Romney caught on tape... who else has fallen foul of hidden recordings?

Mitt Romney’s been caught rapid dismissing 47 per cent of American voters. Who else didn’t know the mic was on?

SO MITT ROMNEY has been caught rapid making comments in a secretly-filmed video, which sees him suggesting that 47 per cent of Americans are ‘victims’ who are dependent on the government.

The Republican presidential hopeful’s campaign team are on serious damage after Romney said that the 47 per cent of his countrymen who don’t pay federal income tax can’t be helped by him, because they won’t care about his proposed tax cuts.

Romney attacked a culture of dependency and said that the 47 per cent ‘believe the government has a responsibility to care for them’.

Romney’s not the first person to be confronted with material like this, and he won’t be the last. Who can forget Gordon Brown and the ‘bigoted woman’?
