DNC, MoveOn.org to follow Romney's bus tour

[jenmito]

On the same day Mitt Romney launches his five-day bus tour in New Hampshire Friday, the Democratic National Committee will kick off a bus tour of its own in the Granite State.

With the goal of pointing to Romney's economic policies, which they argue "throw Middle Class Americans under the bus," the tour will include at least ten stops -- with most arrivals timed slightly ahead of the presumptive GOP presidential nominee.

Both buses are scheduled to travel through New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Iowa, Wisconsin and Michigan -- all likely battleground states this fall. A number of potential GOP running mates are also slated to appear with Romney.

The DNC, however, isn't the only group chasing the Romney bus.

MoveOn.org, a liberal advocacy group, will trail the Romney camp in a Cadillac with what it described as NASCAR-style decals and a dog on top -- a nod to a widely-cited story involving Romney driving his family car with his dog locked in a crate on the roof of his car.

2. Can't wait to hear the tales from the road

I give it less than a week til the DNC bus will wake up to flat tires, or engine trouble. And I hope the Cadillac is well insured.

3. I'm hoping to see reports in the news starting today...

since the DNC will be fact-checking Romney on the trail.

4. Oh yes, that will be enjoyable

Smart strategy, because it will make it harder for Romney to prevaricate his way into the WH.

I am just saying that we already have an idea of how Romney's team plays, and it isn't fair or above board.

5. That's right...

Romney's team DOESN'T play fair. They lie, play dirty tricks, and lie some more. And when caught, Romney always says, nonsensically, "What's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander," which implies Obama's team did these things first. But they didn't do such dirty tricks nor lie. I'm glad that the Dems. are finally going on the offense with Romney.

6. Just saw a picture of the Romney-Mobil on Hardball. nt

7. So did I. Too bad Smerconish mispronounced "mobile." He pronounced it as

if it were a "mobile" phone.

9. Yes, I heard that. But he did point out Seamus on the roof.

He was positive about it, and I think that is what counts most.

8. I can't wait to see this!

I hope that it gets plenty of publicity. Must Tweet this.
