Mitt Romney better hope he does better in November than his wife's horse, Rafalca, who came in 13th in Olympic dressage on Thursday.
But Rafalca Romney, the 15-year-old mare, did have one solid victory this week, and it was on Twitter. The Twitter user @RafalcaRomney appears to be the equestrian version of the spoof Bo Obama accounts. The parody account tweeted up a storm on Thursday night following the horse's Olympic performance. According to the person behind the account, the horse was on a mission in the Olympic Village -- a mission to party.
Man, am I glad that's over! Time for me to head down to Olympic Village and get completely #RafalcedUp— Rafalca Romney (@RafalcaRomney) August 2, 2012
We're not sure how much a horse has to drink to get drunk, but apparently Rafalca found out as the tweets got more absurd as the evening went on.
Some #TeamUSA pals just dared me to get up on the bar and repeat my Olympics routine. You know what? Step back, I'm doing it. #London2012— Rafalca Romney (@RafalcaRomney) August 3, 2012
Remember that time I danced on top of the bar? I don't, but apparently I took out three shelves of liquor with a pirouette and so we left.— Rafalca Romney (@RafalcaRomney) August 3, 2012
By the end of the evening the horse was "completely #RafalcedUp," a hashtag that gained some popularity on Twitter.
