I looked up this question on google, "what percentage of the us population pays no federal income tax", and here's what came back:
The Tax Policy Center has updated its estimate of the percentage of households that will not pay federal income tax this year. We now figure it is 45.3 percent, nearly 5 percentage points higher than our 2013 estimate of 40.4 percent. But that doesn't mean more Americans have moved off the tax rolls.Oct 6, 2015
This is what Romney was talking about, although his figures were a bit off. Anyway, like I said, it's a kind of stupid thing to say if you are a politician, albeit statistically fairly accurate.
