So, I was surprised by this comment and I feel like it may have been taken out of context. That is one thing that bothers me about the media...they can cut paste quotes together to make people sound like...whatever they want them to sound like (stupid, racist, uncaring, etc).

Most politicians are rich (left and right wing) and this is a perfect example of how they just can't relate to us everyday middle income folk. Its a shame that wealth is pretty much a prerequisite for running for office.
