'It was so transparent, what they were trying to do. Mitt Romney has been taking heat for weeks now' [View all]
________________
Obama deputy campaign manager Stephanie Cutter appeared on Starting Point Wednesday morning, where she was asked to respond to yesterdays release of a 2007 video showing then-candidate Barack Obama discussing the Stafford Act and the response to Hurricane Katrina.
Th Romney campaign, as host Soledad OBrien noted, recently released a statement saying it is not involved in distributing the video. Cutter responded, pointing to who she thinks is responsible:
Well, I think allies to Mitt Romney are responsible and I think that the Romney campaign should stand up and do the right thing and say that it was irresponsible to do something like that, particularly on the eve of the debate.
And it was so transparent, what they were trying to do. Mitt Romney has been taking heat for weeks now for his secret comments behind closed doors with his wealthy donors that he didnt care about half of this country. Their answer to that is to put out an already publicly-released speech that the President gave five years ago where he was talking about the reaction to Hurricane Katrina and the inadequate reaction to Hurricane Katrina. You know what, its an interesting strategy by Mitt Romney and his allies that they actually want to defend the Bush administration response.
(BOOM!)
