Ron Paul defends Romney on comments about the "very poor"

“I don’t believe for a minute that if Mitt Romney was sitting here, that if he released everything in his heart, he (would say): ‘You know what, the truth is, I really don’t care about poor people.’ That isn’t–I just don’t believe that,” Paul said in an interview on CNN’s “Piers Morgan Tonight.”…

“I think it was a big issue because of politics, because of the opposition, the demagoguing, the media jumping on this,” Paul said. “Actually, I think I ended up probably defending him more than he defended himself.”
