Hedge Funder: Mitt Romney Blew It By Picking Ryan (He Is TOO Honest) And Now He'll Lose The Election

HEDGE FUNDER JOHN TAYLOR: Mitt Romney Blew It By Picking Ryan, And Now He'll Lose The Election


Wow.

Hedge funder John Taylor is on CNBC and expressing major disappointment in Romney for selecting Paul Ryan for being his running mate.

Why? Because he's too open about wanting to cut Medicare, and that will cost the election.

.............................

Taylor even thinks that the budget cutting needs to be done, but that it's a mistake to be so open about it.

"I agree that we have to do this stuff... but you don't want to do it in public," he said.
