The Democratic Party
-----------------------
Robert --

When he thought the cameras were off, this is what Mitt 
Romney told a group of wealthy donors he really thinks 
about half of America:

     "There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for 
     the President no matter what. All right, there are 47 percent 
     who are with him, who are dependent upon government, 
     who believe that they are victims, who believe the government 
     has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they 
     are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you-name-it. 
     That that's an entitlement. And the government should give it 
     to them. And they will vote for this president no matter what... 
     These are people who pay no income tax...

     "My job is not to worry about those people. I'll never convince 
     them they should take personal responsibility and care for their 
     lives."

Think about that for a second. A man who is running for president 
of the United States thinks that half of all Americans aren't worth 
his effort or time -- that they see themselves as victims, and don't 
take responsibility for their lives.

Putting aside the factual inaccuracies in that statement, think about 
how badly he's misjudged the character of this nation. This man 
should not be president.

This is the kind of mentality that President Obama and Democrats 
across the country are up against. We believe that every American 
deserves a fair shot -- no matter where they come from or who their 
parents are.

And you know what? It is the job of the president to worry about every 
American, no matter whether they voted for him or not.

I can't stomach the thought of Mitt Romney and Republicans who think 
like he does winning in 49 days. But we've got a tough road ahead of us, 
and we need your help to fight back.

Donate $5 or more today to give President Obama and Democrats the 
resources they need to win on Election Day:
