I simply refuse to believe that nearly 100% of those dependent on the government are 100% lockdown Obama voters. I know some of these people and they don’t believe their situation is permanent and Furthermore, they sure the hell won’t vote for Obama.
Very true. There are tons of people out there who, due to the flaccid economy, are downright ashamed that they pretty much had no choice but to accept some form of government assistance. They want to work, but there is just so little job creation.
Obama’s lead over Romney among low income voters is only around 15%, and taking into account the low percentage of poor people that even do vote, clearly these are different slices of the 47%.
What percentage does he think is reasonable. He has included the military, police officers, fire fighters, all government workers and, social security recipients. All painted with a broad brush of being lazy and irresponsible and Obama voters. I don’t think he meant it that way but that is why he has to clarify so many of his statements. Maybe if he had given some thought to a solution he could have been more effective.
