Poor poor Mittens :(

In a conference call on Wednesday afternoon with his national finance committee, Mr. Romney said that the president had followed the “old playbook” of wooing specific interest groups — “especially the African-American community, the Hispanic community and young people,” Mr. Romney explained — with targeted gifts and initiatives.

“In each case they were very generous in what they gave to those groups,” Mr. Romney said.

“With regards to the young people, for instance, a forgiveness of college loan interest, was a big gift,” he said. “Free contraceptives were very big with young college-aged women. And then, finally, Obamacare also made a difference for them, because as you know, anybody now 26 years of age and younger was now going to be part of their parents’ plan, and that was a big gift to young people. They turned out in large numbers, a larger share in this election even than in 2008.”

I guess the cons don't want to talk about it. Go figure.
 
Remember the Republican rule:

When a Republican votes in their own financial interest, that's "rational" and "patriotic".

When a Democrat votes in their own financial interest, that's "grabbing government handouts".

And yes, everyone did notice the stinking hypocrisy of it, hence the pasting the Republicans took.
 
Funniest part of this is that it was the people who get the most food stamps/entitlements who voted for Mitt. The ignorant south, the elderly, a large percentage of non-whites - they voted against their own best interests.

It was the better off blue states in the north who voted for Obama.
