3. Romney repeated the debunked Chamber of Commerce poll about businesses not hiring due to Obamacare

The man lies like the rest of us breathe.

Romney: Obamacare is a job-killer. Businesses across the country have been asked what the impact is of Obamacare. Three-quarters of those surveyed by the Chamber of Commerce said Obamacare makes it less likely for them to hire people.

That statistic was based on an online, opt-in survey of small-business executives. A press release from the Chamber of Commerce about the survey carries a large caveat: “This online survey is not based on a probability sample and therefore no estimate of theoretical sampling error can be calculated.” In other words, the chamber can’t be sure it’s a representative sample of small-business executives.

If I recall correctly - Romney's leadership is getting away with murder in PA. He knows he doesn't need black votes, and he knows that our votes are being suppressed.

So he knows he can say whatever he wants and get away with it . . .

5. Sounds like Romney is speaking to the NAACP with the intent of being heard by the KKK/TeaParty.
