GOP presidential contender Mitt Romney offered to bet opponent Gov. Rick Perry $10,000 over a dispute involving Romney's book. Who makes $10,000 bets? This debate moment will be rerun a thousand times by Obama loyalists who are counting on class warfare to re-elect the president.
In the midst of the Occupy Wall Street movement, Romney is vulnerable on the "Fat Cat" issue because of his wealth. The size of the bet makes Romney appear out of touch with working Americans, many of whom spend three months trying to earn that much. The fact Romney didn't see that is a blind spot he must address…soon.
Any bets he can do it successfully?
