Wake That Ass Up With Soledad O’Brien And The CNN Starting Point Morning News Show
|Mitt Romney: middle income Americans are focus, not very poor
After winning the Florida primary, GOP presidential nominee hopeful Mitt Romney explains to CNN anchor Soledad O’Brien that he is focused on a particular portion of the American population in his campaign.
Romney says, “I’m not concerned about the very poor. We have a safety net there. If it needs a repair , I’ll fix it. I’m not concerned about the very rich…. I’m concerned about the very heart of America, the 90-95 percent of Americans who right now are struggling.”
O’Brien asked him to clarify his remarks saying, “There are lots of very poor Americans who are struggling who would say, ‘That sounds odd.'”
Romney continues, “We will hear from the Democrat party, the plight of the poor…. You can focus on the very poor, that’s not my focus…. The middle income Americans, they’re the folks that are really struggling right now and they need someone that can help get this economy going for them.”
Starting Point with Soledad O’Brien airs week mornings from 7-9am ET on CNN.
Once again, you gotta love it when a plan comes together.
My pimp instincts have been indicating that Soledad O’Brien really is The Business in the journalism game as she really rides hard for the cause and is adept at opening a can of intellectual whoop ass for those who may be in need of some nourishment, and it appears that CNN seconds the emotion as I have for whatever reason gotten into the 2012 habit of starting my weekdays with Soledad and her Starting Point news show which airs on the west coast between the wee hours of 4-6 AM.
Just as I thought to put her up on the wall, I came across this new sizzling topic regarding Mitt Romney and his statements and views regarding Class in America, and although I have seen it on the news shows from the time since he has made and now at the end of the week retracted his statements, I was not aware that out of all the people he could have relayed his remarks to, it was in fact none other than Mrs.O’Brien who brought the simple question up for discussion when the opportunity presented itself.
In closing, lets see what manifests as I believe that we are really on to something, and with a few simple keystrokes, perhaps Mitt Romney and his supporters can better relate to the plight of the poor and lower middle classes in America with themselves as members of those classes as yet another different perspective to consider, compliments of Your Friendly Neighborhood PimpHop.com.
