The 47% was not a gaffe... he didn't misspeak... there was a clear stream of consciousness and a line of argument.

Again, Romney did not mispeak, he did not fluff a line - he was clear on what he meant and in fact he doubled-down on the message suggests that...

Romney is making a desperate scramble for the centre - but what was said (and backed up through Romney AND the entire GOP leadership after the fact) cannot be unsaid.

Basic point is, he should have apologised for it from day one, not permitting the basic falsehoods to become the GOP talking points. He said it was 'inelegantly stated' not 'wrong'...
