If it is clear then why did Romney react the way he did, and couldn’t explain it, nor any of his supporters.
Collecting a government check has nothing to do with voting democrat, nor does not owing taxes in a given year.
The military, the SS collecting age group, retired military, probably most of the federal law enforcement and retired, are majority GOP voters, many of us good old boys who don’t owe any income taxes are also right wingers.
The social security crowd, many of whom owe no taxes are a majority GOP vote.
No candidate should be so dismissive of half of America, Romney lost because he is an out of touch idiot, with no connection to the American people, statements like that highlight that disconnect.
Romney did say it was edited.
He could not go after the guy personally for illegal taping because that would look worse, but it isn’t his job to go after that guy for that. The DA in Florida should have hauled the guy into jail, especially when it went national IMO.
