Iowa caucuses today! Thus, a perfect day to pose this very important political question:

What is up with Mitt Romney's face lately?

Seriously, the guy looks like he had his makeup done by a mortician! It's no secret that the candidates wear makeup for debates, speeches and other televised appearances, but poor Mitt has been looking a pasty, over-powdered mess these days.

His makeup been getting progressively worse over the last few months, and it was a close-up photo that I saw today on TMZ that really shocked me (go here and click on the photo of Mitt to see). Dude looks like he's wearing foundation on his lips.

And Mitt is usually so tan! He needs some bronzer and a "dewier" foundation, quick.

Maybe he needs to pay a return visit to Hidden Beauty in California? He did pay them $300 for makeup consulting last summer!
