20. I'm not giving her a pass for the MS
Thu Jul 5, 2012, 10:46 AM

She's putting herself out there so she better be able to take it.

I know people with MS and they struggle. They struggle everyday to make ends meet and many of them still keep their jobs because it's the only way they are going to be able to get the treatments they need to survive having MS. They can't afford round the clock servants, cooks and nannies to take care of their home and they can't afford $500k dress horses because someone said it's good rehabilitation for someone with MS.

If anyone is a spokesperson for MS it surely isn't Ann Romney. She will never know what it's like to have MS and be a part of the working class. It's a struggle for most people, the regular folks like you and I.
