Supporters of Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan at a rally in Dover, N.H. on Tuesday defended Romney’s “47 percent” comments:
“The 47 percent — they’re not paying any taxes, so they don’t have any incentive to support him,” Jim Pacocha, a 70-year-old retiree from southern New Hampshire, said when asked about the remarks Romney made at a fundraiser in May.
“Once it gets past the tipping point, we’re going to be as bad as any European, socialist country,” he added.
