    Looks like the theme of the race has been established.

    Romney was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. He didn't earn or build (*)(*)(*)(*).

    Who would want a president who attacks the pride one feels in a job well done?

    Hope the middle class pays attention...

    Romneys saying if you're not as rich as him it's because you're stupid and lazy

    Bull crap... Romney is saying the American Dream is still alive.... but Barack Obama is saying that it never was and he will kill it off for good!

    These shirts are selling FAST.... with Romney campaign making some good $$$.

    Two strikes for liberals.

    1) You are too dumb to realize Romney thinks you're lazy because you aren't as rich as he is
    2) If you do gain sucess, you did not gain it through your own personal risks, trials, and tribulations

    Keep it coming libs. I'd love for you to run on those ideas. LOL.

    The American dream is all but dead thanks to the corporate takeover and the 1% hoard the nations wealth.

    funny I listened to that ad 3 times and I never heard him say that. I did see a middle class guy who built a business through hard work and perseverance not someone wanting the government too pay their mortgage and give them food stamps

    sort of off topic but can't wait to see next weeks ads from Carneys job council blunder yesterday

    and the week after some ads touting Romney's success with the Salt Lake City Olympics

    wonder what the Obama team is planning, more rage against the rich I suppose

    I think that's the most effective Romney ad I've heard so far. In other words, the only effective Romney ad. Obama really stepped in it with his idiotic comment. On the other hand, I appreciate the flashes of honesty from him.

    could have been like me and a couple of people I graduated with. I had several roads I could have traveled when I was young and I chose the one that provided me with an adventuresome life rather than one that could have made me a lot more money. Ended up with a nice modest house in a nice neighborhood with 2 Honda cars and a Harley. A good friend went the MBA and CPA route and now has scads of money, is the CFO of a national company. My cousin decided to sit at home and collect welfare, he is still living in a broken down doublewide and collecting food stamps. All three of us had about the same opportunities, each of us ended up differently. You make your choices and live by them, I would not trade my life for anyones

    What is hilarious is that Obama called Mitt out on this one way before he could even get his attack moving. What is really startling is a lot of Mitts comments are (*)(*)(*)(*) near identical to the President. Watch:

    While Romney probably had better parents than Obama, but to hold that against him would be the truest form of hypocrisy. As for Romney, he built Bain's Capital from scratch, while other like firms were failing, the ultimate success story and the hundreds of thousands of jobs saved is no story of failure. His abilities for handling problems in an organization, helped him to make the Utah Olympics one of the best, gaining him worldwide recognition.

    so you agree with the president?

    The point is, is that when we succeed, we succeed because of our individual initiative, but also because we do things together. There are some things, just like fighting fires, we don't do on our own. I mean, imagine if everybody had their own fire service. That would be a hard way to organize fighting fires.

    I herd all Obama's speech. While i agree that Obama is a corporate tool.. a shredder of the constitution... operates in disregard of the American people and for the benefit of the elite.....

    Anybody who listened to his speech and all they came away with was... "You didn't build that" is a complete fooking moron... no better than the Obamabots who will vote for this clown again.

    How the hell can you people latch on to obvious spin like this... clearly taken out of context. Why cant you morons latch on to real transgressions like The Patriot Act, NDAA, HR 347, etc... there is so much real shiat to hang Obama with.. but you guys always latch onto the most stupid shiat you can find and run with it like it is relevant and a core issue.

    Obama will very likely win this election because you people are too stupid to call him on the things that matter... and support a candidate that is not a copy of what is occupying the Oval office right now.
