...not a chance on that one. :0)

I read they were going to release some of them in Obama ads.They are going for the drip,drip,drip, so as to keep it in the news cycle for as long as possible.

W.ill it help or hurt Romney?It all depends on who gets out in front and frames the argument.

.

I can't see the Romney video,for all the smoke coming out of the Middle East.

No doubt; they have been holding them; and who knows what else; they are hanging onto for 'later'. Don't think; however; it will get Middle East off front page; at least for too long.

. . .hard to believe an Ambassador died and others; ME in flames; and we are forced to hear the Dem narrative per Mitt's demographic strategies.

No question either; that Mitt has to double down ever day; to deal with our 'third ugly rail' of politics.

They are spinning this as hurting Romney among suburban women, who will be unhappy with Romney’s “hard edge.”

Good grief....if this means more to women than their unemployed husbands and sons, $4 gas, food prices soaring etc., perhaps they shouldn’t vote at all.

well I hope its not the gay thing..I dont think independants and Dems care about it.Murder is a different story..The biggest think that swayed me is that in this time in history we need people with good sense that are pro american..we dont have that in the president or the democrat party

[dalebert]

NOt ALL will sponges will vote Obama..some dont want to be sponges ..some are struggling to get out. Some want more fore thier kids.

The problems of a middle east policy gone wrong—I believe it was some sort of stunt to make Obama look good—that went out of control and resulted in deaths that were not part of the plan. I think this caused the DNC to bring out the hidden video they had in their locker for two months—to counter the Mitt Romney rise in polls. This isn’t their only weapon! They will produce more “Gaffs” each week in October in an attempt to make Mitt look like—well—Dan Quail. I believe it will not work because Obama just isn’t very good at faking leadership.

I was born in poverty
I was raised in poverty.
I did not like poverty.
So I left poverty.......

It’s like the breaking of the “dam of truth”! Once cracked it will flow.... This is not news because the media and left will never address the subjuect but now we have many weeks ahead and debates to frame it and I believe it needed to be done. We should not damn those whom do not pay taxes, the 47% like the Liberals do the 1%, but explain why it is not good for the country to have half a population not doing better and not having a foot in the fire....

I think it helps Romney more than it hurts. He handled it well and that helped to make the difference.

Having said that, I believe that it is critical that he now stay in the fight and pound away.

"And terribly damaging Early November photos of his smirk."

More smirk, please. Better to smirk than Bobo's ridiculous El Duce poses...

And stop smacking your lips, Mitt!

[cableguymn]

Romney says anything remotely to the right of their center and they scream like stuck pigs.

Might as well stick um good I say ;)

[E. Pluribus Unum]

I don’t see how these videos hurt Romney, other than with the people who would never vote for him anyway.
