He only flip-flipped on this because his poll numbers were down so much and he has nothing to lose by trying it. He still has major disdain and disgust for 47% of Americans. His flip-flop is just another name for lying.
It is not a flip flop it is creatively interpreted by Dems for political adbvantage. it is more of a literal vs figurative interpretation.
It is very frustrating to hear obama, a lawyer and wordsmith, use this blanket techinque to charge MR with eliminating Dodd-Frank, EPA regs and Obamacare and concluding that all elelments, good and bad will be eliminated. MR wants to poison everyone. MR wants to take away all medical benefits from the poor and seniors, MR wants to allow the banks to operate without any regulations. MR wants to tax the middle class to save the 'rich'.
Really, this is the stuff of dark age politics and corruption. who wants a leader who resorts to distortion to win support? Who wants a leader who has staffed his administration with liars. DWS and Stephanie Cutter. absolute proven liars the media just chose to ignore.
Ony a mindless minion or paid rabid political strategist would engage in such despicable behavior. It is crystal clear the targeted audience for this strategy is the less than informed, non critical thinking portion of the electorate.
This absolute, zero threshold strategy launched a socio-political agenda applied to sex, gender and race politics. It creates an equivalence between croos burner, lynch mobs and some guy in a bar telling a joke about a woman.
To see a flip flop see any one of Obama's back flips available by the dozen on utube. No creative interpretive ability required.
You do know that Romney is a harvard lawyer too don't you?
He was dumb enough to think that no one in the room would record what he said. (That alone should tell us a lot about his intelligence.) So, since he though it was just between him and the other Republicans in his little circle (all having disdain for poor people, the elderly, and the disabled), he stood up in front of his fat cat friends and said, basically, "They're all leeches and whiners!"
Oops. Turns out the people he was whining about are citizens of this country who actually vote. And he got called on one of the most stupid remarks in presidential campaign history. So what happens? Mitt gets in front of a camera he knows is turned on:
"Well...... Of course I didn't mean that. *tries to sound indignant that we'd even think he wasn't all warm and sincere* You all know I respect the voters. *clears throat* That's not what I actually meant *adjusts tie* I was wrong. *throws up in wastebasket* How 'bout them Cowboys?"
Romney told the truth when he made his 47% remarks.
And it's rather hypocritical to accuse him of flip-flopping when you don't hold Obama accountable for saying that if he doesn't turn the economy around by his third year he wouldn't deserve re-election.
If he told the truth, then why not stick with it, why flip flop? I'll tell you why, because he was told to say that he was wrong and as the sheep that he is, he obeyed.

He did tell the truth. He does not care about 47% of the public. He flip flopped because that was only supposed to told to the wealthy few. He was exposed and now he says that he was wrong.
