Massachusetts millionaire Mitt Romney grew up in a “series of bubbles” that cut him off from the life of ordinary Americans, according to the author of a Romney biography.
Michael Kranish, co-author of “The Real Romney” told CBS’ Bob Schieffer on Face The Nation this morning that Romney’s “father was governor; went on a Mormon mission for two-and-a-half-years, and then to Harvard and the world of private equity. So it’s been a series of bubbles.”
Kranish said Romney’s lack of connection with people has been a problem for the candidate all during his political career, and may explain several of his campaign gaffes.
Romney recently had to backtrack from comments that he likes to fire people, and that he isn’t concerned with the very poor.
