More people embarrassed to be seen reading Romney memoir than bondage book
July 30, 2012
Unless you live in a dark hole or in Rick Santorum's house, you've probably heard of Fifty Shades of Grey, that S&M-themed book that everyone's reading or has already read.
The bondage novel has absolutely nothing to do with Mitt Romney, but a new Vanity Fair poll shows more people would be embarrassed to be seen in public reading a memoir penned by the presidential candidate (8 percent) than caught with a copy of 50 Shades (6 percent).
Granted, Romney doesn't have a memoir (though he did publish No Apologies in 2011, a book detailing his vision for America), so you never know. Maybe it would be better than 50 Shades.
Probably not.
