Ann Romney's potato-mashing agenda

Cute story at CNN.com.

Mitt Romney wants voters to think about his business background and government experience when they go into the voting booth and make their pick for president. His wife wants them to know something else: "He can really make good mashed potatoes."


The anecdote, which Romney himself said was being made public for the first time, came as Ann Romney traveled with her husband Saturday, testifying to the little-known qualities she believes make him the preferred Republican presidential contender.


She said another one is that her husband taught her how to both change a diaper and feed a baby, experience she lacked when she had the first of their five boys.




"I think everybody knows we have five boys," Ann Romney told an audience at a local elementary school. "They may not now that I'd never held a baby until I held my first baby. I did not grow up in these big Mormon families and all these kids and everything; I really grew up in the country in Michigan, and I never held a baby until I had my own."

Invaluable things people don't know about Mitt :).
