Related: About this forumRMoney: “I know the very wealthy are going to do just fine – whoever’s elected”
http://livewire.talkingpointsmemo.com/entries/romney-very-wealthy-are-going-to-do-justDoes Mitt care to explain HOW and WHY the wealthy are going to be "doing fine" no matter who gets elected and nobody else is? Seems to me that that's something that maybe we should be having some kind of conversation about............
BTW this sounds suspiciously like ANOTHER comment that President Obama made that got ripped out of context to smear him with (private sector is doing fine). So, according to Mitt, the very wealthy are doing fine and will continue to do fine no matter what?

then what's holding them back from creating more jobs for the middle-class and poor? If they're going to be fine now matter who's elected, then what's the point of electing RMoney POTUS?

What we want to know is:
1. at who's expense?
and also #1. how will the not very wealthy do?
Rhetorical question only, Mittens. Don't bother trying to dislodge your foot from your mouth the answer. We already know the answer.
