Politics: Mitt Romney Tells Millionaire Donors What He REALLY Thinks of Obama Voters (Video)
WOW! This is Willard Mitt Romney – raw, uncut, and unapologetic about his disregard and disrespect of nearly half of his fellow citizens!

Good thing (for America) there was a “spy” in the room…recording the real Mitt Romney.
