Why is it that people vote for politicians who really don’t care about them? I am of course speaking of the “charismatic” Presidential Candidate Mitt Romney.

Romney has distanced himself from the average American several times. The most recent remarks, in my opinion, have been catastrophic. He said, “There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what… [M]y job is not to worry about those people.”

He is proclaiming that he does not care about 47% of America, that is almost half of the nation.

If that is what he said and most certainly what he believes then why are people, the average American still voting for him. I mean most of Romney’s voter base may call most of the attacks on him Liberal propaganda. In this case however the attacks are exactly what he said and yet Conservatives have attempted to defend him in the wake of this public relations nightmare.

I understand party loyalty but to follow a man who does not care about you, the average, is ridiculous.
