MoveOn's Mr. and Mrs. One-Percent have hit the campaign trail for their "Every Millionaire Counts Tour" following Mitt Romney's bus tour across the country. MoveOn's SUV is called the "Romney Mobile," and even has a dog strapped to the top of the vehicle,(Don't worry, it's not a real dog).

This video follows the team through New Hampshire, and speaks with the people who have turned out to protest Mitt Romney, and to a Romney campaign pancake breakfast where Mr. and Mrs. One-Percent search for "maple truffle pancake syrup," and ask the Romney staff if they have seating available for their butler!

Then be sure to visit Eclectablog to check out the coverage of the Romney bus tour through Michigan, and the comparisons of Romney's campaign stops to those of President Obama. The great photography by Anne Savage is reason enough to take a look.
