At a fundraiser, President Barack Obama accused Gov. Mitt Romney of running a campaign with no message, doing nothing but casting blame on the president for the economy:
“The challenge is because folks are still hurting right now, the other side feels that it’s enough for them to just sit back and say, ‘Things aren’t as good as they should be and it’s Obama’s fault,’” the president said at a fundraiser at a private residence in Maryland. “And you can pretty much put their campaign on, on a tweet and have some characters to spare.”
Well, Mr. President, that is a message. The point is that you have been President for three years and some months, and you had a Democratic Congress for the first two years of that period, and the economy is not so great. What you keep trying to do is divert the American public from the terrible economic situation because you know that if (to quote a campaign strategist for the Democrats in 1992) “it's the economy, stupid,” you cannot win this election. The reason Mitt Romney and the Republicans are saying “Things aren’t as good as they should be and it’s Obama’s fault,” is that things aren’t as good as they should be and it is Obama’s fault.
