For months, the identity of the person who recorded Mitt Romney’s infamous 47% remarks at a $50,000-per-person fundraising dinner during the presidential campaign remained a mystery.

Looks like Ed Schultz got a last "hurrah" before he exits MSNBC.
Orthodoxy SUCKS.

What harrah was that for Sped? He just interviewed the dope who had the vid.
ZitatBut I think it defined him [Romney] at a critical point… and it defined him exactly for who he was.
And you know who's fault that is? Romney. He was a slash and burn creep in the Primaries totally destroying his opponents with hate filled ads. General election time? Romney rolls over and let's a Marxist slam the hell out of him and Capitalism at the same time while he sat with his thumb up his ass. Just reading this article has my blood boiling over at what a wasted opportunity this was and how Romney's incompetence was the main factor in it.

Romney did not fight once last year. And then in the first interview after the election he takes all of the blame for the failure and says every decision in the campaign was his own and that he takes all responsibility for everything.
More and more I think Romney should have stayed home instead of wasting everyone's time. Maybe it would have been better if someone else had won the primary had the chance to challenge Obama.
My point about Schultz was that he probably cackled over the 47% tape because he is just that mean spirited, you know? I don't know who has more of a blackened heart, him or Chris Matthews.

Let him laugh. It is all he has now that he lost his Prime Time show. He is stuck doing weekends 5-7 which is a black hole for broadcasting. It's worse than if he got fired.

C'mon Frank..Romney didn't really have much serious competition for the nomination. I blame conservatives for not putting up better challengers.
Look, I will never, ever doubt that Romney would have been a better president than Obama. That being said, if they guy couldn't even competently run his campaign (hiring his friends, 47%, binders full of women, letting Obama get the lead early on, etc. etc.), maybe we're better off he lost?
Better to let Obama really sink the country and get a chance at a real conservative in 2016 than go with a milquetoast candidate like Romney.
