Right now the stinkin' democrats are thinking... "How can we steal 3%?"

Fortunately those 47% are likely crammed together in major cities that will go to him anyway, so they are lost regardless.

This is why we're a representative republic!

Sure- Count all TSA workers, county, state and federal employees, welfare recipients, those on disability, illegals, public school teachers, administrators, assistants, principals, supervisors of assorted types, school bus drivers, gardeners, cleaning crew, SEIU types, and of course its 47% Obama. How else can anyone justify why one with Obama’s record, a domestic and foreign policy agenda up in smoke and reduced in ashes, would not be behind by 10-15 points against any serious challenger. Add to this the tribal vote of Blacks, Hispanics, and liberal Jews, NARAL, the LGBT crowd, academics, and the trial lawyers association, and it puts Obama over the top. Anyone surprised that Obama will be re-elected and our nation will be over the cliff. Pray this would not happen but prepare for Third World status.

Bizzarro Planet alert. Are we really going down into the hole where everything sensible is denigrated?

This guy is so stupid and out of touch.

The people that collect social security are the most republican age group in America, and what are the military retirees, lefties?

When John Engler was governor of Michigan I saw a lot of people who had lived on welfare for years go to work. Some of it had to do with serious welfare cuts but the economy was much better then and there were jobs for them to go to.

Then there are other issues like the way we have so debased and ridiculed labor plus the everyone must go to college propaganda.

And there are another 5% who are conservatives but swore on their mother’s grave that they’d never vote for Romney.

So Mr. Romney:

WHAT do you plan to do about that 47%?

Because that number is pretty accurate, and it is growing.

Not to worry, we also have those “bitter, small town voters who cling to their guns or religion” and living somewhere in PA who will also pull the lever for Obama. How else to explain why PA always votes Obama and Democratic.

And at what point did basic literacy fail you where you read him saying that?

What he said was the truth and it needs to be said and not run from because if we are not about the truth then we are no different from obama. Romney was right and those 47% will NEVER vote for anyone that is not a redistributionist.

It's easy to ridicule when in many cases welfare pays more than labor jobs and labor jobs pay very well.

I've managed for years and labored for years and presently am a laborer by choice and I make as much as I did when managing and that is nonunion.

What makes you think he's referring to social security and military types?

The Ryan appointment alone belies that judgment.
