Nevada Democrats on Wednesday got creative: they delivered $10,000 in poker chips to Mitt Romney’s Las Vegas office. Romney over the weekend offered Rick Perry a $10,000 bet during a Republican debate.
“While $10,000 may not be much to Mitt Romney, we wanted to make sure he could easily place a bet the size of two months salary for the average Nevada household the next time he was in town,” Nevada State Democratic Party spokesperson Zach Hudson said in the release. “From calling middle class tax cuts ‘little band aids’ to his $10,000 bet, Mitt Romney can’t go one day without demonstrating how out of touch he is with Nevada’s working families. His off-hand remark made it very clear there is a clear contrast in this election between President Obama’s commitment to creating middle-class jobs and Romney’s elitist Wall Street values.”
