It’s hard to be honest in politics. Perhaps that has been Gov. Mitt Romney’s real problem all along. Romney’s candor came out in a recent conference call that was reported by the New York Times in which he said that President Obama offered free “gifts” to both illegal aliens and American citizens. Romney’s observation about rewarding illegal aliens with citizenship and giving free benefits to people exploiting the system is not the same as criticizing minorities—but for decades the Left has manipulatively used racism, sexism and discrimination to intimidate the Republican Party into cowering into the aimless, weak institution that it has become today. When Romney made the highly publicized ‘47 percent’ comment during a Boca Raton fundraiser in September, he was obviously making reference to the fact that it was not a campaign priority to reach out to that sect of the population for votes. He was right because most of those people were not going to vote for him anyway.

The “47%” private remark, and I emphasize PRIVATE, as well as the “I like to fire people” comment, have been pounded into our heads by the MSM and it is the only reason they are remembered everywhere, including unfortunately here, unlike the many compromising and traitorous remarks by Obamessiah, chronologically starting perhaps with the complaints to his mother that he was working for the “enemy” during his short stint in private sector, and now we have reminders about Romney’s illegal gardeners, too, who, I suppose, took the jobs of hard working American software engineers. Shame!
Imagine this past election if the “enemy” complaint had been advertised by the MSM in the same way and as much as 47%!
To defeat the King, you have to kill him. In electoral terms, you have to really destroy the President, make him a joke, expose him and make him a wounded duck. Then, people will flock to the alternative. Until then, they are afraid of being on the losing side.
