Friends Of Big Dawg: Romney is proposing---"exactly the opposite of what Clinton did in office.”

Veterans of the Clinton administration warn that Romney’s love letters to the former president — who has appeared at fundraisers and in TV ads for Obama — could backfire with voters. “Maybe it’s a good one-liner for today, though I’m not sure that the public doesn’t see through it,” said John Podesta, who was a White House chief of staff under Clinton and co-chaired Obama’s transition team. “All it does is, in the long term, all it will do is elevate President Clinton’s views of the economy.” Clinton, Podesta noted, raised taxes in office, which administration veterans credit for boosting the ‘90s economy for which Romney claims to be nostalgic. “If he’d be for what Clinton was for, maybe that would help him,” Podesta said. “If voters think back to those days, and if they look at what Romney is proposing, it’s exactly the opposite of what Clinton did in office.” –
