Romney: Obama’s Campaign Disgraces Presidency
Fox News ^ | Tuesday, August 14, 2012 | Todd Starnes

Posted on 08/14/2012 4:55:23 PM PDT by kristinn

Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney will deliver a powerful rebuke of President Obama’s campaign this evening. His remarks come after Vice President Joe Biden told supporters “They’re going to put y’all back in chains” — speaking about Republicans.

The Obama campaign later said the president did not have a problem with Biden’s statement.

Following are the excerpts from Romney’s speech:

“For the first time, most Americans believe that our best days are behind us. This is an election in which we should be talking about the path ahead, but you don’t hear any answers coming from President Obama’s re-election campaign. That’s because he’s intellectually exhausted, out of ideas, and out of energy. And so his campaign has resorted to diversions and distractions, to demagoguing and defaming others. This is an old game in politics; what’s different this year is that the president is taking things to a new low.

SNIP

"His campaign and his surrogates have made wild and reckless accusations that disgrace the office of the Presidency. Another outrageous charge came a few hours ago in Virginia. And the White House sinks a little bit lower.

“This is what an angry and desperate Presidency looks like.

“President Obama knows better, promised better and America deserves better.

“Over the last four years, this President has pushed Republicans and Democrats as far apart as they can go. And now he and his allies are pushing us all even further apart by dividing us into groups. He demonizes some. He panders to others. His campaign strategy is to smash America apart and then cobble together 51 percent of the pieces.

SNIP

"So, Mr. President, take your campaign of division and anger and hate back to Chicago and let us get about rebuilding and reuniting America.”

At the least, Romney won’t shy away from getting down and dirty like McCain did four years ago.

Romney's got more fight in him than McCain. Picking Ryan helped. I'm still not sold but Obama and his regime have got to go come January 20, 2013.

Romney is right to call out Obama for trying to 'smash this country apart.' It's a welcome change from McCain's sorry campaign.

Exactly! When in a fight you have to be willing to throw leather.

The Kenyan and his puppet are in full panic mode. He KNOWS he’s going to lose.

Call me crazy but I am I the only one who thinks that Biden is going to come up some sort of “health issue” soon?

I have no faith in Romney yet.

Respect is earned and he must prove he has the strength to Go on the offensive.

Go on the offensive. Bring up the war dead. Bring up crony capitalism. Bring up the fact Obama was raised Muslim in another country.

I have no idea what Biden’s going to do but I can tell you that my house was polled a couple of nites ago about the prospect of Hillary Clinton on the ticket.

"He KNOWS he’s going to lose."

I think you're right, and that makes him supremely dangerous. This guy holds the nuclear "football" and will continue to do so from 07 November 2012 through 20 January 2013.

Mayhap the Mayans were correct and the world will end in fire on 21 December 2012 after all. . .

That's some good stuff! I'm excited about Ryan joining the ticket, and I believe the R&R team will run away with the election in November!

ABO '12!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

McCain didn't run a campaign. It was a long, drawn out photo op.
