"It was my early birthday present for someone to be critical of me as a mother, and that was really a defining moment, and I loved it." -- Mrs. Willard Romney, speaking to a crowd of mega-donors in Florida, exposing the Romney campaign's manufactured "outrage" over a Democratic pundit's comment that Mrs. Willard "never worked a day in her life." What the pundit was referring to is the fact that Mrs. Willard never worked outside the home, as many women without her wealth have to, so she wasn't the best choice to be giving Willard advice on women's economic issues.
Of course, as we noted yesterday, say-anything-Willard said in January that women with 2 year old kids should go back to work so that they could experience the "dignity of work." So much for Mrs. Willard's stay-at-home mom schtick.
