So now Romney is concerned about "100%" of Americans, and Hispanics too?

That's the news that showed up on my teevee machine this morning when I turned it on. Screen caption showed "The 100%" superimposed over video of a Boehner-orange Romney lying to group of people some where?

I got whiplash. And he's peddling a kinder, gentler version of his lies. How stupid does he think people are?

He is apparently quite concerned that 47% of them aren't working hard enough and taking responsibility for their lives. He is also clearly concerned that 2 or 3% of them aren't rich enough. I am not really sure about the others, but he may be concerned that some are not taxed enough, and others are taxed and regulated too much...

One thing is clear though, ask him tomorrow and it will all be different.

He's getting desperate and, honestly, I don't think he can get much lower. There is a sizable portion of the country that will vote for Romney no matter what and this sort of thing will do little to change their minds.
