OMFG - Romney campaign responds to Clinton DNC speech



Romney campaign responds to Clinton DNC speech

(CNN) - GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney's campaign issued a statement after former President Bill Clinton's address to the Democratic National Convention on Tuesday night, saying Clinton "drew a stark contrast between himself and President Obama."

"Bill Clinton worked with Republicans, balanced the budget, and after four years he could say you were better off," Romney campaign spokesman Ryan Williams wrote. "Barack Obama hasn’t worked across the aisle – he’s barely worked with other Democrats – and has the worst economic record of any president in modern history.

"President Clinton’s speech brought the disappointment and failure of President Obama’s time in office clearly into focus,” Williams continued.

That's all those guys understand - everything through a "hate filter". It doesn't occur to them that two different people with their own ways of looking at things might not actually hate each other. Sometimes people even admire one other, without being identical.

It doesn't sound from the OP like he even watched Clinton's speech.

and the biggest problem that I see is that Romney's voters are NOT excited about him and a unified Democratic Party right now is something they would really like to fracture.

"an alternate reality".


The repiglicans didn't just get their arse kicked by Clinton, they were also skillfully and surgically castrated AND eviscerated. No matter what they say or post, they are still grabbing where their testicles USED to be-they just don't understand it all yet.




"YEEEEEHAW!"
