Is Romney's election bid over?

Yes, he just lost his shirt and the presidency

It's hard to say. More than likely this will be a bump (maybe a big one) in the road. As we get further from this incident, we'll see how it affects his poll numbers.

No BUT - his bid is "hurting for certain"... the final nail in his bid will be the debates

NOT quite...But just about....After the debates his loss will be sealed...If his campaign could only erase thier candidate and start ALL over...LOL...

It's still anyone's race at this time.

Wow...it is great to hear a candidate speak the truth...i agree with Mitt..
One and done.... bark

Here is the graph of the 47% -- a.k.a. "non-payers" -- by state. The ten states with the highest share of "non-payers" are in the states colored red. Most are in southern (and Republican) states. Meanwhile, the 13 states with the smallest share of "non-payers" are in blue. Most are northeastern (and Democratic) states.



So, Mitt is wrong in assuming that this 47% will vote for Obama, the non-payers are voting republicans... The GOP base is as brain-dead as zombies IMO...

Don't pay with liberal stuff with me.... voters are not stupid enough to give this
inexperienced comm org...four more years to screw up America... return this to me on morning of November 7th....One and done...bark

Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passion, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence. - John Adams.

Reality is a bitch no? ;o)

Love it!!!!!!Great response....

MrDog wants me to return him the graph on november 7th... I wonder why, does he think that TX, AR, NM, LA, MS and the rest of the red states are going to vote for Obama??? Obama will be reelected with a landslide in the bible belt and near 80% of the votes???

The funniest part is that he probably thinks that I'm a democrat, a socialo-communist liberal or some other nasty creature hell bent on destroying america... Well, sorry to disappoint, again, but I'm not... I'm just a guy who can aknowledge the truth, even if I don't like it... I'm a Ron Paul fan.

Facts is what mitt said is true...voters know it too.... but liberal media twist it to fit their view of choices...big bro or small bro.... this is the choice in 12..bark

p.s. How is 16 tri. deficit working for you....and who is paying for it....47% no taxes..think...

MrDog, the deficit is another matter, a very important one granted, but unrelated to the 47% comment of Mitt.

It is true that 47% don't pay, what isn't is the statement that they all are voting Democrat and that thay all feel entitled to "health care, house, food, you name it" (as he said)... Of this 47% in 2011 there were 7000 millionnaires who abused loopholes and foreign shores accounts for crying out loud!! The rest, are the poor, and the poorest states vote Republican (MS, LA, AL, etc). Do you really believe that MS, LA and the other southern states will vote democrat??? Sorry to say this but if you do, you're delusionnal...

As for the deficit, let's start by closing the too many offshore military bases, bring back the troops, and bring the tax rate to what it was under Clinton...

When you have a deficit, of course you have to reduce your spending, but you don't cut your revenues too, it's like saying ok, I'll stop spending on movies, restaurants, I'll sell the second car and live on Kraft dinner, but i'll quit my job (revenue cut). It just doesn't make sense...

I should have added that on the welfare matter that big corporations and business have a huge impact on this too... THEY are the ones who feel entitled to their subsidies or corporate welfare... As Mitt say "Corporations are people my friend.". So I say let's get them off welfare too...

When less people pay taxes than the people taking from the government...
the rubber meets the road... we are greece...bark

What does this have to do with the comment of Mitt on the 47% feeling "entitled to everything" and not voting for him?

Dodging the question? ...meow

Zero money... zero freeloaders... you haven't understood that yet?
bark

I do, and I agree... But this doesn't make the 47% remark any less untrue...

I support the remark... it was talking about campaign reality...
surely you are wise enough to understand it..hello..bark

LOL...Hahahahahhahahahaha...Now facts now have politics....So that means lies do too....Welcome to the world of stupidity....Hahahahahahahahh...

"Don't pay with liberal stuff with me.... voters are not stupid enough to..."

So wait, Sir_Smoksaloth just posted a factual graph and that's your response? Ummm... are you a voter?

Greg "The jokes just write themselves" P.

B I N G O!!!!!!!!

digging awful hard aren't you??

lol seriously? I don't have to. It's very easy to identify Mitt's stupidity and ineptitude

Greg P.

yeah..and good old Bammy sure is helping out America ; isn't he?

You tell me?

Greg P.

I don't need to tell you anything; we just lost 2500 jobs in this area; 1200 today; in the coal industry, because of your "God-like" worship of this terrible president and his job killing EPA...

I believe so

We should be that lucky.

And these are hardly moronic comments.

Democrats favor large government. I'm shocked Democrats take umbrage at being defined for what they are.

the truth hurts

1) See graph Sirsmokasloth posted 2) Pull head out of ass

Greg P.

The rich mans disdain for the poor,and middle class finely came out,this was the final nail in his coffen.

and what does the rich president think; that America should be fools because he speaks?

There both idiots, Obama is the least of the two,I'm not voting for President this year,my conscious won't allow it,and i know a lot of people who feel the same way!

i don't think his latest blunder will end his
bid.anything can happen. we still have the
anticipated "october surprise" to look forward to.
obama by a nose in november.

LMAO...That was too funny. Just like Romney to do something stupid thinking it will work.

indeed.
it's funny how most in the gop
really don't support the guy.the
fact that he's the best they have to
offer four years after mccain says a
lot for the future of their party.

True and considering the fact that the guy lost to McCain in 08' really says how bad things are in the GOP camp, when they have to pull up a second stringer after the starter lost in 08'. It's all going down hill.
