Even Romney Agrees That Obama Is Turning The Economy Around?
“It is true that Mitt Romney is the default nominee,” Maddow admitted,
but noted that, while “yesterday [Thursday] was a disastrous day for
Mitt Romney, today was worse,” because he actually admitted, in an
interview with Laura Ingraham, that President Obama had improved the
economy. His entire claim to being worthy of the nomination in stump
speeches, Maddow noted, was that President Obama didn’t start the
problem, but he made it worse. “The economy had essentially been thrown
out a 30-story building and was lying dead on the ground when Obama
assumed the presidency,” Maddow argued, and the “state of Mitt Romney’s
core argument” was him admitting that things are somewhat better, while
questions circulate about his time at Bain Capital. To chime in the
disastrous admission, Maddow simply played the clip over photos of
Romney: “Even Mitt Romney agrees that President Obama is turning the
economy and things are getting better… so vote for Mitt Romney despite
that?” Maddow noted. The campaign ad writes itself.
“Mitt Romney winning in New Hampshire was a foregone conclusion,”
Maddow explained, because “the guy from Massachusetts always wins New
Hampshire.” The more damning evidence against Romney was not that he
one, but the only two exceptions to the “guy from Massachusetts always
wins” rule: Ted Kennedy losing to President Carter in 1980, and… Mitt Romney losing to Sen. John McCain in 2008. Kennedy had the incumbency excuse. What was Romney’s?
