Seemed like an overblown response to me too

A Romney spokesperson responded to an incredibly disingenuous attack with "Oh yeah, well Romneycare solves this problem."

Obviously this isn't encouraging to conservatives. Stacy McCain notes that Erick Erickson reacted by, basically, giving up on the entire Romney campaign 3 whole months before the election.

Stacy thinks this is a bit overblown. That was my reaction as well. Can we not admit that someone who is, at least nominally, on "our" side did something stupid without concluding that all is instantly lost?
