Do You Think That Mitt Romney Has Any Working Class or Poor Friends?

[Yavin4]

And no, his servants and staffers do not count. I am talking about being friends with people who are not stinking rich.

1. rich people don't have "friends".

they just have associates they haven't managed to exploit yet.

[treestar]

3. Mormon Gekko has no poor friends

"I spent my life buying up companies with their own debt, laying off thousands of hard workers, and pocketing millions in consulting fees.........and I'm a Mormon."....Mitt Romney

4. Does Gilligan and the Skipper count?

[wendylaroux]

7. well,it doesn't seem

he even likes them,they are more like servants, he and
Lovey don't seem to like anyone.

[Lochloosa]

5. Why would he?

[subterranean]

6. From his public statements, all his friends seem to be in the "owner" class.

NASCAR team owners, NFL team owners, corporate jet owners, etc...

I would guess that most people of Romney's class do not mingle with working-class or poor people, and vice-versa.

8. Class and Mitt in the same sentence? n/t

[Drunken Irishman]

9. No.

10. No he doesn't. "Stay wealthy my friends." -- Mittens the least interesting man in the world.

[nxylas]

11. My guess is that if one of his friends became poor through misfortune...

...Mittens would cross the street to avoid that person.

12. There's that guy, whats-his-name, you know, the one on at the airport who shines his shoes.

He's got to be poor, Mitt's working on it. Last time he gave him a whole dollar for a tip.

[CreekDog]

15. If he needs them, I'm sure he'll get some

[DavidDvorkin]

16. No, but he has friends who own some.

[Joe Shlabotnik]

17. All the friends that Rmoney can buy. n/t

[Rincewind]

18. I don't think he has

friends period. I think he has buisness associates and employees.
