It’s probably well-known that GOP gubernatorial candidate Doug Robinson is former presidential candidate Mitt Romney’s nephew. We’re pretty sure his opponents Republican and Democratic have pointed this out several times. This morning, Uncle Mitt announced his candidacy for U.S. Senate in Utah to replace retiring U.S. Senator Orrin Hatch. Robinson, a businessman with a surprisingly great sense of humor, dropped a tweet that left many political watchers chuckling:

As Colorado Politics reporter Joey Bunch tweeted, “That’s a tweet of the week.”
Well played.
