   One earns and invests his own money. One takes and wastes mine. i can’t wait to be out of ‘touch’.

   One wants to vastly lower his own taxes and vastly increase federal and state deficits. One wants to let his taxes increase slightly back towards historical norms and pay down the deficit. Can’t wait to hear the debates.

   One born into a life of modest means with dark skin, the other born very rich and very pale. BTW, how does the one with a median income afford designer throw pillows? Shouldn’t she be saving that money in her IRA so we all won’t have to pay to support her when she is 72?

   I’m not sure that having money equals being out of touch with average people. Maybe we should have concrete examples rather than just a dollar-count.

   @taratus

   Are you sure those throw pillows are designer? They look cartoon to me…

   A smart consumer judges a product by the end result of it’s use.

   This product – although very well marketed ( By the MSM) – isn’t providing very good results.

   May be time to switch brands….

   Why is an O supporter wasting her time watching Mitt commercials? I turn the channel when O or Mitchell is on tv. It’s such an easy choice to vote for Mitt and give O the boot.

   So logically, we should vote for the $40,000 a year female.
   Better yet, we should elect a homeless person since they make no money?

   Ted, the premise of this toon is ridiculous. It’s just a cheap shot that won’t convince any reasonable person.
   
   Is a person who begins life in the poor or middle class, who manages to make it to a higher income bracket, inherently out of touch? Is someone who starts in the upper class always a foe of the lower classes? The answer to both is clearly no (consider Bill Clinton and FDR in each case).
   
   IMO, there are ample reasons to say that Romney is out of touch based on what he’s said and done. Obama doesn’t seem to me to be out of touch as much as inexperienced and too willing to compromise with the bullies in the GOP.

    Mitt romney knows what a dressage horse is, but not a doughnut. Concrete enough?

    And he thinks that someone wanting to start a business or go to college can easily borrow what they need from their parents.

    At least Romney made his in the private sector. He did not become a millionaire while in office.

    What’s so funny is when Obama likes to imply that it’s us (and him,too!) against all those mean one percenters when in fact HE is a one percenter! Amazing how dumb people can be to believe his dribble.

    The debates this fall, if there are any, will remind you of clowns throwing pies at each other!

    Yes, it would be too uncomfortable to consider that your precocieved notions could be wrong and actually listen to something that might challenge them…
