Mitt Romney: Just a Normal Rich Guy

April 30, 2012 @ 10:33 am

Dave says Mitt Romney's best chances of getting elected may be found in photos that make him look like a normal guy. BuzzFeed has collected some family photos from his daughter-in-law's mommy blog. What do you think? Do these photos help you relate to the candidate?

    Very nice looking family.

    They definitely live a lifestyle that is several notches about mine.

    I have a nice looking family too....but I doubt if I could get even my dog to vote for me for president.

    Dam TRAITOR! I should take him for an outdoor car ride.....

    The man had the ambition to build a major financial institution from the ground up, win and succeed as a Republican governor in a decidedly Democratic state, saved the Winter Olympics from financial & logistical disaster, and has a family that's willing to go through this kind of scrutiny so that our nation might have the kind of leader it needs right now.

    Yes, it's imperative that he and his family must be ridiculed for their success.

    while the obamas are praised as "one of us" Yup, michelle has never worked a day in her life, had cushy "non profit" jobs that just happened to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars. She LOST her license for law. 500,000 dollar trips to spain with friends...sure....she's just one of you? Multi-million dollar book sales???? Sure...just one of you. Mitt Romney has a great looking family,....I would love someone to pull similar pictures of Obamas family growing up? Oh, thats right, he was gone all the time, and she was too busy working her "charity" to spend time with her kids. What did she say? She said she had to make a "tough choice" to go back to work...Yup, pretty tough only making 1 million a year...had to make more....

    She has never worked a day in her life but had "had cushy "non profit" jobs"?

    Are you really that stupid? A job is work, moron.

    She GAVE UP HER LICENSE, to keep an active membership in the Bar you need to have continuing education, many non practicing lawyers GIVE UP THEIR LICENSE so they don't have to attend the continuing education.

    So I'll answer my question.

    Yes, you are that stupid.

    ....the "impromptu" photo of Obama with the shocked college girl that had liberals' socks all wet when it went viral last week, but here's a better question: Why does Dave Ross feel the need propagate the myth that rich people somehow aren't "normal" or can't be "normal" people because of their wealth? Why isn't he normal, Dave? Does being rich make a person more or less "normal" of a guy?

    What is Dave's point?

    Why wouldn't Romney relate to me? He's pictured with a child, his wife, and supposedly with his family in a antique car. After hitting the link for more photos further proves that he can relate to me...more family photos. Oh, the humanity! Romney enjoys being around his family!
