Hare today, gone tomorrow

There's an old saying: A politician should have three hats. One for throwing into the ring, one for talking through, and one for pulling rabbits out of when boxed in. That goes for political wives, too. On Fox News last night, Neal Cavuto asked Ann Romney how she and Mitt could relate to the average Joe given their wealth. She replied: "You know, we can be poor in spirit. I don't even consider myself wealthy, which is an interesting thing. It can be here today and gone tomorrow." Right. So, tone-deafness isn't confined to Mitt alone. Hubby raked in $42 million in 2010/2011 and has a net worth of about $200 million, per New York magazine. I wish I was that poor in spirit.
