In newly released secret footage from the same talk where he made his now infamous 47% comments, Romney also claimed that the government might take “100 percent of people’s income.”
MSNBC’s Krystal Ball and Howard Fineman join MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell to discuss this topic, Romney’s seeming disconnect with reality and whether WSJ columnist Peggy Noonan is right in writing:
‘This is not how big leaders talk, it’s how shallow campaign operatives talk…Romney’s theory of the case is all wrong. his understanding of the political topography is wrong… I think there is a broad and growing feeling now among Republicans that this thing is slipping out of Romney’s hands.
It’s time to admit the Romney campaign is an incompetent one. It’s not big, it’s not brave, it’s not thoughtfully tackling great issues… An intervention is in order.
‘Mitt, this isn’t working.'”
