Romneyetting: when Ann does it's definitions

Romneying

Accidentally bragging about your place high up in the economic stratosphere is Romneying.

Credited to David Weigel in his 2012 post for Slate title "Introducing: Romneying"
Romneying Example 1: Asked by the AP reporter if he follows NASCAR, Romney responded, "Not as closely as some of the most ardent fans. But I have some great friends who are NASCAR team owners."

Romneying Example 2: Romney said he owns a Ford Mustang and a pick-up truck while his wife, Ann, drives "a couple of Cadillacs," in an offhand remark during a question-and-answer session after a speech on economic policy.
