re: #56 Targetpractice

I think it’ll be a matter of historical debate as to what measure of damage 47% ultimately did to Romney’s campaign. By that point in the game, his ass wasn’t in the best position possible to begin with. He’d received a “dead cat bounce” in post-convention polls and was watching Obama pull ahead. The first of the debates was still weeks away, and the 47% comment never weighed into any of those. And he stuck in his mouth and roundly chewed it off days later with the Benghazi attacks.

One can read Nate Silver and note that Romney was probably dead meat as early as July….
