The US Presidential campaign of Mitt Romney suffered a blow back in September.

The Republican candidate was secretly filmed saying almost half of Americans think they are victims.

He told wealthy donors 47% do not pay income tax and will vote for current President Barack Obama no matter what.

Looking to change the subject the Romney campaign rolled out a television ad featuring a mother and infant aimed at cutting into the advantage held by Obama with female voters.

The video was reportedly recorded back in May and released on September 17th .

The former Massachusetts governor made no apologies for the comments but admitted that they were not “elegantly stated”.
