Yes, TP. How about some numbers and references to back up your claims.

"There are also a huge percentage that are receiving enough money from the government that it doesn’t make sense for them to find a job and go back to work."

How large is this group? What sort of people make up this group? How much money do they get from the government? Why do they get that money from the government? For how long can they avoid working?

If I were Romney I would play the clip of Obama talking about how he thinks re-distributing wealth is a good thing, and then immediately play the clip of Romney decrying the 47% who pay no federal income taxes, followed by, “I’m Mitt Romney and I approve this message.”

Yes, there is a lot of context that needs to be added, but this is a teachable moment that Romney is missing. Yes, there are plenty of those 47% that are retirees etc. that are receiving their social security and Medicare payments, just as they should. There are also a huge percentage that are receiving enough money from the government that it doesn’t make sense for them to find a job and go back to work.

My fear is that Obama is indeed going to win again because we have become a nation of dependent whiners. If Obama is re-elected, America will indeed go into death-throes because when a plurality, if not quite a majority, of Americans first response to any problem is to ask what the government is going to do to help them solve their issues, we are indeed no longer America. I fear that we have now reached that point, and may God help.
