Romney Goes on Offense Saying Obama Denigrates Business Success
This article is for subscribers only.
Presumed Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney, pressing to quiet debate over his wealth and business practices, is charging President Barack Obama with stressing his own re-election over job creation and being hostile to economic success.
Romney has sharpened his attacks on Obama this week in an effort to refocus the race on the president’s record, portraying him as disconnected from the concerns of ordinary Americans and inept at creating jobs. He told voters at a town hall meeting in the swing of state Ohio yesterday that, while Obama has held 100 fundraisers in the past six months, he hasn’t convened his jobs council even once.
