Scarborough: "Keep Talking About Binders And Mitt Romney Will Win In A Landslide"

Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski argue about Mitt Romney's "binders of women" remark.



Mika Brzezinski: I am personally bringing this up because I cannot believe he told that story to the American people. And prepared it for the American people and it turns out not to be true.



Joe Scarborough: Well, again, if you want to focus on this…



Mika Brzezinski: Forget it being completely focused on women, it just happens to be a little insulting. That he had to make up a story about trying to help women because he couldn’t find one on his own.



Joe Scarborough: That’s ridiculous, Mika. That is absolutely ridiculous that he couldn’t find a woman on his own. This just shows how desperate Democrats are right now. It’s ridiculous. If this concerns you, I guarantee you, this is your concern, that’s not the concern of a waitress that’s trying to keep her two jobs in Youngstown Ohio, who are actually right now moving to Mitt Romney because they don’t think President Obama has a strong enough record on the economy.



Mika Brzezinski: Well, we can argue Obama’s record on the economy, and we could probably have a very spirited debate about that. And by the way, women have done better under the Obama economy than men.



Joe Scarborough: Then argue that instead of “BinderGate.”



Mika Brzezinski: You know what, I do think it connects to the waitress. And it connects to the middle class. I think women who hear this story and a few others, in terms of legislation that Mitt Romney would or would not support. I think women feel like the middle class. Does he get us? You needed to change a story about a bipartisan group that sent you names of very accomplished women to hire because you didn’t have one of your own?



Joe Scarborough: Keep talking about binders, and Mitt Romney will win in a landslide.
