Romney's statements have an awful lot of truth to them. Yuo can parse and get hypertechnical to find gaffes. Romney did not say that those who collect SS or Medicare (after paying into those programs) consider themselves to be "victims".
Who is he implying thinks of themselves as victims? Obama's base. Is there some truth to that? Yep. Does every single Obama suporter see themselves as a victim? Nope.
Romney's statement is a hell of a lot more truthful than this blunder by Obama, which the media gave him a pass on (except for Sean Hannity)...
""And it's not surprising then that they (meaning working-class voters in PA whom he was struggling with)get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them...as a way to explain their frustrations,"
I'm concerned about a country that gives Obama a pass for saying teh above, but attacks Romney for un-elegantly stating the truth.
Romney has all the ammunition he needs to gut Obama like a fish in the debates (like, "how do you add $5 trillion to the debt and have a net loss of jobs to show for it", and "where do you get off blowing off the Israeli PM but finding time to have dinner with Jay-Z, whle the Middle East is literally burning). If he doesn't clobber Obama in the debates, and I mean clobber him, this thing is over.
