WALLACE: Another blunder that you may not have seen: On the day, Friday, when all the bad economic news came out, the Obama campaign decided that was the day to release a video of Anna Wintour—if you don’t know her, she is the editor of a fashion magazine, Vogue—saying to people contribute to the Obama campaign, you can come to a big exclusive dinner in New York that Sarah Jessica Parker and I are hosting. Take a look at this:
ANNA WINTOUR: Sarah Jessica and I both have our own reasons for supporting President Obama and we want to hear yours, so please join us—but just don't be late.
WALLACE: Yes, don't be late. And this is on the day when we find out that the economy created only 69,000 jobs. First of all, do you subscribe to Chip's idea that the campaign is off to a shaky start and if so, how big a deal?
JUAN WILLIAMS: By the way, that was hilarious. It looks like a parody. That looked like the Romney campaign planted Dr. Evil in the house of Obama and he said, you know on the day the grim job numbers come out let's have someone who reeks of ornamental excess announce that the peasants can have a place at the table. It was just unbelievable.
