Romney: Hillary fights for the rich and she's out of touch with poor Americans, so elect me instead
Romney, Sudden Inequality Hawk, to Hit Clinton On Poverty
By DANIEL STRAUSSPublishedJANUARY 28, 2015, 1:51 PM EST
Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney will attack former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on the economy and foreign policy during a speech at Mississippi State University on Wednesday night.
According to speech excerpts obtained by NBC, Romney, who has indicated if he decides to run for president again one of the pillars of his campaign would be inequality, will ask "How can Secretary Clinton provide opportunity for all if she doesn't know where jobs come from in the first place?"
"Short term, our economy is looking up," Romney plans to say. "But it is a lot better for the few, and pretty darn discouraging for the many. Incomes haven't gone up in decades."
Romney's last presidential campaign in 2008 suffered from repeated attacks related to Romney's wealth and background as a CEO. One of the lowest points in his campaign came after he said that the 47 percent of the country who depend on government would not vote for him. The moment was caught on video, and circulated widely.

Romney targets Hillary Clinton as he considers presidential bid
(CNN) <...>
Those attacks build on comments his team made earlier Wednesday. As Romney heads to the nation's poorest state, his political team is fighting back against perceptions that his wealth could be a political liability if he runs for president again, arguing that Clinton is no model for modest living, either.
"It's going to be hard for Hillary Clinton to make Mitt Romney's wealth a fruitful line of attack, with her multi-million dollar mansions in Georgetown and Chappaqua and her jet-setting lifestyle of the rich and famous," a Romney aide said Wednesday.

embrace of civil rights and racial equality (thereby writing off the solidly Democratic South for at least a generation)?
Nah, I've taken Romney's measure. Unlike his Dad, this iteration is an out-and-out phony, getting ready to do all of us what he did to his dog and to John Lauber so many years ago.
On a humorous note, wouldn't it be funny if Mitt, like his father, claimed he had been 'brainwashed,' this time about supply-side economics?

That'll teach those damn moochers to be so envious of the "job creators"!

Please avert your eyes from her palling around with the top execs at Goldman and war criminal Henry Kissinger. Pay no attention to her obvious servitude to our Plutocratic Overlords and sit down/be quiet.
But at least Hillary pays some taxes.
