Obama strategy: Go after Romney’s skinny jeans UPDATE: Video corrected “Hope and change”

August 10, 2011 | Jim Vicevich | | ,

Ummm … yup … that’s the strategy to get the One re-elected. Demonize Romney. Make sure people know he’s weird. Hey, when your economic policies are a failure, what else can you do?

Yesterday on the Morning Joe the Politico’s Patrick Gavin said that the Obama campaign’s political strategy will be to go after Romney now but not on policy. Know the campaign intends to go after Mitt Romney on his weariness. So what constitutes weird? Could it be his religion? Oh no. It seems skinny jeans. Listen to this conversation from the morning Joe.

Those are some pretty big words coming from the campaign represents a man who wears mom jeans. Remember this one?

UPDATE: I am so sorry, I uploaded the wrong video yesterday. Same topic but that was the Ben Smith interview. Here’s the Patrick Gavin skinny jeans video from the morning Joe. Much funnier … same stupid strategy.

    Portray Romney as “not authentic”???? And what is ?bama going to run on?? We don’t even know what courses he took in college etc.!
    ?
    Romney can’t be trusted??? And what is ?bama going to run on?? Keeping his promises?
    ?
    Romney as a “Wall St. raider”??? And what is ?bama going to run on?? Taxes, a raid on everyone?
    ?
    Romney as “weird”??? And what does ?bama have to run on?? Being some sort of community organizer??
    ?
    As noted, ?bama wears Mom jeans and throws like a girl.? I would advise them not to go down the religion route with his 20 years in the Church of Rev. Wright to live down.
    ?
    Can you say “desperation”?? Can you say “nothing to run on”?

    Should he really be focusing on jeans, as I remember the ’09 All Star Game in St Louis.

    Barry is running on giving away the store- that has a lot of appeal.? I hope Jim can find a clip of Homer Simpson running for mayor- his slogan: “Let Someone Else Do It!”? He ran the whole town broke with cradle to grave entitlements…

    It was “Trash of the Titans”?? Season 9 episode 22:
    “”Can’t someone else do it?” Homer spreads his message to the town and promises expensive services such as round-the-clock garbage service and having the sanitation workers do all the cleaning, which works, leading to his landslide victory in the election. After being sworn in to the office, he shows what he plans to do by singing a parody of “The Candy Man” entitled “The Garbage Man”.[2]””???

    I don’t care who slams Mitt,he ain’t fitt to sitt in the big chair.

      RICBEE, you are right. However, if Romney gets the GOP nod, is President Obama fit to sit in the big Chair? Please don’t tell me you won’t vote then, or I will hunt you down and taz you. Oh sorry, I guess that’s against RVO rules, so I’ll just nag you on the blog.

    Nobody coming close to Mitt “Corporations are people, my friends” Romney in the polls.
    You are soooo screwed!

      Just as unions are people.
