Romney Video Offers Nothing New

 Sure, lask week's secretly-recorded fundraiser video of Mitt Romney disparaging and writing off nearly half of Americans, gave us a candid glimpse of how the Republican presidential candidate really views the average American.

 But all the hubbub almost felt overblown, for it only confirmed what the average fifth grader already should have known.

 No matter what Romney claims for the TV cameras, his priorities will never lie with the people.

 While neither political party is immune from the growing corrupt influence of Big Money, it's long been clear that Romney and his state-of-the-art obstructionist House Republicans celebrate an unprecedented cozy allegiance to Wall Street.

 We've known that Romney is the guy who was great at raking in millions of dollars for himself and a handful of fellow executives at the investment company Bain Capital -- while leaving a trail of bankruptcies, layoffs and outsourced jobs.

 And he's the guy hoarding millions in a Swiss Bank account and off shore in places like the Caymen Islands and Bermuda to avoid taxes. Maddow: Romney's tax return is a mess for the campaign 

 Last, but by far not least, Romney represents a party which made its number one priority the past four years, to block President Barrack Obama's every attempt to improve the economy. Just so conservatives can claim the president is failing us.  

It's been the one glaring hypocrisy of the past four years and this whole election season. And it that should provide voters with all they need to know to make a smart choice come November.
