The saddest/funniest part of the “Redistribution” video story, is that this is what the Republicans were holding back. This is what they wanted to keep under wraps until the perfect time. This is what they thought would be as big of a bombshell as the “47%” video.

And in the end, all it is, is “Joe the Plumber”….10 years before “Joe the Plumber” became a thing. An attack that didn’t work last time, made even more ineffective by the fact that the comments are 10 years older, rather than comments that have come out SINCE 2008.

And they blew their load now, when it will barely even register as a blip because of Romney’s video.

Completely incompetent.

It’s even worse, because the recording itself is totally uncontroversial. He wasn’t even saying he wanted to “redistribute wealth” (Marxism!). He was talking about redistributing government resources to better serve the community.

I know, this won’t stop them from still trying to claim it’s evidence of his secret commie nature, but sane people will never fall for it. Only the already deranged will give a shit.
