney’s team ain’t adroit,
And poor Mitt has a very small base.

    No one can afford the gas to get there….
    its fill up your tank
    and leave your cupboards bare
    or eat and give thanks
    but go nowhere….

    that’s funny! A “small base”. There is a follow-up joke there but I’ll let it pass.
