Romney: “Of course I’ll win, I’m the white guy”. Really?

Deborah 2012/05/27 14:35:24
He will win because he's the white guy
Yes, being an idiot has nothing to do with it
Romney's in for a rude awakening
If this is the only choice, NEVER
It's going to be Obama all the way.

What could have been a game changing moment in Mitt Romney’s campaign turned into a horrendous gaffe Tuesday afternoon when the former governor was having lunch with a few of his supporters. Romney was hoping to show America how well he relates to the average working American by having a press recorded lunch at a local pancake house in rural Kentucky where the primary elections were taking place. However, what turned from a nice preplanned lunch with “common-folk conversation” ended up getting off track when one of Romney’s supporters asked him how he was so certain he would win. Romney turned to the man seated on his left and seemingly forgetting the ten plus reporters in the room said, “Well between you and me, we have to think about the reality of the situation. Obama is a popular guy and his supporters are hell-bent in getting him reelected. There is one thing that his campaign seems to keep forgetting over and over, and that is how many Americans can’t stand the guy for an obvious reason. Of course I’ll win, I’m the white guy.”

The Romney supporter looked at Romney with a look of agreement yet bewilderment. The chatter within the room got quite loud as reporters grabbed at their phones and took rapid notes. It’s not every day that a candidate is so brutally honest with his supporters.

One of Romney’s aides quickly tapped the former governor on the shoulder and whispered something into his ear. Romney’s face had a stone cold expression that can only be described as terrified. After talking with his aide for a minute or so, Romney turned back to the table and smiled saying, “It’s a good thing we all know how to take a joke here, huh? Of course the reason that I know I’m going to win in because I’m the guy that will stand up for true conservative values and economic prosperity. Which of course is what the American people will want come November.
After Romney finished speaking he stood up from the table and was ushered outside to a waiting car. In hopes that he was able to successfully spin his verbal gaffe, Romney made sure to get a spot on Fox News’ Hannity as soon as possible to further clear up any “liberal spin” that may occur.

Only time will tell if he can recover from this clear opinion of his true beliefs in why he thinks he will win this upcoming November.http://www.freewoodpost.com/2012/05/22/romney-of-course-ill-w...Romney  u201COf course I u2019ll win I u2019m the white guy u201D Really

    You are aware that this was a satire piece correct? This never even happened. Free wood post does satire pieces.

    Sigh, some people should not be allowed to surf satirical sites such as the onion and free wood posts.

    It is already turned around. We are no longer losing jobs. I have hired over 50 new workers in the last yr. Maybe it hasn't happen for your businesses yet but we are hiring again!

    My company never went under. We do re paints and our company grew because of it. It doesn't change the fact many lost their jobs because of Obama. If Obama remains even more will. I'll tell you straight up and I run one of the most Successful painting companies in Tucson but I'll be shutting my doors.

    Classy!

    Did he forget the events of 2008? I mean, really, there are tons of reasons why Obama might lose, but I don't think his opponent being "a white guy" is very high on the list at this point.

    Thank goodness the person he was talking to was dumbstruck too.

    He didn't really say that, right? This is a joke (a very bad one). I mean, it's really unbelievably, jaw-droppingly stupefying.

    I know. Free wood is funny as hell. I read it a lot. I read the Onion too, but it just isn't real. Its not meant to be serious. Now all these people on here are all shocked and horrified, and it didn't happen.

    Its almost funny if it weren't so sad.

    Because it is satire. No one could reasonably believe it happened.

    Same reason SNL doesn't get sued for impersonating politicians in a satirical manner.

    Anti-intellectuals rarely see any indications of intellect -- anywhere. It's like being tone deaf.
