#8. Mitt Gambles with Rick
As a libertarian, trying to like Romney in 2012 was the equivalent to trying to like store brand soda. We all really want a Pepsi, but we all know that our party guests aren’t really worth the extra five bucks. During an argument at a primary debate, Rick Perry pointed out some discrepancies in Romney’s book “No Apologies”, Romney then tried to make a joke of the matter, and bet a shit ton of money against Perry to show how confident he was about Rick being wrong. It’s sad that Mitt still wondered why he wasn’t connecting with the middle class.
