The UMass Daily Collegian had an article last week, describing a rally by the Graduate Employees Organization protesting the Governor's refusal to sign their 2004-07 contracts, which the GEO and the University itself have already agreed upon. I'll let the article describe the best part:
Speaking first, Governor Rat Romney, a student dressed with a rat head representing Governor Mitt Romney, rallied the crowd of 150 students.The GEO has pictures from the event, including the rat himself.
"I can guarantee that a deal is never a deal, a promise made is never a promise kept, and that your collective bargaining agreements will never be worth the paper they are written on," the rat-governor said.
Graduate and undergraduate students holding "Fund UMass" and "Rat Romney '08" signs cheered the governor on, all while recording and photographing the event. The crowd grew larger as students walked past. Through the crowd, the GEO was circulating petitions.
Via Romney is a Fraud, who I'm sure couldn't resist. It's okay, neither could I.
