At issue are comments Obama made privately at a fundraising gathering in San Francisco last Sunday. He explained his troubles winning over working class voters, saying they have become frustrated with economic conditions:
"It's not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations."

I think he said a mouth full in that one little sentence! He does not retract his statement either he says....
"I didn't say it as well as I should have,"
So in other words he didn't spin it quite right!
