Labor Activist: I Don't Think Obama Wins Without 47 Percent Tape

Labor activist Charles Kernaghan did not think President Obama would have won re-election without the "47 percent" tape that was secretly taken of Republican candidate Mitt Romney by Scott Prouty.

"You're not so sure that President Obama would have won re-election without this tape?" host Ed Schultz asked on "The Ed Show."

"I don't think so," he said. "It looked pretty rugged and a little bumpy there, and this was what threw it over the top."

MSNBC also misspelled Kernaghan's name in his interview alongside Prouty, identifying him as "Kernighan."
