I see the pride they have in where their people are from, their roots. They are proud of their blue collar roots, the work their families all did for the auto companies. And then I hear Romney dismissively sneering at them, ready to toss them all aside. Exactly as this woman so eloquently stated. He should feel pride that his father could earn such a good living working for the industry. Instead, he seems ashamed of his roots, like he's way too good for people who get their hands dirty for a living. That's the part about him that makes me sick!

As barely human - as a resource to be exploited, used up, then discarded when he's extracted enough wealth from their labor.

Wasn't George CEO of GM? So Mittens' money comes from that. You'd think he'd at least have loyalty to that industry.

Mittwit really thinks he hit a triple.

What loyalty would Mitt have toward "The Big Three' that squeezed his Pop's company out of business?
