Probably the same thing that makes liberals think that black people are incapable of obtaining an ID to comply with voter ID laws.

If Obamacare doesn't get repealed or fixed, Santorum will have been spot on. We'll be trapped in Obamacare with no way out.

Most people thinking people will not vote for a man who runs on a platform of being a job creator but yet took joy in firing people and bankrupting companies. People who think on thier own would wonder why a presidential candidate would rarely mention their record as governor of a state that he once ran into the ground.
If you are black and you are OK with this, you are brain dead. I'm not saying that this is a huge issue but what he said was incredibly insensitive and condescending. Stop being so willfully ignorant. Or are you that dumb that you don't realize when you have been insulted.

It's a disgrace, but black people it up. Absolutely disgusting.
I agree the silence is impressive.... Had any other white man in the USA said a thing like that, it would be a good 6 months of msnbc, et.al., media and hype with every Black racist we know getting his word in edgewise.
