Even Mitt RomneyMr. 47%wants to “lift people out of poverty.” In a recent address at the Republican National Committee, Romney said, “The rich have gotten richer, income inequality has gotten worse and there are more people in poverty than ever before under this President.”
Twitter lit up. And, I mean lit up! “He wouldn’t know poverty if it slapped him in the face.”
Gawker.com piled on: “Comedy has an element of shamelessness, at least he has that going for him.” Another: “They actually let this guy win the nomination last time, take a moment to ponder what that really means about the right.”
