CARNEGIE, Pa. — President Obama’s infamous remark four years ago about voters “clinging to their guns and religion” has been resurrected on the campaign trail — by none other than GOP vice-presidential nominee Paul Ryan.
In remarks at a steel company in this borough southwest of Pittsburgh, Ryan reminded the audience of more than 1,000 of the 2008 Obama statement, then used his own resume as a counter-example.
“Hey, I’m a Catholic deer-hunter. I am happy to be clinging to my guns and my religion,” Ryan said to huge cheers and applause.
