Stephanopoulos to RNC Chair: Is Romney ‘In Denial’ Over the State of His Campaign?
Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus appeared on ABC with George Stephanopoulos Sunday to discuss the state of the U.S. presidential race– and the “secret” video of Mitt Romney discussing the “47%” of Americans unlikely to vote for him.
The video, which also includes a discussion of the Federal Reserve, has been interpreted by many as an admission that Mitt Romney does not care about the poor.
Discussing those who do not pay income taxes, the Republican nominee said: “There are 47% of the people who will vote for the president no matter what…There are 47% who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them…[M]y job [is] not to worry about those people. I’ll never convince them they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives.”
Speaking with RNC Chair Reince Priebus, Stephanopoulos said voters will be hearing about the video “every single day” until the election, and that the Romney campaign may be in “denial” over the state of the race.
Watch the interview, via Mediaite, below:
Priebus said the past week has been “defining” for both Mitt Romney and Barack Obama, as the two crystallize around their central issues.
Without mentioning the crisis sweeping the Middle East and parts of Europe, Priebus said: “What kind of future do we want for our kids and grand kids? … Do we want the cradle-to-grave, ‘life of Julia,’ ObamaCare, we’ll take care of you from preschool to death America? Or do we want [a] return [to] opportunity, liberty, freedom…?”
Soon after, Stephanopoulos read a number of comments from Peggy Noonan at the Wall Street Journal in which she ripped Mitt Romney as “incompetent,” “too small for the moment,” and a “rolling calamity.”
“I know that Gov. Romney says his campaign doesn’t need a turnaround, but is he in denial?” Stephanopoulos asked.
While Priebus said he respects and admires those who are concerned about the Romney campaign, he was clear that the Republican is running “a different kind of campaign.”
Priebus explained: “I promise you on my life, I’m not sitting here talking to you because I’m worried about the future of the Republican Party…we’re worried about the future of this country.”

Posted on September 23, 2012 at 8:43pmAll we need to do to win is this…
A one minute campaign commercial that starts off showing Obama teamed up with ACORN back in the 90s charging banks with racism and threatening to boycott unless they reduce their lending standards and begin lending to lower income and minorities who would otherwise not qualify for a mortgage under the 20 percent down and good credit requirement. Then show their hero Bill Clinton amending the Community Reinvestment Act in 99 forcing banks to lend to this group. The next scene will be of the republicans warning fat face Barney Frank, Frank Reins, that raciest Waters, and the other dummy democrats that this will be big trouble and could lead to a financial crisis. Then show modern day Obama as president blaming Bush and deregulation as the cause of the current state of the economy. Obama is so tied into the mortgage meltdown, the people need to know this.

Yea….how was the campaign you were in with Bill-bj-cigar-Clinton? Oh, yea, that was Bill being Bill. Why sure….give the pervert a pass…even when he lies under oath before all of the American People. Romney tells the truth and he is told his campaign is dead, over, lost, out of it, on and on and on. Wow! Do we have our work cut out for us….cause the drones out there believe all that crap-o-la they heard at the dem convention. Even if the drones didn’t watch the lying convention, they will still believe anything the loser dems tell them. Anyone who wants to even think about taking God out of the dem platform and not having Jerusalem the capitol of Israel is totally evil. We all know who was the leader in leaving God out. It all started with o-loser. Then o-loser gave his arrogant nod to have them vote God back.in. Wow! I bet that made God’s day.

IN their stated opinion EVERYONE has the right to own the American Dream of ownership…..regardless of their ability to re-pay a mortgage. THEY are the ones that created “Stated Income and liar loans”, then dirivitives, selling throughtout the world. They, Barney then threatened> IF you DON’T lend to poor people….you will be fined by the regulating agencies. Create an enormous bubble…Property going up 10-20% per month….then pop it. 100% contrived, initiated and delivered by the pro gress ives. Then….of course blame the other guys. Here we are.

Posted on September 23, 2012 at 10:23pmRomney is not denial. He knows his campaign is tanking. He knows how poorly his recent statement have been received by the American voter. His attacks against the President are not working. The economy is improving, people still blame Bush for the Great Recession, and Romney continues to show that he’s the Draco Malfoy of the Republican party – he’s led a rich, privileged life and thinks that if someone doesn’t pay federal income tax (like our soldiers, our elderly, our poor) that they are moochers and inferior people. Half the United States are moochers in the Ayn Rand definition.
Romney isn’t in denial, but he has yet to offer any reason to vote for him except he’s not President Obama.
By the way, how is he going to cut taxes for the richest, increase military spending AND reduce the deficit? Where are the details “coming out our eyeballs” on that fantasy?

Posted on September 23, 2012 at 10:45pmYou said it, the democrats are responsible for all the economic problems in this country! It all basically started with FDR, then Johnson and the great society – ever since people were taken care of by the government (so called big brother) they have become lazy and content with letting others foot the bill. What is really sad and scary is, the government has planned this all along. A lot of democrats were nieve thinking this was just to help people but they soon learned that buying votes wasn’t so bad – this has been growing election after election – the worse thing is some republicans fell into the extortion also! If you really want to know the plan read Clower & Piven. Their idea was to burden the government with so much debt that American could not sustain itself. I do believe we are at that point. The communist said they would bury us from within and they are succeeding!
I find that the more that we fall away from God, the more our country looks like a forsaken 3rd world country. I wish American Christians would turn away from the evils of this world and turn to the one who gave us His Son Jesus so that we could have eternal life. I believe God also gave us America, a beautiful land and He then gave us FREEDOM from the blood and sacrifice of our Founding Fathers. II Cronicles 7:14

Posted on September 24, 2012 at 12:29amHere’s how you win the Hispanic vote Mitt.
Keep repeating how the Obama administration is responsible for deaths of thousands of Mexican’s inside Mexico from an illegal gun running operation carried out without the Mexican government’s knowledge.
If the Romney campaign states the number of deaths at say, 20,000 the press might take notice. If not just keep increasing the number until they do. If you hit them with a big enough stick it’ll get they’re attention.
Repeat the claim in your debates, on the campaign trail and in interviews, even if the topic isn’t brought up.
(Example)
Q. “So, what is your position on racists in the Republican Party Mr. Romney”.
A. “I believe the Obama camp set out to disparage gun owners in this country and ended up causing the slaughter of ten’s of thousands of Mexicans in Mexico”. I’m not the one killing Mexican’s in Mexico, Barack Obama is.
Q. “Taxes Mr. Romney”

I really don’t get where you people come from saying, “How is he better than Obama?” Are you serious?! Have you looked around at all? How hard is it to understand this? Who’s really in denial here? Just the fact that he’s Romney and not Obama is more than enough for me. And let me be clear, I am not the biggest Romney fan, but he is by default better than Obama.

Even the Democrats won’t deny the numbers, they’ll just pretend they don’t matter when they do. You write: “More jobs will reduce the debt and government policies do create both private and public sector jobs.” More jobs *paid for* by the government do not reduce the debt! And you also backed up what I said when you mentioned “government policies.” I totally agree that “government policies” can help businesses create jobs. I disagree that more government SPENDING, which is what *you* want, creates jobs or reduces debt like you claim.

That is karma. Welcome to how it works when you are going against an establishment candidate. You see, in the primary the media told all the republicans that it was ‘mitt romney’s primary’ and that his nomination was ‘inevitable’. They told everyone that supporting Gingrich, Santorum, Paul, etc was a losing proposition – thereby creating their own self-fullfilling prophecy.
These are the media tricks the Romney campaign used in the primary – and now that tool is being used against them

Posted on September 23, 2012 at 8:22pmAll of us know that all politicians seem to favor those who contribute to them. That is the nature of the beast, but in this case, we got to get Obama out and most of America knows that. Those who would not vote for America to stay strong will likely not vote any way. This is going to go to the wire, except the Democrats are going to cheat themselves into office if they can. They have invested too much to do what is right, the right way, for they are thugs and know if they lose they have a payday coming.

Posted on September 23, 2012 at 8:20pmGeorge you are an idiot. First of all the 47% comment is absolutely correct. What do you think the percentage of blacks that will vote Obama because he is black is? If Romney in too small for the moment then what do we call Obama? It’s obvious to anyone with a brain or the honesty to admit it that the president is a complete failure.

Posted on September 23, 2012 at 8:19pmWho really cares about that video. It is nothing but the truth. They never heard the whole thing. Those Democrats are everything and then some of what they accuse everyone else of being. Nevermind that stupid video. You all know it, I know it and most everyone else knows it that there are those who will vote for Obama because they are duped into thinking they are going to get freebies. The percentage remains to be seen. Who really knows. I know people who have just enough to get by on who are voting for Romney because he is principaled and has had some raising. Obama is a thug.

Posted on September 23, 2012 at 8:19pmAre We Better Off Now Than We Were 4 Years Ago?
1.) Unemployed Americans since President Obama took office……Up by almost half a million people
2.) Unemployment rate is up by 3.8% since President Obama took office
3.) Long term unemployment is up by 87% since Obama took office
4.) Middle class income is down by $3,960.00
5.) Gas prices up 107%
6.) Home values down by 11% since Obama took office
7.) Worker health insurance costs up 23% since Obama took office
8.) Sending your kids to college since Obama was inaugurated….up 25%
9.) Americans living in poverty increased by 6.4 million since Obama took office
10.) Food stamp recipients increased by 46% since President Obama took office
11.) Consumer price index (inflation) is up 9.1% since Obama took office
12.) Federal debt is up 51% since Obama took office
13.) The United States ranked #1 in Global Competitiveness the day Obama walked into office. Since his inauguration….we have declined to #7
I wonder if these economic stats are of any importance to the American people. If the American people want 4 more years of a self inflicted ass whipping. More power to them.

Posted on September 23, 2012 at 9:33pmAs a business person, Romney understands how performance metrics enable us to see how good a job a President has done. By any measure, Obama has been a total failure. No amount of liberal spin can change that.

Posted on September 23, 2012 at 11:07pmYou are right on! Demo-crap’s own internal polling showed Ovomit losing the election. They couldn’t debate the issues so it became personal attacks and now attempts to convince voters that Romney has no chance.
I guess we’ll all know on Nov 7th
VOTE anyone but Ovomit!

Posted on September 24, 2012 at 2:04am“Stephanopoulos to RNC Chair: Is Romney ‘In Denial’ Over the State of His Campaign?”
George, you’re in denial over the state of Barry’s campaign. September was a disaster for Barry and that’s a fact and you know it. Even the MSM is having a hard time of it, making Barry look good, to the point they are truely exposing themselves for the liers they have become. Barry’s been puffing on more exploding cigars, where he’s beginning to look like ‘Fireman Bill’ (Jim Carrey character in living color) at skit’s end. George is just trying to give libs more false hope and right now they need it..

Posted on September 23, 2012 at 8:17pmI continue to torture myself reading these lengthy articles about which candidate is better equiped to deal with the budget, foreign policy, abortion, OBAMACARE, or whatever they bring up. I am still convinced that the ONLY issue that is basically on the minds of the voters is the 47%. I strongly believe that the folks that want to continue the free ride will vote for Obama and the rest of us folks who are sick and tired of supporting the 47% will vote for Romney. The end.

Posted on September 23, 2012 at 8:24pmjust so you know, there are a lot of poor and lower income people that vote republican. You can find them everywhere….You think republicans carry Alabama with the rich vote? LOL
Also, people on social security are a big republican voting block – but they are part of the 47%
Our country is not as black and white as people like Mitt Romney think it is

Posted on September 23, 2012 at 8:29pmApparentl I said something Blaze didn’t like. Let’s try this again, Romney did not say anything that was not the truth. The leeches on society will vote for Obama period. And for Biden to try to throw the men and women in harms way in Afganistan into the mix is shameful. He knows right well that Romney was not talking about them. Here is a warning to those of you that think entitlement programs are a great thing. Pretty soon those of us who bust our butts so others can abuse the system are just gonna quit and stay home also. Then you are gonna find out that your government never had any money of their own.

Posted on September 23, 2012 at 8:40pmIt depends on what your definition is of the 47%. I am only going by the definition used in the statement by Mr. Romney. I don’t believe he was including the retired individuals on Social Security as “victims.” He is very clear in his statement as to what 47% he is talking about. Not all low income people are on the government payroll. Just the 47% that feel the government owe them something.

The 47% that everyone refers to means someone receives more in benefits than they pay in taxes. That includes ALL benefits. If you take away social security and medicare, the number of people goes down to something like 30%.

Posted on September 23, 2012 at 8:14pmGeorge Stephanopolus should have been a moderator in the debates, he is a very good reporter. All Romney can do is be in denial because the GOP is in danger of losing the house, senate, and presidency thanks to Todd Akin’s remarks. Romney isn’t ready for the presidency at the moment.

Posted on September 23, 2012 at 8:13pmI guess I’m just too stupid to understand politics?? Has Romney done ANYTING wrong? Has he said ANYTHING that isn’t ture? Obama on the other had has the FAILED middle east tied to his neck. I know the media has a liberal slant but I just don’t think the average American does. If we re-elect this failure then we really will be getting what a stuip and uninformed society deserves.

Posted on September 24, 2012 at 3:53amYou are totally right. The media is out of control as they are actively campaigning for Obama who has been a dismal failure. They booed God & Jerusalem, lied all week about Libya & etc & obama comes out smelling like a rose. I don’t know if the voters will ever wake up to what this man is up to or the media. I totally despise the media.
As far as the 47%, we know Romney was only talking about those who rips the system as it is a way of life for them, we all know some of these people. He is not talking about those on SS or the real needy who are not gaming the system.

Posted on September 23, 2012 at 8:09pmHey George keep on harping about the truth , it hurts does it not to hear the truth about 47% just like the truth about ows and their ties to the SEIU and the communists I don’t hear you talking about that at all. And you think yourself a credible “journalist . I think not. etc. Must be hard to get ratings these days!

Posted on September 23, 2012 at 9:46pmopportunity means making it easier for businesses to make jobs , freedom means the government stays ot of our lives and business, liberty about the same as freedom. the biggest problem in this country is the lack of businesses to create jobs, jobs don’t just pop out of the air, unless you’re expanding government, jobs have to come from somewhere, cheaper corporate taxes,not giving millionaires more money but giving people the lowest overhead possible if not manufacturing and the production jobs go to mexico, india, china. the jobs don’t go there because the weather is better.not everyone can be a doctor lawyer or entertainer, we need good paying hardworking jobs , so the 18 year old coming out of high school who isn’t smart enough for college can make a living w/out government. and i was barely smart enough for college started working took me 10 years to make 40,000 a year without food stamps or welfare and a single father and want no help just like everyone else shouldn’t.
