Mitt’s new slogan, “more jobs, less debt, smaller government,” veers away from social issues while also positioning him for a run against Obama. I propose that Obama respond with “Saving Medicare and Social Security.”
Rick Santorum is bitter about Romney’s far better financed campaign outspending him in Ohio. Nevertheless, Rick said hopefully: “Money’s not going to buy this election.” I just don’t get it. Doesn’t Rick believe that rich people earned their dough by their hard work and smarts? So shouldn’t they be able to spend it however they want? Or is Rick coming out in favor of campaign spending limits? I think he just isn’t praying hard enough.
With that slogan, Romney is moving back towards the middle. It reminds me of Hawaii’s Lt. Gov. James “Duke” Aiona saying in 2009 that Republicans must return to core principles of lower taxes, smaller government and greater personal freedom.
