Aside

What name should Mitt Romney give his campaign plane? Twitter has some ideas…

Mitt Romney is holding a contest to name his campaign jet. Fortunately for him, people on Twitter have been eager to suggest potential names. Here are some of the leading contenders:

  • Air Force 1% (our favorite)
  • OutSource One (ideal for a profiteer of Romney’s caliber)
  • Con Air (the perfect name for the jet that helps America’s best known corporate con fly from city to city in comfort)
  • The Bain Plane (in homage to Bain Capital)
