The rich are smart and willing to work hard, but they're also not the most ethical people, and the Republican Party wants to help them out.

At least, that's the American public's view of the rich, according to new polling data from the Pew Research Center. And those attitudes could have a profound impact on a presidential election where one of the candidates is known for his vast wealth.

The data show that 71 percent of Americans think Romney's policies would help the wealthy, while 31 percent think they would help the poor. The numbers for President Barack Obama are opposite; 60 percent believe he would help poor people, and 37 percent say the rich.

In addition, a majority of Americans--63 percent--believe the Republican Party favors the rich, while just 23 percent say the middle class and 3 percent say the poor. Meanwhile, 35 percent of Americans believe that Democrats favor the middle class, and 32 percent believe that Democrats favor the poor. Only 20 percent believe that Democrats favor the rich.
