-------------------

CONCORD, N.H. – Returning to the campaign trail here Monday, Republican presidential front-runner Mitt Romney sought to blame the U.S. government’s credit downgrade squarely on President Obama.

Romney said the downgrade by ratings agency Standard & Poor’s, which has sparked a sharp drop in global financial markets, “punctuated once again the failure of leadership by the president.”

“It seems that they would substitute Harry Truman’s ‘the buck stops here’ with the new motto of the White House, which is ‘the buck stops somewhere else,’?” Romney told reporters in New Hampshire. “The truth is, the buck does stop at the president’s desk and he needs to exert the leadership necessary to restore America’s financial foundation, the credibility of our fiscal capacity and restore once again the balance sheet upon which our economy rests.”

Moments later, Romney addressed the downgrade at a roundtable with the Concord Chamber of Commerce. “It’s just blame, blame, blame. It’s a blame presidency,” Romney said.

1. i read "front-runner" as meaning he's in the lead for the republican nomination.

they can't call him the republican "nominee" yet.

though "likely nominee" or "nominee-to-be" or even "inevitable nominee" would be better as it would avoid confusion.

2. guess he hasn't heard of the TEA PARTY yet......
