Mitt Romney: 'I'm Not Concerned About The Very Poor'

Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney said on Wednesday that he's "not concerned about the very poor," citing the social safety net in place for that segment of the populace and adding that he's focused on the middle class.

"I'm in this race because I care about Americans. I'm not concerned about the very poor. We have a safety net there. If it needs repair, I'll fix it," the Republican front-runner said Wednesday on CNN, following his victory in the Florida primary. "I'm not concerned about the very rich, they're doing just fine. I'm concerned about the very heart of the America, the 90 percent, 95 percent of Americans who right now are struggling."

What? are you kidding me? did he just say that! how can anyone try to become a President and make a statement like that? I am gonna
remember that, it's an outrage.
statement.

I consider myself to be a liberal and yet I found myself doing a massive facepalm at the way the media handled this "story."

Also, wrong forum?

This. I could care less about the lazy happy to be on welfare pop ATM. No I'm not heartless either. I have 2 members of my family that drain taxes. Giving them more is really not going to help. Creating jobs that pay over 14$ an hr is much more impotent.
