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

They say President Obama has done nothing? WOW! How blind! How biased! Also, realize whatever he HAS accomplished has been with more opposition than ANY president has ever faced! How do you get anything done when the entire other party, which is also supposed to be concerned about all the people in our country, are bound and determined from day one to BLOCK everything you try to do. Suppose the Republicans had honestly tried to find some workable ground. Imagine what could have been accomplished. They cared NOTHING about pushing the country FURTHER to the brink in their effort to destroy this President! HMMMM! I wonder why?
Also, wouldn't it be great if all the billions of dollars that are being spent on crazy politicking was actually spent on improving the economy in our country. WOW! What a difference that could make!
I pray that people will really look into their own hearts and see what hidden hatred lies there! I pray that we will really listen to who cares about this country!
Oh, yes, I want to see Mitt Romney's birth certificate! I can't believe he was born in MY city!

America Research your candidates more!!
ps... I love the "satire" comment, lol! Wonder how many are going to take this "sooo seriously"? LOL!
It was not because the Bush administration was a disaster, it was because McCain & Palin were Jokes.
There were more registered Republican voters in the US.
It was the GOP who did not want McCain or he'd be President. GOP Failed.
http://elections.nytimes.com/...
He was finishing his second term and was not eligible.
The GOP lost because they choose not to vote for McCain and bimbo... pure and simple... Of course the independent were rallying for other candidates and some didnt vote for president at all... The GOP LOST Because it chose to not vote for McCain, Just as Romney will lose this election, because they will choose not to vote for him.
You can make all the excuses you want why Obama won the election, None of them were the reason why I voted for him, the final nail in the 2008 GOP Bid for presidency's coffin was delivered by the GOP party itself.
Or that I am misrepresenting why I voted?
LOL
What are we gonna see? The GOP fail its party again by not electing their last and only choice for President, Romney...LOL
The pols are there... Look at em...See the 2008 polls, Dems aren't gonna make the same mistake they did in 2010 by abstaining from voting, their anger at the Obama administration cost them dearly in representation and policy in 2010.
No crystal ball needed here.
.
How a large newspaper could change everyone's mind across this great country were it makes only enough papers to reach 0.03% is giving them a little more credit then they deserve.
I think you stepped in it and are trying to blame someone else for the stench in the room.
The only radical person in this whole campaign is Mitt and you nut cases keep saying radical, but none of you bloviating ignorant xenophobes can name one radical thing he has done and i suspect you will never be able to name them. So good bye

The comic delivery in the "radicalness" of Obama conservative irony.... If you have not seen the episode, the video is also available at the link above.
LOL
And I agree with your comment
http://endoftheamericandream....
Now you tell me who is facilitating the communist here in the USA?
As for me parroting those two? I don't even know who they are.
And like the right is not full of hateful people. What are you smoking?
