“We’re the party of people who want to get rich”
Ok, other than you just being one of those “bash Romney because he breathing” posters, you tell me what you would have said.
Dem for Bush has it right. “We’re the party of people who want to be successful”. Using word “rich” just makes people angry that they aren’t and he is.
I’m not a Romney-”basher.” He’s simply not the best candidate.
First off, why frame his response from an utterly inept Democrat mantra (party of the poor)? Why not rephrase, if we MUST use their descriptions of themselves, the response? The GOP’s the party of responsibility, of rugged AMERICAN inidividualism, of focused hard work, of success-driven, tax-paying, high-achievers. If the Democrats are the party of or for the poor, we’re the party whose taxes assure that the poor won’t starve, roads will be built, our children will be educated, our country will be defended. To be “rich” is the goal of lottery-ticket-buyers, not of Republicans. Or how about “Republicans like to MAKE their money, not to stand in line waiting for it.” Good grief, man, there are a thousand better messages than the one his incompetent staff (Schmidt!) chose for him.
