Stupid Republicans think Dems are doing a "shiny object" campaign. Why that's just... Squirrel!

So this is getting some lefties in a tizy.

He'll govern as a pro-life president, but you're going to see the Democrats use all sorts of shiny objects to distract people's attention from the Obama performance on the economy. This is not a social issue election.

The reaction is rank disbelief that this isn't a social issue election followed by a  good twenty minutes of people complaining about that exact shiny object.  Followed by one about how galling it was to say that strengthening gender based equal pay was neither a major economic reform or a job creator.

Little bit of fun irony.
Edit: This is not to say that issue X is not important and that because someone of Party A says it's a "shiny distraction" it's illegitimate. It is funny when a list of such "shiny objects" is brought up when it actually does distract people.

And of course Mr A was there and added this chestnut.

Yeah I dunno, the large scale hoarding of resources by the top 1%, achieved by squeezing it out of everyone else, is kinda a social issue

Bravo Champagne Socialist. Bravo.  Funny thing, that comment didn't get any traction.

But the best part was later on  this story was laid out. Never mind the administration lying about Benghazi to make themselves look better,  no Palin said something that Carney and Cuomo have!

It's sorta racist!

Squirrel!
