Eric Fehrnstrom, one of Mitt Romney’s senior advisers, offered the following Perry reaction to The Telegraph’s Toby Harnden:
“It reminds me of what Graham Greene said about Haiti under Papa Doc, ‘There’s nothing I could say that could darken that moment’. The nominee of our party is going to have to have three high-profile debates with President Obama.
Governor Romney is going to be prepared to take on that challenge. And to make the case for why Obama’s economic policies have failed.”
