(CNSNews.com) - As part of its Tuesday night convention coverage, Fox News assembled a panel of political analysts to discuss Ann Romney's speech. Charles Krauthammer called it a "triumph," and Brit Hume said it was "the single most effective political speech Ive ever heard given by a political wife."
But their fellow panelist Juan Williams -- a Democrat -- panned Mrs. Romney's effort to connect with women, describing her as a "corporate wife" whose claim to understand the struggles of American women fell flat.
"Ann Romney ... looked to me like a corporate wife. The stories she told about struggles eh! It's hard for me to believe. I mean, she's a very rich woman, and I know that, and America knows that."

Juan-o is not looking too good..... and sounding even worse (dumber).
He has a point some what, I personally would have like to have had a working husband of a candidate like Todd Palin instead, but you have to go with what you have. Its the hand we’ve been dealt.
“A Corporate Wife”!!! The HORROR!!! is she worse then the devil??
seriously , not knowing much about Mitt or his CW, My wife and I really enjoyed her speech. She seems pretty bright and well spoken...
She was also easy on the eyes... :)
But I am sure Mrs Zero has TONS more real world experience and is much closer to my life*
*sarc..
And what is wrong with being a corporate wife?
To be fair to Williams, I have heard many people on both right and left denigrate women who have chosen to be helpmates to their husband’s career.

Well, you'll be grabbing it a lot, and I'm doing the same. Since Juan was ditched by NPR and became more full time on Fox, he seems to pop up on almost every program throughout the day, taking the liberal side. Actually, I used to think he was fairly tolerable for a liberal, but now he's on too often and it's easy to become tired of seeing him. He's definitely overexposed, whatever a viewer might think of his commentary.
I thought the most insulting thing Juan said came when he was pressed by Megyn Kelly to explain what he meant by “corporate wife. Juan answered, “She looks like a woman whose husband takes care of her.”
Michelle Malkin Tweet:
In prog(gressive) world “corporate wives” are out of touch, but CRONY wives who wear $600 sneakers & take $500k Spanish vacays are salt of the earth!
Juan, you little bitch, what is it about breast cancer and MS that you don’t understand?
So, we're voting for wives now, come November?
So, we're voting for wives now, come November? Who CARES what Juan,or anyone else for that matter, say about a family member of a candidate?
Juan Williams job is to give the left line. Fox brings him and people like Alan Colmes in to maintain their “fair and balanced” slogan. Often, I don’t think they believe what they are saying, but that is what they get paid to do.
What a crazy concept....a male and a female cleave unto one another , become helpmates, and become sucessful in America,
next thing you know they will declare “we built this “
Juan only understands one thing. She is white.
Juan Williams continues to bite the hand [Fox] that feeds him. He should be fired for this ... immediately.
Juan’s prejudices are showing.
FOX: get rid of this stupid, rude liberal.
Juan provides FOX with the left-leaning side it needs for some ‘balance’
Otherwise we would need to switch channels and expose ourselves to (*shudder*) Rachel Maddow or (*cringe*) Big Ed on MSNBC or something
“A corporate wife.”
Oh the horrors, Juan. She supports her husband. How dare she?
