Sign Of Desperation: Obama/Biden Actually Make "Binders Full Of Women" An Attack, Running An Ad And Bringing It Into Their Stump Speeches

There is no greater sign of desperation in the Obama camp than the fact that Obama and Biden have now actually attacked Romney over "binders full of women" on the stump. To any sane person that was not born from the womb a hopeless political hack, using this as an attack backfires, making it seem like the incumbent's campaign, in a characteristically unpresidential manner, is grasping at the flimsiest straws.

You can attack Romney for being a flip-flopper, you can attack him for being a "Massachusetts moderate" as he was in the primary, you can focus on Romneycare, or if you choose you can go in the other direction and attack him for being some sort of right wing extremist for whatever reason, you can attack him for his plans not being specific enough, you can go after him for picking Paul Ryan and go after the Ryan budget, or whatever the case may be. Regardless of the merits of any of this stuff, it at least gets to policies and credibility. Attacking him for saying "binders full of women" in reference to resumes for the most female populated cabinet in the country is just plain idiotic. It's meritless, senseless, nonsense, and a sign of desperation. I don't see how it can be seen by any person as a legitimate point. Anyone who thinks it is one is the worst sort of Kool Aid drinker there is. Not only did they take this absurd "binders" stuff to their stump speeches, they actually created an ad that concludes, “Seriously? Binders full of women? Mitt Romney just doesn’t get it.” What I don't get is what the hell they are doing running an ad about this with a straight face? This is bizarre, it really makes the Obama camp look like they've gone completely off the rails. Tweet
