boy what you do not know about the party::::you really need to educate yourself on politics outside of the land of fruits and nuts that you live in.

The result?

Democrats calling him racist, since she was black and he "gave her a handout"....saying he is an elitist as he can drive around throwing cash at people. Wow......

He has money like many presidents (some of which were successful as president)....is it a problem to the point we have to complain about everything even good deeds?
Is the thread topic "success" or "good deeds?"

I thought it was a nice gesture on Mr. Romney's part, but, you know what they say about giving someone a fish vs. teaching them (or making it possible) to catch their own.
The only criticism that I've seen connected to this incident is that handouts are all well and good, but, how is Mr. Romney going to address the larger issues that make handouts necessary particularly when he seems not to understand how tone-deaf he sounds when he talks about his wife driving multiple Cadillacs, etc.

Default Do people hate success in this election?

Too early to tell in this current election season.

But there are sure a lot of loudmouth malcontents still upset with the successful conclusion of the 2008 election.

Don't be a H8R
