    Hef is right there with you, except he's got so many binders he has to date them, so not quite "anonymous binders."

    btw: what exactly do you mean by "anonymous binders." Like maybe we thought his staff put "Good," "Better," "Best" labels on the binders to unfairly sway the Governor's employee selection process. You're right, HR departments would never filter a CEOs pile of resumes or anything. They would just be blank folders of resumes.

    In the debate, Romney said he wanted qualified women to add to his cabinet. He went to women's groups to look for candidates, and the groups gave him "binders full of women".

    I don't get it, why is a collection of female resumes controversial?

    What's the punchline?

    The punchline is "binders full of women" sounds awkward and creepy.

    Not at all, this whistling past the graveyard obsession with Big Bird and dishes and binders is reinforcing a perception of failure and unseriousness. It's poor man's Alinsky tactics (he would be embarrassed at the ineptitude).

    Goes hand in hand with Biden laughing and smirking.

    If you listened to the FNC and MSNBC focus groups after the debate this was clear.

    The left is giggling and smirking their way to a one term presidency. Fine by me.

    I'm not "the left" but I am giggling and smirking about this.

    He didn't say "husbands and children." He said "families." I took that as a reflection of the increasing number of single mothers, who generally are going to be the ones making dinner for their families, rather than making the kids do it themselves.

    This is the second time you have conveniently left out the CNN focus group where 14 independents stated they will vote for Obama now, and only 6 wil now vote for Romney.... and of course you left out the other polls strictly geared at independents....... I will give you credit this time you didn't post under Mojoman.
