I don't care what "education" someone does or doesn't have. I'm not a liberal. The kind of "work" he did for a living at Bain Capital was corrupt and destructive and certainly does NOT help him relate to average people. Most of us have no idea what it's like to push millions of dollars around between a bunch of shell corporations and drive companies into bankruptcy while keeping all the profits.
Is relating to average people a requirement to be President? Have you ever been to Mount Vernon? Or Monticello? Or Montpelier? Or are you more of a Jacksonian Democrat?
I actually kind of admire ruthless capitalists. But maybe it’s not a popular thing now, except among fans of Ayn Rand or something. And of course she’s not my ultimate heroine, as I’m a Christian and I can’t agree with her entirely.
And no, I didn’t vote for Romney here in Virginia. But somehow, the other candidates epically failed to make it onto the ballot.
So I’m going to suck it up and work very hard on our Senate race. Which also stinks, because now we have two conservatives running against George Allen.
