C. Richards: Can he hear me?

I am part of the 47 percent group Mitt Romney has disregarded as being insignificant to him.

My husband and I have worked all our lives and paid federal, state and local taxes. We have raised three hard-working, tax-paying children.

Romney still can't hear us. And on Nov. 6, we will not bother with him.

Carole Richards, Livermore

Can he hear me.

You made his point perfectly. You would only vote for him if he was a Democrat. Then it wouldn't matter what he said or what he did. It wouldn't matter if he was leading the USA to a less powerful country in the world. He and his unwitting cronies have all but ruined our space program. He also tries to play the poor against the rich game. First he said the rich should pay their "fair share". When he found out they were paying most of the income taxes already he change it to they should pay "a little more". He said in his own words he would side with Muslums against Christians, which is why he ignores the Jewish people. If his health plan is so great why isn't he enrolled in it. Also, why aren't all Federal workers, State workers and the Police, Firemen, and School Teachers Unions in it. There were only two good things in that plan, they were the nonrefusal for preexisting medical conditions and extending benefits to age 26 for students. Those could be included in a future health care plan without all the garbage in the one that passed after many backdoor and midnight deals with one entire state being exempted to get the votes.

One gets the feeling, Ms.

One gets the feeling, Ms. Richards that you'd prefer to hear oBAMa lie to you than to hear Romney tell you the truth. His statement about the 47% may have been delivered poorly, but his message was true. He told the truth.

For a moment, imagine that

For a moment, imagine that Romney did not make his statement public.

Would you vote for him? If no, then Romney is correct.

The tone of your letter leads me to believe you would not vote for him regardless.
