The Romney campaign has been accused of deliberately getting the Republican presidential candidate booed by black people during his NAACP speech to attract votes 'in certain racist precincts', by MSNBC host Lawrence O'Donnell.
Romney was booed for 15 seconds at the National Association for the Advancement of Coloured People conference in Houston on Wednesday when he stated he would 'eliminate' unnecessary programmes like the Obamacare health reform.
Democrats united in saying that Romney planned to get booed to appeal to his conservative base. But O'Donnell and his guests went a step further by saying that Romney was making a play for white racists.

But, otoh, if Romney is that really clever he certainly ought be elected President since obviously he will do a bang up job.
ya....Romney was behind 20 to 80 in that demographic....
Maybe he deliberately got booed for the NAACP to appeal to black racists!
This story about Romney getting booed is totally blown out of proportion. It should be a non-story. I hate the mainstream media.
and the hapless NAACP members could do nothing but fall prey to such a clever plan.
Do these people realize how utterly shameless and idiotic they sound?
The sad part is that O’Donnell’s race baiting and hateful comments about the entire Mormon Church get reported as if they make sense! These people in the media are truly evil and are not constrained by any notion of right and wrong.
Those same racists paid NAACP members not to attend Joe Biteme’s speech today. < /sarc >
Rush claimed that Romney received a standing ovation at the end of his remarks.
But that is a moot point. The news blurb on this story played the sound byte of Romney getting booed.
It really doesn’t matter what Romney or Obama say or do. What really matters is what the news services say they do.
Rush and everybody else are in the noise.
Romney deliberately got himself booed at the NAACP? Wow, wow, wow. This is beyond reaching for an explanation. This is so far beyond stupid, they can’t even catch a bus back to stupid.
Now just imagine the headlines if Romney had winked at the audience and told them he was actually for Obama-care. The same libs would be screaming about what a hypocrite Romney was, and that he was a liar who would dismantle Obama-care as soon as he got into office. Sometimes you have to question the sanity of libs.
O’Donnell is a raving lunatic. This is no surprise.
Good one!
I was taken aback when I heard a radio news report that Romney said that what he would say in his speech had the black’s “best interests in mind.” That really sounded patronizing to me. Does he really want to project to minorities that “Romney Knows Best?”
That is a shameless raving lunitic.
Then there’s this.

It doesn’t take much to offend the NAALCP and make them boo.
