Morale in President Obamas reelection campaign is said to be soaring since Muslim mobs have attacked US embassies in the Middle East.
Anything that gets the dismal economic news off the front page has got to be a plus for the president, said a campaign official who declined to be identified. Add to this the premise that we all should be rallying around the president in a show of unity and its clearly a big boost for his reelection campaign.
Obama wasted no time in an effort to exploit this perceived lucky break as he lambasted rival Mitt Romneys shoot first, aim later response to the crisis. Voters dont want a president who hastily condemns actions before hearing both sides of the story, the president asserted. They want to be reassured that their government will take a measured approach.
Major media spokesmen favorably contrasted the Obama Administrations measured approach with Romneys irresponsible and ham-fisted remarks. Romney was quick to point the finger of blame at protesters, but took his sweet time before he criticized the blasphemous video for its role in the events, said NBCs Chuck Todd. Compare this to President Obamas immediate recognition of the root cause of the outbreak: disrespect for Islam. I think that when voters consider which of two candidates is more likely to take the steps needed to address the root cause of Muslim violence well see a major swing in favor of reelecting the president.
