Wide-Eyed Chipotle Worker Amazed By Mitt Romney

When a young man named Marty Arps struck a pose beside presidential candidate Mitt Romney at his workplace recently, he had no idea the resulting photo would make him an instant celebrity.

The picture quickly went viral and made the rounds on Twitter, where the phrase of the day was “this is the only picture of Mitt Romney you will ever need”. Arps insists his expression is just one he makes when he’s excited, and didn’t think it would turn out to be such a big deal. Obviously he’s never heard of the internet.

I’m just saying, they Romney photo op at Chipotle is pretty much a microcosm/analogy for Mitt Romney’s experiences of being Mexican.

Chipotle didn’t fall yesterday because of Einhorn. It was obviously because of Romney photobomb guy $CMG http://t.co/FLMwy2Wl

Look at that pose! Stiff as a board including his smile. Comfortable around them? I think not!!! Yeah, Romney really relates, yeah, Romney really cares. His body doesn’t lie.

  WvRomney does really care. That’s why he ran for president. He cares about our country and what happens to it. Yeah, he doesn’t relate. So? He has the experience, the intelligence, and he has a plan. But we STILL elected Obama. Who, by the way, obviously DOES NOT care. Look at our country: Obama Care being forced on us, millions out of work, gas over 4 dollars, and, oh!, here comes the fiscal cliff. Obama doesn’t care.
  
  He could care less about the 47%. When you lose your job, where is he? Nowhere to be found. He said it himself: most of the jobs aren’t coming back. We would’ve gotten them back with Romney. Everyone says “Obama’s for the people”. Heh, no he’s not.
  
  He’s “for” himself.
