"Shut up 99% and do my nails!" Just a peek into the mindset of those that donate to Mitt Romney's campaign.

"Then what did that nasty old bitch say?"

Reporting on the long line of expensive cars that were arriving at a Mitt Romney fundraiser at an East Hampton estate the LA Times reporter reported this exchange:

A New York City donor a few cars back, who also would not give her name, said Romney needed to do a better job connecting. "I don't think the common person is getting it," she said from the passenger seat of a Range Rover stamped with East Hampton beach permits. "Nobody understands why Obama is hurting them. 

"We've got the message," she added. "But my college kid, the baby sitters, the nails ladies -- everybody who's got the right to vote -- they don't understand what's going on. I just think if you're lower income -- one, you're not as educated, two, they don't understand how it works, they don't understand how the systems work, they don't understand the impact."

Well I guess that could not be more clear now could it?  If you are rich you should have the right to elect this country's leaders, and if you are not, well fuck off!

And the sad thing is that with the Citizens United Supreme Court ruling that is exactly who might be deciding who gets elected from now on.

Unless of course those of us who DON'T get invited to a fundraiser at Revlon Chairman Ronald Perelman's East Hampton estate get out and vote that is.  Remember THEY have the money, but WE have the numbers.
