Weak questions, no challenges, yada yada.

Rmoney is doubling down: the people who pay no income taxes will not vote for him.

Cavuto keeps asking the questions though about the 47%.

Briefly mentioned he knows veterans are part of that.

Repeating lie about Medicare cut.

Isn't it pretty much a given that FOX viewers are going to vote for RMoney?

Watching it is important, and I'm glad there are DUers willing to make that sacrifice! I guess appearing on Fox is to keep his base shored up.

to, once again, shore up his base. Forget about gaining independents and swing voters--Romney needs to keep wooing the rabid right wingers who watch Fox.

Felt that way towards the end of the interview definitely. Romney claims to not know anything about Carter's grandson

Meaning, Romney knows a great majority of people do pay taxes
and so if you say the ones who don't pay taxes won't vote for
him, then the ones that do won't want to be associated with
them, so they'll all vote for Romney?

Sheesh and double sheesh.

He basically said that Obama supports redistribution of wealth while Romney supports free people and free enterprise to EVERY FUCKING QUESTION.

Yeah, it was a real hard-hitter.

He said nothing new that I heard (I am actually trying to study now).
