Josh Marshall counters the candidate's spin:
Mitt well captures the belief of the majority of people in the country that the system is rigged on behalf of the very wealthy. It’s not the wealth itself. People don’t begrudge Romney his wealth or his “success”. That’s Romney spin. I also don’t think people expect him to pay more tax than he’s legally obligated to do. If I were making Romney money, I certainly wouldn’t. But I’d also support changing the rules because we need that money to get the country’s finances in order. The problem Romney faces is that he’s a living breathing example of what many people see as the problem. And by his stated positions, he doesn’t think it’s a problem. If you’re running Mitt’s campaign, that’s a problem.
