That Romney donor has nailed it on the head. The common people aren't getting it and a fair chunk of common people are going to vote for Mr. Romney... if the common people "got it", Mr. Romney would have zero chance of getting elected.
However this commoner has something to say to everyone - This November, if you were a turkey, would you vote for Thanksgiving? A vote for Romney is the same as a turkey voting for Thanksgiving - you get your backside cooked, and some rich guy reaps all the rewards.
