This ain’t gonna play well with Poles in Pennsylvania, Detroit, Chicago who tend to be blue collar Democrat union members who probably voted for him in 08. They take great pride in their Polish heritage and their Catholic faith. This, along with the recent abortion mandates for Catholic hospitals have got to be making some of them decide to either sit home or go for Romney in November.
Just ask Gerald Ford what happened in 1976, when he had his faux pas regarding the Poles.
I’ve met second generation Polish-Americans from Chicago who came to Warsaw for intensive Polish courses. What was funny was that I could pronounce polish better than they could :-P
