Soledad O’Brien grills Romney aide: Your campaign is ‘just a hot mess’

I love Soledad O'Brien for going after these Romney and Repubs toads. She interviewed the always lovely Bay Buchanan this morning. Here are some excerpts from that interview:

“There’s a sense that the campaign is in big trouble,” O’Brien pointed out. “Bloomberg [News] writes, ‘Today Mitt Romney lost the election.’ Politico says the wheels are falling off. Is that correct? Is it just a hot mess in there?”

“Certainly this is a bump in the road,” Buchanan agreed. “But is anybody looking at the campaign of Barack Obama? He’s spent the last week with America watching as his foreign policy of appeasement and apologies has disintegrated. We have problems around this world in all the Muslim countries, where anti-American sentiment is unbelievable. And that’s a good week?”

“But aren’t you kind of answering your own question,” O’Brien pointed out. “When you say, isn’t anybody looking at the campaign of Barack Obama, isn’t it like, ‘No because look at the headlines’? You’re drawing focus from your own campaign by these headlines.”

“No, that’s an indictment on the media, Soledad,” Buchanan insisted. “Is it not a story that one out of every six Americans is in poverty? Is that not a much bigger story, that 47 million Americans have to take food stamps to take care of themselves and their families and that’s because of four years of Barack Obama, and that he has no new fresh ideas on how to put America back to work? That’s what Mitt Romney’s all about, that’s what our campaign is about. That seems to be a whole lot more important than some comment that he may have inarticulately stated.”

“I appreciate your spin on it,” O’Brien concluded. “But I think ‘inarticulately stated’ is the least of the problems.”

Ha! She is quite the interviewer. All these years I had no idea she could be this awesome.
