I hope no ill will, physically, will come to him.

I applaud him for what he did but I wonder how coming forward is going to effect his life now.

He was talking about how Obama is trying to give tax breaks to overweight lesbians before the break.

Instead of saying this gave us a chance to see 'the real Romney', the mantra should be 'the real Republicans'.

What Romney said at this fundraiser is what the majority of Republicans believe and we should keep hammering that point home.

Forget Romney. He was nothing back in May and he's nothing now.

to find that the part of the video that chilled me was what chilled him too. The part about the Chinese girls, 3 to a stack, guarded and living in horrible conditions. I was horrified by the casual way Romney related that story, and his approval of it all. That is what he would impose on US workers, and did his best to accomplish just that through Bain. 47% was bad, but the real story was the factory. Mr. Prouty, you are a man with a conscience and I applaud you.

Oh, I just wanted to give him a great big hug after that... He didn't think you should have to pay 50,000 to know a candidate... I love him-He has amazing integrity!
