Romney: Obama surrounded by 'true believers'

"Out of touch liberals like Barack Obama say they want a strong economy, but they really don't like businesses very much," the former Massachusetts governor told supporters gathered in the Grain Exchange in downtown Milwaukee as he celebrated wins in Wisconsin, Maryland and the District of Columbia.

"Years of flying around on Air Force One, surrounded by an adoring staff of true believers telling you what a great job you are doing, well, that might be enough to make you a little out of touch," he said.

So...Romney is surrounded by a staff of folks who constantly challenge him?
Oh yeah...and the car elevator for his mega-garage?
Who's REALLY out of touch here?

Obama is "out of touch?" Coming from Romney? That's a Rove tactic right there, take your worst problem and pawn it off on the other guy.

... in economy class, surrounded by strangers who don't even recognize him? Is that what we're supposed to believe?


I like how he told this to a group of "supporters".
