"Mitt Romney and his family would have been the essence of exactly what this country needs. But what was Romney's recipe? Romney's recipe was the old standby: American route to success, hard work.

It was rejected in favor of a guy who thinks that those who are working aren't doing enough to help those who aren't. And that resonated."
