BEING TAKEN
FOR A RIDE
MIRAFLORES, LIMA, PERU
Frank Rich has an article in NEW YORK Magazine (January 29, 2012) which asks, "Who in God's Name is Mitt Romney?" It is not clear that Rich has discovered, or at least, defined in any detail, the essential secret of this particular would-be leader of the G.O.P., but he tries.
Meanwhile, Romney, flush from his victory in Florida, seemed to shape-shift into the proverbial bull-in-the-china-shop, with his comment about not being concerned about the very poor. He tried to rescue himself by saying that he was not concerned about the very rich either....
No? Check out the analyses of the beneficiaries of his proposed tax policies.
But then Romney, as far as can be determined, has only $250 million. Perhaps someone who has only a quarter-billion dollars does not feel himself very rich; there are, after, all, those "worth" tens of billions of dollars.
