If the Ann Romney stay-at-home-mom thing continues

Romney and his people need to be asked one question, over and over:

"While Ann was staying home raising the children, what was the size and composition of the domestic staff she had at her disposal?"

Just keep asking it; whether or not they answer, it puts them back on the losing side of the question.

Even the person who made the original tweet is doing a swift moonwalk.

He already took a ham handed approach to trying to flip the discussion, claiming that its Obama at has a war on women.

That kind of reverse positioning, in which you project your weakness onto your opponent is a standard GOP tactic ... but Romney's use of it has been so ridiculous, that it comes off desperate.

And the stay at home mom thing is another loser. Romney's policies around woman, working or stay at home, suck.
