They've been exposed making fraudulent claims, but they don't seem to give a damn.
Indeed, Romney aides are avoiding the most offensive lies in their ad, while also dodging the easy stuff -- asked about the stated claim that Romney "plan to help the auto industry," the campaign could offer nothing to support the claim.
Why should they care? They only have contempt for voters. And really, voters have shown that they deserve that contempt. Romney just repeats endlessly that he "knows" how the economy works and how to create 12 million jobs, fills in the blanks with tax cuts, increased defense spending, and reduced budgets, like, gee , no sweat, I'll do that, and -- then people say, gee I'll vote for that, gimme 5! Newspapers give him endorsements--repeating his empty Great Plan to Get America Working Again.
It is a farce. A huge ridiculous farce. I have seen student council president campaigns with as much detail as Mr. Romney offers. |
