Romney's Binders Cost Him Presidential Debate

After a debate on the state of the economy under President Obama, as well as the administration's foreign policy, Mitt Romney and the President seemed to have both stalemated one another after Mitt's debate victory on October 4th. However, Romney makes a second blunder that was almost as bad as the quote on 47% of Americans being,

'dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe that government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you name it. '

or his viewpoint of

'Palestinians not wanting to see peace anyway, for political purposes, committed to the destruction and elimination of Israel'

This time,  Romney says,

'I went to a number of women's groups and said, "Can you help us find folks," and they brought us whole binders full of women...I was proud of the fact that after I staffed my Cabinet and my senior staff, that the University of New York in Albany did a survey of all 50 states, and concluded that mine had more women in senior leadership positions than any other state in America'

Within hours this quote made internet memes and as of writing, has over 316,000  'fans' on facebook.

Here are the memes



So far polls show Romney leading at 46-50% with Obama at 46-48%; different estimations come from different companies. So far electoral votes are at 237 for Obama to 191 for Romney. The offical votes do not start until November 6 so polls or electoral votes so far are only performance indicators.
