About time that the party the democrats call, toothless, southern, welfare sucking Republicans, fought back. Hillary made 11 million last year...doing what? Yep she's not like the other rich people money, bribes, just keep rolling in.

Payback: Republicans Paint ?Millionaire? Democrats as Out of Touch - Washington Wire - WSJ

When Democrats in 2012 tarred Mitt Romney as so wealthy he was out of touch, the Republican pushback was to assert that there’s no shame in being rich. “Republicans come here and say everyone should live like this,” Mr. Romney said at one fundraiser held at a supporter’s mansion.

Back then it worked, as President Barack Obama and his allied Democrats launched a full-scale campaign to tag Mr. Romney as the candidate of the rich, by the rich and for the rich. By and large, that worked, with a handful of assists from Mr. Romney himself.

Two years later, it’s Republicans who are using their opponents’ wealth as a campaign cudgel. In Wisconsin, New York, Pennsylvania and Georgia, GOP candidates have taken shots at their opponents for being wealthy – usually as part of trying to build a larger case that the foe is out of touch.
