Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney admitted his comments captured on hidden camera at a fundraiser earlier this year were “not elegantly stated,” but did not back away from the broader point he was trying to make. In the video, which leaked Monday, he is seen telling donors that 47 percent of voters are “victims” reliant on handouts and will support President Obama regardless. Last night, Romney called his remarks “off the cuff” but wouldn’t disavow them.
