The Republicans continue their outreach campaign to the demographic groups that represent, you know, the future of America. Mitt Romney was once again caught on tape discussing his actual views on half the nation.
"The president's campaign, if you will, focused on giving targeted groups a big gift," Romney said in a call to donors on Wednesday. "He made a big effort on small things."

Among the "gifts" Romney cited were free health care "in perpetuity," which he said was highly motivational to black and Hispanic voters as well as for voters making $25,000 to $35,000 a year.

Young voters, Romney said, were motivated by the administration's plan for partial forgiveness of college loan interest and being able to remain on their parents' health insurance plans. Young women had an additional incentive to vote for Obama because of free contraception coverage under the president's health care plan, he said.
The election is over and he repeated the remarks that cost him the election. In other words, he meant what he said about the 47 percent.
