I don't remember the fact they were wealthy detracted from them running or being elected.
Just another example by the left to try and divide, playing on jealousey and entitlement thinking.

Nobody is asserting that wealth alone would invalidate a candidacy.
It's a targeted attack because Romney's own personality portrays him as an elite and out of touch. It's an attack that wouldn't work say against a Mike Bloomberg because he comes across as more grounded with real world issues.
If anything it's a much less nasty version of the effort to portray Obama as a Kenyan and out of touch with American values.
