Romney’s “binders” quote goes viral
Mitt Romney's poor phrasing inspired a new meme during the October 16 town hall presidential debate. The social media buzz began just minutes after Romney mentioned the "binders full of women" he received while enlisting the help of women's groups to hire his female staff. Here are some of our favorites from bindersfullofwomen.tumblr.com.

He still has a shot, despite the fact that his economic plan is, in fact a "sketchy deal" (as Obama put it) and the math doesn't add up, and even despite the 47% statement because he gets away with blatant lies in those debates and because the media is trying to shape public opinion to paint some narrative of a Romney "comeback" or "growing/surging momentum". Also, there's that "Bradley effect" thing to consider as well.

no it wouldnt. Actually if he wins he would only confirm the status quo we've all known for so long... that to be black is an added disadvantage in america.

There are lots of mid-aged men who would vote for Obama instead if he were white, so sadly, you are right.

Agreed! Some people saying he didn't do what he promised is a bunch of malarkey ( undecided) I don't think anyone would have done better given the condition of things 3-4years ago. I have said it too to my friends, if Romanus wins, it is because of his being 'white'
