Even if Perry's pals turned down the movie, Perry has embraced its message. Sounding like an OWS protester in South Carolina Monday, Perry said:

“I had to shake my head yesterday when one of the wealthiest men, I suppose, that’s ever run for the presidency of the United States -- the son of a multimillionaire -- Mitt Romney, he said, ‘I know what it’s like to worry about whether you’re going to get fired... There were a couple of times when I wondered whether I was going to get a pink slip.' He actually said this. Now, I have no doubt that Mitt Romney was worried about pink slips, whether he was going to have enough of them to hand out. Because his company, Bain Capital, with all the jobs that they killed. I’m sure he was worried he’d run out of pink slips.”

Gingrich told reporters in New Hampshire Monday:

"[Romney is] the one who went around ... and said, 'Look, I've had these 20 years' experience.' Fine. Now let's talk about the 20 years' experience. ... What you have to raise questions about is somebody goes out, invests a certain amount of money, say $30 million; takes out -- and I'll say, 180 million: 6-to-1 return. And then the company goes bankrupt. And you have to ask a question: Is that really what -- is capitalism really about the ability of a handful of rich people to manipulate the lives of thousands of other people and walk off with the money or is that in fact somehow a little bit of a flawed system?"

And Huntsman told reporters in New Hampshire Monday:

"I will always put my country first. It seems that Governor Romney believes in putting politics first. Governor Romney enjoys firing people. I enjoy creating jobs."

Paul didn't use Romney's name, The New York Times reports, but he told voters:

"The wealth is taken from the middle class and it goes to the select few, who are the insiders."

But! Gingrich and Huntsman hedge a little -- it's not that they're anti-rich, they just want the strongest nominee in November. "If somebody is going to crumble, they better crumble before the nomination," Gingrich said. "You don't want to end up in September with a nominee who has been untested and can't stand it." Huntsman told CNBC Monday night that Romney's firing people remark made him "completely unelectable." He explained, "Words and statements matter and when you are in a heated campaign... I just want to make sure we can get somebody who can go up against Barack Obama and not be chewed up by the political machine that’s going to have a billion dollars to spend on it."

Tuesday morning, USA Today points out, Gingrich told MSNBC that taking Romney's fire-people comment out of context was unfair (though he added, "In debate, do you really want someone who is that clumsy?") And he told Fox News that he wasn't being anti-capitalism, National Journal notes. "I don't think I'm using the language of the left. I'm using the language of classic American populism... Main Street has always been suspicious of Wall Street."
