Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad (R) fired away on Fox News Sunday at President Obama over his tough attacks on Mitt Romney’s record at Bain Capital.

“Well, it’s pretty pathetic when the president of the United States — instead of running on his record, as Ronald Reagan did with good morning in America — is spending his time attacking other people,” Branstad said. “Attacking Romney, attacking the entrepreneurs and the businesses that we need to have the guts to invest and create jobs and grow our economy.”

“It’s the blame game. And that’s the wrong thing for the president of the United States.”
