Obama's Next Campaign Commercial

Fresh off of the attempt to "Bane"ify Mitt,I wonder how long it will be before Barack's David twins attempt to co-opt Russell Crowe's Jor-El narration to remind the people of the REAL story behind The One's birth.

"You are here to be a symbol for the people. They may stumble, but eventually they will follow you into the Sun." (I'm guessing that that's meant to be metaphorical although the hubris (and foolish naivete') of Icarus do come to mind when I think of #44 - I'll dig deeper with Russell next time we're brawling)

Attack of the Crazies

Lefty media commenters are positing that (stay with me here) Mitt Romney, during his appearance at the NAACP conference on Wednesday, baited the audience into booing him by mentioning his intention to repeal Obamacare.

The theory is that This was part of a calculated move to appeal to white racists who would see the 45 seconds (of a 25 minute speech) and say to themselves, "mitt's getting booed by those black people; he must be ok" or soemthing like that.

Hey, MSNBC, You know what might be an easier strategy for Mitt if he was concerned about locking in that all important "white racist" vote?

Be a white guy running against the black guy.

Conspiracy theories are fun.

Are the Bane Attacks working?


Am I the only person who notices that the Obama campaign has been spending money and time for months, laying the foundation for associating Mitt Romney in low-information, undecided voters' minds with the agent of Gotham's reckoning and all around destructive force, Bane?

Sure, "Bain" and "Bane" are spelled differently but remember (a) Teem Mitt has already laid a foundashun for spelling gaphs and, more importantly, (b) low information, undecided voters are pretty much, by definition, sort of stupid. 

It's time the Romney campaign take these attacks seriously and attempt to "reframe" the discussion.  After all, the stage is set to get voters to associate Mitt not to some charismatic, class-warfare inciting enigmatic stranger, but to the fabulously wealthy, reasonably boring, and impeccably tailored Bruce Wayne (Getting them to think "Batman" initially may be a stretch but per the Mrs. Romney, there's no telling what might happen when we unzip Mitt...Secondary benefit, we're already prepared for our Sidekick Branding.  Mittman "and Ryan" or Mittman "and Rubio-n" just roll off the tongue.
