Slippery politicians couch their positions with such "outs" as - I don't "want to" or I will "resist" this or that. This is why you must do your homework independently of the media or partisan sources. Look at their past actions, writings, voting records and public speeches or interviews.
My fellow Americans and freedom advocates worldwide, we are all being "gamed" and conned to allow more and more collectivism, more government, weakening currencies and more wars and cronyism. Wake up please!!!
Based on the timing of the whisper and the answer Mitt gave, it could indeed be argued that he focused on "not raising taxes" in his answer. My question: Are any or all of the candidates outfitted with concealed wireless earpieces to get messages and prompts from their advisers from another "room"? I want proof and only proof, no rumors.
Just Google: "There was obviously an open mike which picked up the whisper, but we have no way of knowing who did the whispering."
Results are multiple stories that confirm it in the original and raise but do not settle, who said it, how it got through, or whether or not Romney even heard the whisper so as to prompt or prejudice his answer. This case has apparently never been settled since no newer stories show in the results. If anyone can find newer conclusions, please post here!!!
Think people. Any whisper from some hidden earpiece would half to blow Mitt's ear off to be loud enough to be picked up by a microphone. The whisper came from someone else near a microphone...maybe one of the other candidates or moderators.
There is no way that Romney's mike is going to pick up a voice like that from an ear piece. There would have to have been a small speaker on Ronmey's shoulder for the voice to have sounded even remotely close to that. It was obviously from an open mike somewhere.
You seem a little clueless. Presumedly, the wireless feed (the digital data of the audio) of the earpiece was picked on the channel of his malfunctioning wireless microphone.
for all you people saying it was "added in", "fake" or "non sense". You have no clue what you are talking about.
FACT: MSNBC VP for Communications Jeremy Gaines "There was obviously an open mike which picked up the whisper, but we have no way of knowing who did the whispering."
Plus: Sources at MSNBC have denied that the comment came from the moderators' table, claiming that, according to a sound analysis (which Giuliani's people requested immediately following the debate)
FYI, even NBC acknowledged the whisper. Their lame excuse was a mic picked up the whisper in the audience. lol. There was eleven to start. Now there are only three in the Republican race. Guess which one will obey our Constitution?
The mike picked up the technical support whispering to the mediator. Romney is a stud. Any one who says otherwise is a BIGOT just like huckabee. IF you don't know what a bigot is, you are ignorant and shouldn't be voting anyway.

MSNBC's explanation is sad. Unless Rain Man is in the audience muttering to himself, who in their right mind would be sitting around whispering during the debate?
"He raised taxes. Ten minutes to Wapner. Vote for Romney because he won't raise taxes."

Tim Russett, "You're a fan of Reagan. Would you...?" (Builds up Mitt) Mitt Romney is presented the perfect opportunity to say the sound bite "I'm not going to raise taxes", TWICE. Then Tim Russett
rambles on more buying more time for Romney to collect his thoughts. This is so rigged.

I JUST REMOVED THE AUDIO FROM THAT SEGMENT AND LOOKED AT IT IN AUDIO SOFTWARE. THERE IS DEFINITELY A VOICE SAYING "SUPPORT" and THEN MITT ROMNEY SAYS "SUPPORT" a SECOND LATER!
UNBELIEVABLE! MSNBC IS LYING THRUOGH THEIR TEETH. SOMEONE WAS COACHING AND PROMPTING ROMNEY!
WHAT A MANNEQUIN HE IS! PEOPLE WAKE UP! HE'S TRYING TO BUY AN ELECTION HERE! THIS IS FRAUD!
Are you Romney haters for real? If you disagree with Romney's policies, then fine. But do you realize how stupid and desperate you all look by claiming that someone was whispering to Romney during the debate? You guys look ridiculous. Is this the best you can do against Mitt Romney? Claim that he was cheating during the debate? LOL. No wonder Romney is doing so well. 2008 will be a great year!
We now have AUDIO proof that Divine Providence has chosen Gov. MITT ROMNEY for President of the United States of America. This is good enough for me and my family to get out the vote for MITT in 2008.
You want to see another whisper check this out! It hits at about .07 and it is the announcer that is whispering it "Their Way" is what he says. youtube (dot) com/watch?v=0NlIMQ31EjY
Ron Paul 2008 Listen to his response to the question as well, he smacks em good!
"*** UPDATE *** After reviewing the tapes, NBC determined that an open mic picked up a whisper from the audience. It is unclear who it is that says it, but it was not said by any of the candidates, was not heard in the hall and, more importantly, not heard by the candidates." (FROM MSNBC WEBSITE)
It's not that we inadvertently his coaching, its simply that he uttered exactly what was coincidentally spoken accross the hall by an audience told expressly to suppress speaking or ovation.
I'm so glad no other candidate shares his clairvoyance. Then I'd be concerned.
I am inclined to believe that the whisper came from someone whispering to Russert so that he would add to/clarify the question to help Romney know exactly what Reagan did in '83. BUT MSNBC is DENYING that it came from the moderators' table. I believe it DID come from the moderators' table, that makes Russert and MSNBC look like the Assholes, by trying to assist Romney. There are only 2 possibilities(1)It came from MSNBC or (2)from Romneys people. Until MSNBC comes clean, Im blaming Mitt!
"We had some audio issues and Gov. Romney's mike wasn't working momentarily. Simple as that," MSNBC VP for Communications Jeremy Gaines said in a one-line e-mail response to questions about overheard whisper.
he didntg even know what reagan did!!! DUH a 1st grader would know that...c ya mitt Im gettin on the ron paul bandwagon,,at least hes honest...we should start callin him DIMwitt
Don't argue with the candidate, America. He doesn't have lobbyists running his campaign, he's not going to raise taxes, and he'll never hold his own opinion on any matter that is important to the well being of our country.
He'll have his ear piece in the whole time to give him the right answer. Or, he'll just talk it over with God.
just like every other candidate who now says, I approve this message......usher in the next crooked incompetent liar into office please and help yourself to trillions of tax dollars submitted by the working citizens. fuck all politicians.
PMSNBC is lying and doing damage control. LISTEN TO THE VOICE. It says "He raised taxes" then it says "I'm not gonna raise" and immediately Mitt responds "I am not going to raise taxes" - repeating EXACTLY what the voice said. HE WAS BEING COACHED and MSNBC is lying through their teeth.
How would Romney's microphone pick up something from an earpiece? The earpiece have to be loud enough to blow his ear-drum out! It's funny how he would have to be so clever to sneak a communication device into the debate and then stupid enough to have it turned up high enough to be heard. Why did we not hear any other "cueing" throughout he rest of hte debate? And why did the rest of hte panel not hear it? Wait! Oh yes. It is some kind of religious/MSNBC conspiracy!

"It is unclear who it is that says it, but it was not said by any of the candidates, was not heard in the hall and, more importantly, not heard by the candidates."
co-morderator Brian Williams also wrote an Article about it, Romney is innocent.
Innocent? Of being fed the response? We can't know that. He is guilty, in any case, of being a shmuck. Why is he always laughing under his breath? He's probably remembering a "dirty" limerick. He doesn't seem focused on the debate. He shouldn't be president. MSNBC tried to make the debate all about him and Ron Paul still won over 40% of the viewers. Ron Paul 2008.
oh yeah. Imagine if this happened to like Ron Paul or something..these Neo Cons will definitely jump on that and it would be on the front page of every newspaper and website
Listen to the very short snippet of audio right before Mitt speaks. It sounds like "I'm not ..." then Mitt starts talking. That sounds like a cue to me.
It's like something supernatural. Like a whisper from God. It's like when Mitt was momentarily caught out by a cryptic question God intervened to help him out. Certainly makes you think.
"We had some audio issues and Gov. Romney's mike wasn't working momentarily. Simple as that," MSNBC VP for Communications Jeremy Gaines said in a one-line e-mail response to questions about overheard whisper.
They won't explain. The rumor going around is it was Frank Luntz, Romney's paid image / political consultant prompting him in his ear mic and there was an audio mishap and everyone could suddenly hear it.
You can bet if it was one of the other candidates this would be a lead story on all media outlets for days. But since Mitt is buying the election it is being swept under the rug.
the "raised taxes"part seemed explainable, no conspiracy there. then i listened VERY closely and could clearly hear "i'm not gonna" almost as romney said "im not gonna". this is huge! im not a consp. theorist but there is clearly collusion at some level. you can only hear it well on some versions. it is very clear on tivo.
Folks....Someone just pointed out that you can here the start of another whisper sentance just after "HE Raised Taxes"....Listen again VERY carefully and you can here the whisperer start with more cues before Romney interrupts him..
Why would anyone believe MSNBC's explanation when they also gave Romney the most speaking time as well ? Romney got 21 minutes to Ron Pauls 6 minutes...Even Rudy who's done extremely poorly got 3 minutes more to speak than Ron Paul. That does not qualify as a debate....It
But Listen to the NEXT sentence that the Mystery voice says. He starts saying "Im not gonna..." and then Mitt Romney says "Im not gonna raise taxes" IMMEDIATELY after. People are not focusing on what the next words are in the phrase. Listen. Its faint but its there. Holy shit.
Sources at MSNBC have denied that the comment came from the moderators' table, claiming that, according to a sound analysis (which Giuliani's people requested immediately following the debate), the "raised taxes" voice was on the same channel as Romney's microphone. Attention is now being turned to the Secret Service, which regularly performs EM-wave sweeps of any area that they are protecting (an important function, since they also depend on the ability to communicate with earpieces).
Be careful what you're saying. Digital cross-channel frequency interruption would only allow (given probabilistic algorithms) for a few seconds of audible noise over one or the other channel. Are you saying those few seconds were just enough for what we heard of a possible Romney operative feeding answers to our *future president*?
If you listen really carefully - you can hear the whisperer say "not raise taxes.... I'm not g...." then Romney speaks and says the exact same thing. Listen to a few different videos to find one with good quality, definitely he was being fed his "Lines".

Get the facts before you bashing other people to suit your own agenda!
"We had some audio issues and Gov. Romney's mike wasn't working momentarily. Simple as that," MSNBC VP for Communications Jeremy Gaines said in a one-line e-mail response to questions about overheard whisper.
For anyone saying it was someone whispering to Russert ..SHUT UP! Why would the interviewer not know about the question he is asking. He obviously does because of the way he phrased it. Although Russert is a total douche!
The argument that someone whispered to Russert "raise taxes" doesn't make any sense to me. For one thing, there is no one near Russert (at least that we can see). The second is what kidwave said -- Russert doesn't need someone coaching him as to what the questions that he is asking mean. The question is where is that whisper coming from? Is Romney wearing a small device on his suit? The whole thing stinks, just like the bulge in Bush's jacket.
Some people are arguing that someone is actually prompting Russert, i.e. "helping him" bring meaning to his question. But, that makes no sense. The whisper comes almost exactly as Russert finishes the question. Wouldn't they wait until he was fully finished before prompting him? Clearly, the voice is for Romney.
what a joke,,, this stinks,,, at least the ether is wearing off and america is starting to wake up,,, i see this snowballing,,, its comming,,, oh boy its comming,,, go ron paul
so Mitt and the others get help with talking points in their ear while someone else turns Ron Paul's down or off. Do you see how many times he tries to adjust his earpiece trying to answer questions correctly?
If anyone can rescue the economy at this point, it would have to be Mitt. The US is $53 trillion in debt, that is $400K per household. The dollar is becoming useless and the Euro is now becoming the credible currency. If we don't have a good economy you can forget foreign policy, fighting wars, or healthcare, funding for top education. The economy needs to be front and center, not religion, steriotypes and other trivial things.
this guy is buying his way to the whitehouse and thinks that each on of us are for sale:) Guess again you CFR NWO scumbag. Your adviser is Cofer Black VP of Blackwater USA!How about that...
You have got to be kidding! Do you know anything about Mitt Romney? Do you read? Do you use the brain God gave you? Mitt Romney knows nothing about Government, Nothing about the economy and nothing about history. If he did not come from wealth he would be selling used cars.
First Bush did it, not Romney.The Thought Police over at NBC are saying this was an audio flub. Yea, right. Notice if you search MSNBC's website it is scrubbed clean of any reference to it. I smell a rat.
Another blatant example of Mitt Romney the big fake! MSNBC is just as bad for trying to cover it up. You Romney defenders only insult the peoples intelligence by saying otherwise.
Get the facts before you bashing other people to suit your own agenda!
"We had some audio issues and Gov. Romney's mike wasn't working momentarily. Simple as that," MSNBC VP for Communications Jeremy Gaines said in a one-line e-mail response to questions about overheard whisper.
The question was, "Are you going to do what Ronald Reagan did?" The whisperer told Mitt what Reagan did: "He raised taxes." So Mitt had to answer, "I'm not going to raise taxes." Mitt cheated, plain and simple.
Duh rldc16 ! Why would the interviewer not know about the question he is asking. He obviously does because of the way he phrased it. Although Russert is a total douche!
It was someone whispering to Tim Russert to make mention that Reagan had raised taxes so the audience knew what the question was about. The question asked didn't say what Reagan did so the vast majority of the audience didn't know what he was asking. So, someone whispered to Tim to mention it but Romney did it for him. It wasn't being whispered to Romney. He has no earpieces and no one is even close to him to whisper anything.

Throughout all the debates, he's been giggling and whispering while others (especially Paul) talked.
Nothing for nothing...I called it when Rudy was running for Mayor.........

I am inclined to believe that the whisper came from someone whispering to Russert so that he would add to/clarify the question to help Romney know exactly what Reagan did in '83. BUT MSNBC is DENYING that it came from the moderators' table. I believe it DID come from the moderators' table, that makes Russert and MSNBC look like the Assholes, by trying to assist Romney. There are only 2 possibilities(1)It came from MSNBC or (2)from Romneys people. Until MSNBC comes clean, Im blaming Mitt!

Don't argue with the candidate, America. He doesn't have lobbyists running his campaign, he's not going to raise taxes, and he'll never hold his own opinion on any matter that is important to the well being of our country.
He'll have his ear piece in the whole time to give him the right answer. Or, he'll just talk it over with God.

How would Romney's microphone pick up something from an earpiece? The earpiece have to be loud enough to blow his ear-drum out! It's funny how he would have to be so clever to sneak a communication device into the debate and then stupid enough to have it turned up high enough to be heard. Why did we not hear any other "cueing" throughout he rest of hte debate? And why did the rest of hte panel not hear it? Wait! Oh yes. It is some kind of religious/MSNBC conspiracy!

Innocent? Of being fed the response? We can't know that. He is guilty, in any case, of being a shmuck. Why is he always laughing under his breath? He's probably remembering a "dirty" limerick.

Sources at MSNBC have denied that the comment came from the moderators' table, claiming that, according to a sound analysis (which Giuliani's people requested immediately following the debate), the "raised taxes" voice was on the same channel as Romney's microphone. Attention is now being turned to the Secret Service, which regularly performs EM-wave sweeps of any area that they are protecting (an important function, since they also depend on the ability to communicate with earpieces).
TinaBopperM 4 years ago
Be careful what you're saying. Digital cross-channel frequency interruption would only allow (given probabilistic algorithms) for a few seconds of audible noise over one or the other channel. Are you saying those few seconds were just enough for what we heard of a possible Romney operative feeding answers to our *future president*?

The argument that someone whispered to Russert "raise taxes" doesn't make any sense to me. For one thing, there is no one near Russert (at least that we can see). The second is what kidwave said -- Russert doesn't need someone coaching him as to what the questions that he is asking mean. The question is where is that whisper coming from? Is Romney wearing a small device on his suit? The whole thing stinks, just like the bulge in Bush's jacket.

Some people are arguing that someone is actually prompting Russert, i.e. "helping him" bring meaning to his question. But, that makes no sense.

If we don't have a good economy you can forget foreign policy, fighting wars, or healthcare, funding for top education. The economy needs to be front and center, not religion, steriotypes and other trivial things.

It was someone whispering to Tim Russert to make mention that Reagan had raised taxes so the audience knew what the question was about. The question asked didn't say what Reagan did so the vast majority of the audience didn't know what he was asking. So, someone whispered to Tim to mention it but Romney did it for him. It wasn't being whispered to Romney. He has no earpieces and no one is even close to him to whisper anything.
