Romney's Horse Qualifies for the Olympics


Ann Romney's horse, Rafalca, qualified for the Olympic Dressage team, which may or may not be good news for the candidate. The pricey sport is not doing much to change Romney's elite reputation, but the horse is actually co-owned by Ann Romney and Jan Ebeling, who is Ann's longtime coach.

The sport, which does not involve jumping, is an incredibly complex series of precise, choreographed moves by horse and rider that are so much harder than they look. Ann Romney suffers from MS and has long credited horseback riding with keeping her symptoms at bay.

Steven Colbert has fun with the topic above.
