Al Hunt & Co. Go For "Shock and Awe" ??

I told you that as the 2012 campaign starts Al Hunt & Co. over at Bloomberg News would kick it into gear attacking any and all opponents of the President and the Democrats. I didn't think it would get going this early, but Al & Co. out of first gear, shifting into second. Today's target it Paul Ryan's budget plan. It earns the attention of not one, but two attacks - 1) it won't save much, and it goes too easy on the wealthy, and 2) (they're really bringing out the big guns here) it hurts women.

Frankly, I'm a little befuddled by this last attack. The Ryan plan hasn't exactly caused a groundswell, it's support is tepid at best and yet the MSM/Democrat complex is leveling the charge of charges, the bazooka of all right-bashing criticisms - the charge that something hurts women. It would seem that they are laying it on too thick, trying to swat the fly with a sledgehammer. This tells me that the Ryan plan actually has more support inside the Beltway than the media are letting on, or that Al Hunt & Co. have adopted a "shock and awe' approach to their 2012 supporting bombing campaign. If it is the later, I predict Al & Co. will break their record of 7/14/05 during this cycle.
