Jay Leno or Jesse Watters would have a field day with this crowd. Dick Morris did not equate marriage to politics. He is a political (read: social) scientist who used an analogy that most everyone should be able to easily relate to. That is:

“Do you want Barack Obama to be your president one year from now?” There are three simple responses to this:
1) A firm “Yes”.
2) A firm “No”.
3) “I don’t know.”

Assuming those who answered “I don’t know” will make up their minds and vote this November, Mr. Morris believes that most of them will ultimately choose “No”, and vote for Romney.

Why does he believe that? Well, answer this:
“Do you want to still be married to your spouse one year from now?
There are three simple responses to this:
1) A firm “Yes”.
2) A firm “No”.
3) “I don’t know.”

Mr. Morris contends that, when it comes to someone whom you have staked your future to and you answer “I don’t know”, then you’ve probably already concluded that this isn’t working out and just haven’t come to terms with that decision yet.

To stay in a marriage is a very complex, personal, and private decision based on several factors. Choosing and supporting a political candidate does not compare to that at all. Dick Morris was way out of line, especially if this was the second time he has done this comparison with Gretchen. Hope the powers that be make it clear to Dick not to do this again.

Mr. Morris has used his analogy of marriage several times and in several forums including every FNC programme he has appeared on over the past year, and he first used it in one of his recent books. His question is a rhetorical one that has nothing whatsoever to do with Ms. Carlson’s personal life. I am reasonably certain from both her body language as well as from comments made by her during a recent guest-hosting of Kilmeade & Friends that she was entirely aware of that.

I’m no fan of Dick Morris but that is, actually, a fitting way to describe how most “undecideds” will likely vote this November.

Bravo to Gretch, her personal life is nobody’s business but her own. Very unprofessional and way out of line for Mr. Morris to use marriage as a metaphor when discussing politics.
