  - Only 47% of them. -- nm - CovingtonCat Sep 17, 17:08 1
    - seems "odd" to me to use "unforantley" and "americans" and "parents" in the same sentence -- nm - DaneDukeNuuk Sep 17, 17:09
- This is where Romney loses are 3-4 news cycles trying to explain... again. -- nm - Mop on Mac Pro Sep 17, 17:02 1
  - He is saving the talk about the bad economy for after the election. It's his ace in the hole. -- nm - Bacon Sep 17, 17:17
- What was that even supposed to mean? - Will Hunting Sep 17, 16:58 13

  - He kinda reminds of he 480p troll. I never understand his metaphors. -- nm - David Sep 17, 17:03
  - I think he was talking to the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, so it may have been a pandering line but it feels akin to attacks on Affirmative Action - ty97 Sep 17, 17:01 3

Don Homer mentioned this last board. Here's Romney saying 47% of voters are dependent on government and believe themselves to be victims. -- (link) - CovingtonCat Sep 17, 15:51 19
- So if I'm dependent on the government (Social Security) but have a substantial tax liability - who should I vote for? -- nm - Meg Sep 17, 16:26 4
  - another good point. I'd *really* love to see a breakdown of this stat by income, age, state, etc. -- nm - Reagen Sep 17, 17:05

    - I get why it's a problem how he's saying it, how he's basically writing off half the country. - ty97 Sep 17, 16:46 5
      - I think you're mis-hearing the video. He's talking about 47% of the electorate - Obama's core supporters. -- nm - CovingtonCat Sep 17, 16:58 1
        
        I'd call that a yes and a no, but I don't think the yes part makes him look any better - Reagen Sep 17, 17:04
      - Yeah, it's a little too "bluntly" put. Not quite a "cling to guns and religion" moment for him... - Dr.Vermin Sep 17, 16:49 2
        
        Let's not attribute full factualness to him. 47% don't pay income tax, okay. But he equated that 47% to the 47% of people who will vote for Obama. - ty97 Sep 17, 16:56 1
        
        Ignore my reply to you above. You did hear correctly. -- nm - CovingtonCat Sep 17, 16:59
  - It's one thing to say that, and it's another to say that that means they're dependent on the government - Reagen Sep 17, 16:00 1
    - I was making no defense for that part. -- nm - ty97 Sep 17, 16:47
- I'm a victim, too. -- nm - Anne Romney Sep 17, 15:52

- agreed. -- nm - Remlik Sep 17, 15:18 7
  - Claudia Black, too. -- nm - David Sep 17, 15:24 6
    - yep. Though I recall her saying she's kind of retired and is really just doing voice work for games and whatnot and she's a jazz singer -- nm - Remlik Sep 17, 15:34
    - (By contrast, I would have guessed closer to 39 for Browder than the 49 he is) -- nm - Reagen Sep 17, 15:28 1
      - David and I just had the same conversation (about both of them). -- nm - Kim Pine Sep 17, 15:29
    - I'm surprised to learn that she's only 39 - Reagen Sep 17, 15:26 2
      - She's a great example of how slinky, rough and experienced-looking can be wildly attractive. - David Sep 17, 15:45 1
