Before the RNC aired Mitt Romney's biography video, Jon Stewart had an "advanced copy" that he showed last night on The Daily Show: "Mitt Romney: A Human Who Built That."
It was not luck, the film explains, that Romney was born to wealthy George Romney. He competed against other, weaker sperm, including one who was a teacher and another who was a welfare cheat. Romney also refused, on principle, to pay for schooling with public money, instead getting a local businessman (George Romney) to invest.
In all his success, when Romney approached the final frontier of gaining the presidency, he realized a "terrible truth" about his rule as governor of Massachusetts: "He had built himself the wrong way." So with money and a lot of work, Romney rebuilt himself into the conservative guy he is today.

On Thursday night’s episode of the Daily Show, Jon Stewart laid into Mitt Romney for the former Massachusetts governor’s recent comments blaming his defeat on “gifts” with which President Obama bribed his voting base.
Stewart replayed a clip of Mother Jones‘ now-famous “47 percent” video in which Romney says almost half the country sees themselves as victims entitled to government handouts, and expressed shock that Romney would reiterate those sentiments, even after having walked them back. “You can imagine my surprise when this man, so unfairly caricatured—by his own words—as an out of touch plutocrat who sees the lower classes as government leeches, yesterday blamed his campaign loss on said leeches.”
“As it turned out,” Stewart said, “much to Mitt Romney’s disappointment,” the president ended up getting votes from some non-47 percenters, too. “Barack Obama was somehow also able to pick up four more percent of real America.”
