Not Ann Romney.

Here's the problem: Up until this week, both Hilary Rosen and Ann Romney were virtual unknowns to most of the American people. Now, both women have their names prominently in the news, and for those Americans, the first impression of Ann is that she's a victim, while the first impression of Hilary Rosen is that she's just a typical "career woman" who looks down on women who don't work outside of the house.

It's not how to win a news cycle.
