Romney mentions his dad's "help from the government" on the stump

On News Nation they just showed a clip of Romney saying that his dad had "help from the government" or "government assistance" (can't remember which), and here in this country we help people but they don't stay on welfare wooo!!

Note: he didn't say WELFARE. And he didn't mention that his dad was a moocher.

I just hope that people are not fooled by Romney v12.0 or whichever version he is on November 5. Not looking forward to the debates, since he's just going to lie and say what people want to hear. (And then correct/tweak quietly the next day.)

Whenever he mentions something casually that others have been hitting him on, you know he's doing damage control.
