JESSE WATTERS, FOX NEWS: Now, be honest, were you here for the musical acts or President Obama?
GLORIA ALLRED: I’m a very proud supporter of President Obama. I was an elected Obama delegate to the democratic National Convention,I just had a few words with the President.
WATTERS: What did he tell you?
ALLRED: Well, I’ll just say he was very kind to me. He had some very kind words to me. And he knows of my work for women’s rights. And I of course am very appreciative of everything he has done and everything I know he will do in four years for women’s rights. And it’s so essential that we re-elect President Obama because the alternative is just unthinkable.
In case you were wondering what her “October surprise” is, The Blaze seems to have figured it out. Here’s the gist of it:
Astute readers can see the problem. Romney will likely be accused by Allred of deliberately misrepresenting Staples’ stock prices in order to cheat a friend’s ex-wife out of divorce money. The “damned if you did, damned if you didn’t” conundrum is obvious in the narrative the Left could spin. If Romney didn’t lie about the stock prices and really thought the company was about to go belly up, then his negotiations to take the company public suggest he was cheating his clients, Allred et al will argue. If Romney didn’t think the company was going to go belly up, then he used his economic influence to defraud a woman, and a victim of adultery.
