Stephanie Cutter turns red on 'Piers Morgan Tonight' defending $5 trillion fib (again)

Math remains a tough subject for Obama deputy campaign manager Stephanie Cutter. Already called out by CNN’s Erin Burnett for alleging that Mitt Romney planned to run up a $5 trillion tab via tax cuts, Cutter went for Round 2 on the network with Piers Morgan on Tuesday night.

Cutter waved around a sheet of paper with some numbers on it, but many viewers were more fascinated by the change in her complexion and some heavy blinking. Code, perhaps?

I think @stefcutter is blinking SOS. How do I spin this crap? #PiersMorgan

So @StefCutter came on CNN just to yell, "He's wrong!" over and over again. Team Obama really not sure what to do here.

Perhaps inspired by Cutter, Morgan even gave his own attempt at spin.

She was certainly impassioned, no? RT @PatrickMillsaps: Is @stefcutter getting hives on @PiersTonight?

Ah yes, impassioned. Joe Biden is known as the gift that keeps on giving, but as long as he remains locked up before his debate Thursday, Cutter makes a fine substitute. More, please.
