A person who was on the call, which included hundreds of participants, let The New York Times listen in.

Once again, his comments, to an audience he presumably trusted, was leaked. Maybe Romney needs to make some new friends.

Maybe he needs to open his eyes & realize this is ONE COUNTRY... not a country club.

The problem is not that he needs new friends, he needs a quick reality check. You can't blame the "urban vote" or minorities for your lost when you and your running both lost in their home states. He lost in Vermont, New Hampshire, Iowa, Wisconsin... I don't need to continue. He lost and it was his fault.
Oh I bet there is a lot of anger in the Romney house(s). Who cares, good riddance!

wouldn't kick in unless Romney was elected. Oops. The real problem is that there were a lot more of the middle class than his rich donors.
