That is the part that seems vague to this person.

Yes, the republicans are in trouble when you have to come here to explain what he meant. That has been happening every time he opens his mouth someone has to explain it to the common folks.

Mitt is now telling the South Florida Latinos, it was Obama that made him diss the 47% by being so divisive.

Well, then, lucky you!

I really hope nothing catastrophic ever happens to your family.
Hope you don't lose your job
Hope your wife/husband doesn't die
Hope your kids don't develop a disease that requires long hospital stays

Glad to see you had several crystal balls there and knew, when you had your children, that nothing bad would ever happen to your family.

Let me tell you something else.

I don't understand why conservatives think liberals aren't responsible for themselves. A few years ago my neighbor paid a quarter-million dollars just for the LAND next to my property and then built a house that is now worth in the high $700k range. He's a liberal. Most people in New Jersey are liberals. We have money. We work hard and provide for our families. Conservatives act as if all liberals are on the dole, and it's just not true. Why do conservatives keep spreading these lies? Maybe it's to feel superior to others, but it just makes them look out of touch with reality. Similar to Mitt Romney. I wonder why conservatives blindly adore him. Maybe they think he cares about them? Remember, to Mitt, $250,000/year is MIDDLE CLASS. Where does that leave you, I wonder?

Yeah, well as a conservative speechwriter/pundit she's SUPPOSED to attack the other team. It is more remarkable to see her administer her boot to the hindquarters of her own team.

Perhaps because that is not the topic of the thread.

...and Republicans?

Nevada Sen. Dean Heller and Brown both stood by statements distancing themselves from the party standard-bearer.

"It's not how I think. I think that people who are in those situations are not there by choice," Brown said. "I'm going after every person's vote, regardless of their economic station in life, regardless of their political party."

"I have a very different view of the world. I believe that the federal government has certain responsibilities," Heller said. "I also believe in a safety net for individuals that need the help. So that's why I would respectfully disagree with the comments that he made."
