south. does anybody any that mitt ro many any will mitt romney will lose alabama and mississippi to barack obama. good point. but mitt romney does not like cat fish, he said i had it for the first time and was delicious. and our investigators said, that in january 18th, he admitted to the owner he is not a cat fish man or a fish man so much. the flip flops. this is cat fish gate? it is. always a way with words. who wins alabama and mississippi tonight? we will make our predictions and place our bets after this break. the wags wager, wait for it.
