Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney will deliver a powerful rebuke of President Obama’s campaign this evening. His remarks come after Vice President Joe Biden told supporters “They’re going to put y’all back in chains” — speaking about Republicans. The Obama campaign later said the president did not have a problem with Biden’s statement. Following are the excerpts from Romney’s speech: “For the first time, most Americans believe that our best days are behind us. This is an election in which we should be talking about the path ahead, but you don’t hear any answers coming from President Obama’s re-election campaign. That’s because he’s intellectually exhausted, out of ideas, and out of energy. And so his campaign has resorted to diversions and distractions, to demagoguing and defaming others. This is an old game in politics; what’s different this year is that the president is taking things to a new low. "His campaign and his surrogates have made wild and reckless accusations that disgrace the office of the Presidency. Another outrageous charge came a few hours ago in Virginia. And the White House sinks a little bit lower. “This is what an angry and desperate Presidency looks like. “President Obama knows better, promised better and America deserves better. “Over the last four years, this President has pushed Republicans and Democrats as far apart as they can go. And now he and his allies are pushing us all even further apart by dividing us into groups. He demonizes some. He panders to others. His campaign strategy is to smash America apart and then cobble together 51 percent of the pieces. "So, Mr. President, take your campaign of division and anger and hate back to Chicago and let us get about rebuilding and reuniting America.” http://radio.foxnews.com/toddstarnes/top-stories/romney-obamas-campaign-disgraces-presidency.html Its game on Obama and R&R are taking the fight to you.
Absolutely. We are going to see a contrast of style and mannerism as stark as has ever been in US politics: on one side, smart, successful, sophisticated, proven leaders; on the other, sleazy, lifetime pols....
