Please keep Mitt Romney in the race he's great for laughs. Harvard grad makes fun of Obama taking advise from the Harvard lounge and not from the battlefield where Romney has never been

From talking points memo

Romney, Harvard Grad With Harvard Advisers, Rips ‘Harvard Faculty Lounge’

Romney, Harvard Grad With Harvard Advisers, Rips ‘Harvard Faculty Lounge’
Benjy Sarlin 564540
Mitt Romney once again criticized President Obama for taking his advice from the “Harvard faculty lounge” in a speech in Florida on Thursday. He’s repeated the line on the campaign trail despite being a Harvard alum himself and counting Harvard faculty among his own top advisers.

In a major address on foreign policy last month, Romney used the school as a punchline to decry Obama as overly weak in dealing with dictators. “That may be what they think in that Harvard faculty lounge,” he said, “but it’s not what they know on the battlefield!”
Romney has never served on the battlefield, but he does hold degrees from Harvard in business and law. That’s one more than Obama, who has a law degree from the school and headed the Harvard Law Review. And it’s not just Romney who has Crimson ties: The Boston Globe notes that three of his children have attended Harvard Business School.
But, hey, at least he’s not taking his advice from the faculty lounge, right? Actually Romney relies on their expertise plenty. Meghan O’Sullivan, a former Bush aide, teaches international affairs at Harvard and reportedly advises him on foreign policy. His economic adviser for 2008 and 2012, Greg Mankiw, is a star professor there whose textbook is used at colleges around the country.

    As a college student, I know how difficult it is to go to attend school and be a conservative. Nearly all of my professors are liberals! Mitt is not bashing the education offered at Harvard, he is bashing the blindingly liberal slant the faculty holds.
