The bartender who secretly filmed Mitt Romney’s infamous “47 percent” remarks told the Huffington Post he had actually met the candidate at a fundraiser two months earlier and “shared a typical bartender-to-patron moment.”
Said the bartender: “I handed him a diet Coke with lemon on it, because I was told that that’s what he drank… He took it and turned and didn’t say anything. I presented him the exact right drink that he wanted… Had it there, sitting there on a napkin. He took it out of my hand and turned his back without a ‘thank you’ or anything else.”
