...Obama has hit them hard, and made romney whine like a little girl. The republicans have been demanding apologies, and getting laughed at. That makes them look weak and ineffective. So they're sending people out to talk trash, waiting for the Obama campaign to start demanding apologies, that they can then ignore.

I don't think the President is going to give them that satisfaction.

It'll be interesting to see how low the republicans will sink in their search for that one slur that will have the Dems howling for an apology.
