Got to have a mother for me

Moe Lane notices something:

Seriously: if you’re going to put up a video that purports to be the entire raw footage of a Romney fundraiser, that’s fine. If it’s too big, that’s also fine.

But for Heaven’s sakes: don’t show us two videos where the first one ends with “We poll all these people to see where you stand in the polls but 45 percent of the people vote for the Republicans and 48 or 49…” and the second one starts with “…about twice as much as China, not 10 times as much like is reported” and expect people not to notice that there is obviously a piece missing in there somewhere.

The video's at the link. And I'm sure there's a perfectly logical explanation, right?

Mark, they did put the complete video on the Mother Jones' site. The explanation for it being incorrect was: "Update: Due to a production error, a section of part one of the full Romney "47 percent" video was not initially uploaded properly and an intial section was omitted. This has now been remedied." They also have the full audio now too.

Mark,
I heard that during the missing two minutes, Paul Ryan ran a blistering half-mile sprint. Impressive.

Oh wait...turns out it was a 5 minute half-mile. Must have been a rounding error on his part.;)
