    If it won gold, I would have voted for him.

    It's not his dancing horse, you know that. It's his wife's sport, he's too busy watching guys clean and jerk to even attend her event.

    I have to agree from the thread titele that this appears to be a very basso-type thread.

    But the tax cut for the horse is a legit point.

    No it isn't.

    If the horse sucks, fails to win and fails to make any money, there is no tax break.

    It's still a legit point because Romney is taxing about closing tax loopholes and deductions for middle class folks but takes advantage of them for himself.

    How many of us get to create forward tax credits on income for 2014 or beyond because of expenses we incur today? That's a legit point to discuss here.

    the fact that he gets to have a tax credit in future years based on this years loses is not something most of us get to do. So yes, it is.

    Perhaps you should switch your hobby to something that has a potential to turn a profit.

    Poor mitt, this guy is down on his luck. This is what it sounds like when doves cry.

    I think the idea of a hobby is that you do it for enjoyment, not to turn a profit.

    Rafalca looks great in that clip - just prancing like crazy I must admit. Perhaps I was wrong to question Rafalca's patriotism and Mitts love of American dressage.

    Kind of embarrassed.
