Well, looks like ol’ Mitt’s done it again and said a bunch of stuff that makes him look like some out of touch elitist that thinks poor people are subhuman creatures beneath his notice. Now this isn’t the first time he’s said some dumb rich guy shit but with less than 2 months left in the election the media’s acting like he just lost with this gaffe –
Obama supporters are really capitalizing on this, too –
Really, it’s not that big of a deal. I mean, yeah. It was a shitty thing to say but Mitt Romney’s a shitty person. I believe now as I have since he threw his magic underwear in the ring that he can’t win this. If anything he’s probably threw out that “fuck all the poor people” line to energize the right wing base that refuses to trust him due to his universal health care and wacky religion. I expect to see a lot more hardline conservative behavior in the next few weeks.
Who knows? Maybe he’ll start executing retarded people and claiming there’s WMDs in Iraq. That’d get his base going.
