Rick Perry: Mitt Romney’s $10,000 Bet Was ‘Out Of Touch’

DES MOINES – Rick Perry may have turned down the $10,000 bet laid out by Mitt Romney Saturday night, but the Texas governor did not miss an opportunity to criticize him for it, characterizing the Massachusetts governor’s challenge as “out of touch” with the American people during a morning show interview today.

“I was taken a little aback. Driving out to the station this morning, I’m pretty sure I didn’t drive by a house that anyone in Iowa would even think about that a $10,000 bet was even possible, so a little out of touch with the normal Iowa citizen,” Perry said during an interview on Fox News Sunday.

    Like the multi-millionaire "representatives" of "we, the people" in Congress, how in the heck does someone who is willing to BET $10,000 (!!) understand what it's like to have your plant closed (after working there for 15-20 years), have your life savings stolen by bankers and real estate manipulators, and have to wonder if you can pay the heating bill AND feed your kids? NONE of the candidates can REMEMBER what that's like (if they EVER knew it at all....). Except Ron Paul.
