Why Mitt the high school bully matters May 10, 2012 8:30 pm BuckGalaxy

Bullying in general and gay bullying in particular has been an issue in the news for some time now.  So the fact that one of our major candidates was a high school bully of gays is something that will resonate with a lot of young people today.

Not a huge issue but  timing is important too.  The perfect storm of news over the last week makes this information  particularly harmful to Romney.
