To: Just mythoughts

Yeah, but remember in NH when Willard rammed Newt and Santorum for trying to play the “politics of envy” by talking about his Bain experience -

And the next day, on one of the a.m. shows, he was asked about his “politics of envy” statement...and the reporter dolt asked him if talking about things like wealth redistribution was the “politics of envy” and Mitt said, ‘things like that and tax policy should be discussed in quiet rooms...’

And I just think that term “quiet rooms” is a little bit weird, you don’t hear it often, and then Carville specifically uses that phrase... quiet rooms where wealth distribution and tax policy and politics of envy should be discussed...

Get my drift? Newt's post-primary employment is the kind of thing that needs to be discussed in quiet rooms.

Carville is being a bit too smart for his own good. From the context, it is clear that the dems are planning to hang Romney with his remark, that income redistribution, i.e. tax policy, should be discussed "in quiet rooms". Romney probably meant "in a rational, non-political setting", but the Dems will spin it, most likely successfully, as suggesting that decisions will be made by an elitist, uncaring Romney behind closed doors, excluding input from "the people".

Romney is an extremely dangerous gaff machine, because his core belief are limited to his religious beliefs, which themselves are alien to 98.5% of the population.
