Mitt
Romney has made it into the Baseball Hall of Fame—in a roundabout sort
of way.
NY Mag says, “Sitting in the hallowed halls of the Cooperstown museum
these days is the uniform of a theatrical protest troupe called the Tax
Dodgers, a "team" that debuted along with a giant Mitt at a
Donald Trump fund-raiser for Romney in April. The
Times reports,
“Inside
a glass case was a white jersey with flowing blue lettering that reads
the Tax Dodgers; the hat displayed a 1 percent logo.” That
the
Occupy group "have been included in the Hall of Fame Museum not because
of their political content but because they reflect baseball’s
prominent place in the national landscape." According to a curator,
"It's a language we all speak." More from NYMag’s
Daily Intel blog.
