Mother Jones, which obtained video of Mitt Romney's remarks about the "47 percent" at a Boca Raton fundraiser, plans to release the full video later today, the magazine's co-editor Clara Jeffrey told POLITICO.
"We have the whole tape, which we're releasing later today," Jeffrey said. She said they would aim to release the tape "around mid-afternoon."
The Romney campaign has been in crisis mode since Mother Jones posted a brief clip from the video, which shows the candidate telling donors that he can’t count on the support of “47 percent”. At a press conference on Monday night, Romney had said he hoped the entire video would be made public so that voters could get the full context by hearing all of the question posed to him and his complete answer.
My colleague Kevin Robillard has the full details on the fallout.
