Romney's comments ripple across battleground map. Mitt Romney's off-handed comment that he doesn't worry about the 47 percent of Americans who pay no income taxes has quickly entered the bloodstream in the presidential campaign's most hard-fought states.
His comment, in a video revealed this week, is prompting expressions of shock — but also shrugs — from Nevada to Florida to New Hampshire and the handful of battleground states in between.

+11There's so much more disgusting remarks that the liar made and I hope the media will talk about it also.
I do find it funny that tax deductions are responsible for most of the reasons these people pay no income tax, those same deductions that the wealthy pay lawyers to find and use for themselves.... So its wrong for less well off to take advantage of tax deductions but not the wealthy? Hell Mitts $77K deduction for his Horse is more then most of these people make in a year. That in itself is obscene....
The Tax Policy Center’s estimate means that some 76 million households won’t pay federal income tax in 2011. About two-thirds pay payroll taxes..
Now will any Conservatives comprehend that statement..
REAL VIDEO PLEASE STAND UP?
Stop with the KNOWN TO BE EDITED version.
Even MotherJones admitted it was ALTERED and that means it's
PROPOGANDA DEFINED.
"The Tax Policy Center’s estimate means that some 76 million households won’t pay federal income tax in 2011. But they still owe other taxes. About two-thirds pay payroll taxes, and most pay state and local income and sales taxes as well as excise taxes on gas, tobacco, cigarettes and alcohol. Of the one third who don’t pay payroll taxes, more than half are elderly who no longer work, and just under half are families with incomes under $20,000. Only about 1 percent of the population pays neither income nor payroll taxes and earns more than $20,000 a year, according to the Tax Policy Center..
"About two-thirds pay payroll taxes,"
Do you understand that means they WORK..
Romney is in hard position. He has to tell his rich funders something entirely different than the people whose votes he needs. This need to be two-faced is not new. Politicians used to say different things to different groups all the time. However, here in the 21st Century, technology, small digital video cameras and the Internet, prevents Romney from telling two different stories.
I also stick by my clams that people will come forward claiming that they are Romney's plural family. Additional children will demand DNA paternity tests. Romney will find he can't hide his DNA like he does his tax returns. That scandal will sink the Romney's ship. Please see:
