Willard's Millions


On slow news days (Saturdays) I tend to find out things about the 2008 candidates that I didn't know.

All you hear about Mitt Romney is that he is Mormon, believe it or not there is more to good ol' Mitt than his Mormonism. Did you know that Romney's first name is Willard, and his net worth is around $350 million?

Willard aside, that is a pretty healthy net worth, I had no idea he was that wealthy. That's like Scrooge McDuck, Trump, Perot, Forbes wealthy. In my mind that gives him extra points because he made it himself. Anyone that can create that amount of wealth is a smart person, and can manage a lot. Two qualities that a president should have (go ahead insert Bush joke here).

No word on if he swims around in his dough like Scrooge.
