SC: Romney Gives Unemployed Woman Cash on Ropeline [WHAT?]

That was nice, but I hope he did not intend a metaphor.

[Utmost Certainty]

Does anyone else find it really tacky that he gave her money like that? I don’t see anything ‘noble’ about this.

[McGavin999]

More poor judgement by Romney. Why on earth would he do something like that in public? Why would he let anyone know he was doing a good deed? When you do a good works and say "Hey everyone, look at me, look at what I did" it means you did the deed for all the wrong reasons.

If he had an ouce of class or chairty he would have had one of his aides pay her light bill quietly and had them see about helping her get a job.

[livius]

Really embarassing for everybody involved. How out of touch are you to be such a condescending idiot?

[Utmost Certainty]

Yeah, exactly… or address her privately himself. Not make a public spectacle out of it. So gross.

[Christie at the beach]

Mitt seems so out of touch & this makes him look a bit like John Kerry IMO. He could had ask one of his aides to do something for the lady. IMO.

[annieokie]

EXACTLY RIGHT. No blessings for him now.

You should never do a good deed for show, so that one might brag.

Now, isn't this an irregular act? Vote buying? Something is not right about this.

Romney Gives Cash To Struggling Supporter At Rally

Obama’s brother from another mother. If conservatives fall for this non-vetted poser we’re no better than the Dems that fell for the non-vetted poser Obama.

CNN ran the above story.

Hell, yeah, it’s a violation of FEC rules of the highest order.

This is ABC and CNN reassuring Mittens that he’s untouchable.

Since the woman was already ‘committed’, it’s just an employer reimbursing an employee.

Next thing you know we’ll be hearing all about Romney’s “stash”. He’ll have them lined up with their hands out.

This sounds more like a TV game show than a serious run for the presidency.

Has our nation really fallen that far to lap up this kind of gobbledegook?

"Come on down!"

[cicero2k]

Such a misguided gesture if this is true.

So, he thinks he can out redistribute Obama in a gesture like this and beat him at his own game.

If the moderates (who decide this thing) want a redistribution artist, they’ll vote for the one they already have and not a new one.

I’m glad he’s done this this early while we still have a chance to get a conservative nominated.

[patriciamary]

He give her $50 or $60 dollars.Wow,could he spare it!That,s not even a penny compared to his pocket worth.

[annieokie]

I pray you are wrong on him getting by with this. This is blatant in your face "screw you" attitude. Then to be condoned by the Governor and State Treasurer, I hope someone takes this and files charges against all of them.

Just DAMN if they get away with this.

[traditional1]

I hope every panhandler in SC lines the ropes at every stop for Romney-the-RINO.......

[KJC1]

LOL, me too. And have them say, “You paid that other woman’s bills, why won’t you pay mine?”

This was a really pathetic move; pathetic for its insincerity.

[WVNan]

Typical elitist condescension to his inferiors. I’ve seen it all my life. He is just another J.Kerry.
