hypercrites

I caught a few minutes if the insufferable Lawrence O'Donnell show last night.  In the addled mind of O'Donnell this tape of Romney speaking to his base was the political equivalent of the 9/11 attacks.

Where were you when the first building was struck?  Where were you when Romney spoke the truth?

Now this may indeed turn out bad for Romney.  I don't know how it can be portrayed in a positive light given the fact that the MSM will all over this story like white-on-rice for the next couple of months but it may not catch fire with the voting public.

We can only hope that it will turn out like Fast and Furious.  A snoozer-of-a-topic for the voters.

Bearing in mind the two sets of standards for the candidates I seem to recall a NYT's blog where is was argued Obama has given up on the white middlecass vote, although Obama himself never said it.  The argument about the 47% not paying taxes and supporting Obama policy is not a new argument.  But never voiced so openly and to the point.  I think it will be a snoozer because people are still centered on the economy.
