The Twitter backlash was swift and severe.

I predict racist @AidanBurleyMP will resign by Wednesday – please see his tweets and help me make it happen. #noroomforracistsinUK

But for many, slamming Burley wasn’t enough. It was also a great excuse to continue bashing GOP candidate Mitt Romney.

Hearing that @AidanBurleyMP account WAS hacked. By Mit Romney.

Mitt Romney needs a running mate. Pity @AidanBurleyMP born in New Zealand not US. They'd make a great pair

Dear Mr Romney, Do you have a vacancy in your campaign team; @aidanburleymp will soon be available and has your eclectic outlook?

What, no tweets using Burley’s remarks to screech about Sarah Palin and George W. Bush? You guys are slacking!
