Bag’s Take-Away:
Bad weekend for Romney…photos of uber rich donors’ cars queued up for a fundraiser, elitist quotes from attendees, photos of the Romney boat at his vacation manse and in front of a child’s toy that costs anywhere from $300-400. The campaign is taking quite a risk banking on competence trumping displays of ostentatious wealth.
