Holding Politicians Accountable

Gatsby or Romney?

The New Republic: “I was hardly the only one who, on reading the reports of Mitt Romney’s three weekend fundraisers in the Hamptons— one hosted by the Koch brothers—was put in mind of a certain classic American novel set amid the pre-1929 excesses and inequality of the Roaring Twenties. To underscore to what an extent Powerboat Mitt evokes the unapologetic upper-crust ethos of Jay’s days, here is a quick game for us to play. The challenge: pick whether the quote is from The Great Gatsby or from reports from yesterday’s shindigs.”

Play the game yourself.
