Romney campaign tells GOP govs to let them do the talking


Economic prospects improving in your state?   Shhh... don't tell the people of your state about it.  The Romney campaign is attempting to muzzle GOP governors so that they don't hear good economic news, and so that Romney can keep bashing the Obama administration (you know, the Presidential administration that saved the world from global depression, a place that the GOP Congress led by John Boehner and Eric Cantor want to take us back to?)

Romney campaign tells governors to downplay good economic news


"A Romney spokesperson didn’t deny the story, saying only that Romney frequently praises governors “for their ability to overcome the job-stifling policies of the Obama administration. That’s a new twist on the Romney camp’s argument that the recovery has only proceeded in spite of Obama’s policies, and only underscores the difficulty for Romney here — i.e., acknowledging the recovery where it’s happening while claiming Obama gets negative credit for it. It also highlights just how tightly Romney’s fortunes are dependent on us seeing the worst economic news possible for the next five months."

Well, don't forget that candidate Romney is such an adept liar that he may not even realize he's lying, or is lying because he feels that is necessary to fulfill his "calling" to be President of the United States.
