Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker said that Mitt Romney can still win the election but he needs to put more passion into his vision for the country, rather than focusing exclusively on what President Obama has done wrong, in an interview on “Fox News Sunday.” Walker says he has seen the passionate Mitt Romney before, but not enough.

“I think you gotta get off the heels and you gotta get out and charge forward. I think Americans want a fighter,” Walker said, reiterating previous comments he has made about the campaign. “Certainly in part it is a referendum on this president, there’s no doubt about it. But I think for most Americans, particularly in my state where there’s an awful lot of swing independent voters, they want to know more than what’s wrong with this president.”

“I want to see fire in the belly,” Walker said. ” I want to see him lit up and ready to go.”
