Sorry, Honey Boo Boo. Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney likes Snooki better.

Asked to choose between the two reality stars during a taping of “Live! With Kelly and Michael” on Friday, Romney said he’s “kind of a Snooki fan.”

"She's energetic. Just her spark-plug personality is kind of fun," said the former Massachusetts gov, according to a pool report.

Romney also noted that Snooki, who just had a baby last month, has lost weight. “Look how tiny she’s gotten,” he remarked.
