Libya Becomes Central Theme At Romney Rally

Brought up initially by Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani

Then the article had this paragraph:

****************************EXCERPT**************************************

But the parade of high-profile surrogates who opened for the candidate fixated on another, more explosive issue — one with a particular power to both animate conservatives, and frighten Romney's senior staff. For about 60 minutes before Romney took the stage, Topic A was Libya.

Giuliani needs to be front & center talking about this every day when & wherever he can.
He should be a visible & auditory link between Sept 11, 2001 and Sept 11, 2012.

Not surprising, I don't think. That's why I posted that we'll have to hold his feet to the fire. If Romney wins the Presidency, and Fox News and conservative pundits don't keep the heat turned up high on the Benghazi betrayal, justice may never be served.

IIRC, Once Romney became entitled to and started receiving the same daily briefing as Obama he was legally precluded from discussing anything that is still classified even if it has been totally leaked to the media.

Greta had Jason Chaffetz on after the latest leaks and after the classified documents were found in Benghazi. She pressed him repeatedly to denounce Obama over the content of the docs but he refused and only discussed unclassified memos that had been leaked to the media. Same with McCain. Greta couldn't get him to discuss any classified information and I believe that includes any discussion of the existence of the CIA "annex" in Benghazi.

That is why Romney has been so quiet, IMO. Think of how hard he would be hammered if he broke his sworn oath to keep all classified docs secret! Holder might even try to arrest him! Surrogates who don't receive the briefings, like Giuliani, aren't subject to any such restrictions so last night and today he has been hammering Obama.
