I still can't wrap my head around romney's comments on half of America.

[Whovian]

How can someone be so disconnected with the rest of the world? What kind of sick individual believes he is Midas incarnate?

1. The entitled rich don't have to think like commoners

Because they own commoners.

[nolabear]

2. And how the hell does he get to be a presidential candidate???

That's what throws me. I can see one guy being delusional, or a group getting caught up in a folie, but freaking PRESIDENT???

[Marie Marie]

3. Well, there was that little issue of his fellow candidates being even worse.

Or so we thought at the time. Now, compared to this guy, they almost seem, um (forgive me for this but we are grading on a curve here), tolerable?? Yeesh, I can't believe I said that but again, in comparison...

5. Yeah, Cain looks a lot better in retrospect

[Hutzpa]

7. Apparently he is suppose to be the best out of the lot

that's what I heard.

4. $300 million isn't enough

Romney "cudda been a contender"

[bhikkhu]

6. They've been telling each other for ages that people are mostly worthless

the basic script to get into the club - believe that people are mostly worthless, lazy, stupid, gullible, not worth what they eat, etc, etc...

Themselves they imagine to be the elect, the worthwhile, the natural leaders, the evolved, or whatever.
