Mitt Romney defending his comments about 47 percent of voters being dependent on the government in a Monday night press conference. The Republican presidential candidate faced a new controversy after a video surfaced that shows him calling President Barack Obama’s supporters “victims” who are “dependent upon government” and “pay no income tax.”
At the press conference, Romney said the comments were “off the cuff.” The candidate is overhauling his campaign’s messaging strategy less than two months before the election.
