President Obama sums up Mitt Romney's campaign: 'A tweet with characters to spare'

Is this @mittromney's next tweet?
President Obama on Mitt Romney and the 2012 presidential campaign, according to the White House pool report:
"The good news is, the American people generally agree with our vision. If you just put in front of them, issue after issue and you present the Democratic approach and the Republican approach, we win. The challenge is because folks are still hurting right now, the other side feels that its enough for them to just sit back and say, Things arent as good as they should be and its Obamas fault. And, you can pretty much put their campaign on, on a tweet and have some characters to spare.
He also added, "There's not a country that wouldn't trade places with us."

(2,774 posts)1. Not bad. Now add: "Even though the Republicans blocked 99% of my legislation
to help Americans, they say It's Obama's Fault".
Problem is: They just use the clip that has Obama saying "It's Obama's fault"...No job? (Play clip), low pay? (play clip).

Of course, the subtlety won't penetrate the tea bag mental processes -- I use that terminology with suitable caveats.
They're loonies.
