Only one problem with your closing argument. How many degrees does Romney have from Harvard?!
They do beat the dumb and mean drum, and I for one am willing to work any angle to end that blatant lie.
You're exactly right. That's why they can't use that particular one on Romney. But they sure use it on Palin.
Obama seems to be making more direct use of the standard Marxist class warfare angle. Maybe there will be three Democrat's favorite emotional weapons going forward: Stupid, Mean and/or Rich.
