Romney says Obama just trying to ‘hang onto power’
Republican presidential challenger Mitt Romney charged Wednesday that President Barack Obama is running a campaign “of enmity and jealousy and anger” and called on him to lift the tone of political discourse.
In an escalation of an increasingly acrimonious campaign, Romney went on national television to say he thinks Obama is “running just to hang onto power, and I think he would do anything in his power” to remain in office.
Asked if he was worried that people would think the presidential campaign has become “unhinged,” the former Massachusetts governor replied, “I think unhinged would have to characterize what we’ve seen from the president’s campaign.”
“These personal attacks, I think, are just demeaning to the office of the White House,” he added.

I think Romney understands what he is up against. He is no John McCain.

I’m glad to see he’s finally taking charge instead of defensive weakness.

People are STARVED for someone with the guts to tell it like it is. Finally!

Before you can have civil discourse in the campaign, you have to have an incumbent that doesn’t excuse himself to go outside every 30 minutes to urinate on the White House.

It’s true. I would also bring up that Obummer declared himself the 4th greatest president in history with accomplishments that he would gladly stack up against everybody else.
Yet Barry and his cohorts in the media want to talk about Bain Capital, tax records and the GOP wanting to throw the middle class back in “chains”. If I had a record I was proud of, I would shout it from the rooftops.
I guess Valerie Jarret knows better than that.
