That's right. When Marc Leder decided to open his own hedge shop, he looked to Mitt Romney for start-up capital. In fact, it's rumored that the uptight Mormon and the horn dog of Boca Raton remain partners in some of Sun Capital's funds.
It is obvious now that Romney felt quite at home and among friends at Leder's fundraiser, and he used the opportunity to speak bluntly. That's causing a bit of a fuss now that Mother Jones has leaked some of those remarks. The media are now all about "oh look at how Romney reveals himself when he's with his own kind" etc. etc.
That's a bit much. I don't think he was being honest at all. Who truly believes Romney gives a shit about 53% of Americans? I think it's a lot closer to .053%, or roughly the percentage of the population who will attend a Romney fundraiser during the course of the campaign.
That works out to about 144,000 people, the exact number that some religious cults claim will enter the Kingdom of Heaven...
Hey! I could be onto something here!
