Aw...Mitt likes 100% of us now.
What a guy! Just makes me all warm inside to know that Rmoney has found it in his heart to care about all Americans. And since the President didn't bring it up in Wednesday's debate for the bigger audience, Mitt had to clear it up via Faux News.
Being he's so sincere and all, I'm just about convinced to vote for him. :rofl:

(CNN) - Mitt Romney said he was "completely wrong" when he argued that nearly half of Americans were "victims" and dependent on government.

The admission came Thursday as the GOP presidential candidate sought to clarify his controversial "47%" comments.

"Clearly in a campaign with hundreds if not thousands of speeches and question-and-answer sessions, now and then you're going to say something that doesn't come out right," Romney said on Fox News. "In this case, I said something that's just completely wrong."

<snip>

On Fox News Thursday night, Romney was asked what he would have said if the president had brought up the controversial statements–which is when the GOP nominee went as far as to say he was "wrong."
He then argued that, if elected, he would represent all Americans, not just half.

"I absolutely believe, however, that my life has shown that I care about 100% and that's been demonstrated throughout my life. And this whole campaign is about the 100%. When I become president, it will be helping the 100%."

1. Romney's concern for the 100% will result in some very crowded emergency rooms.
