At a speech in New Hampshire Tuesday night, Mitt Romney is scheduled to declare victory in the primaries and set about kicking off a general election campaign focused on economic issues.
From the prepared remarks, sent to reporters by the Romney campaign:
Is it easier to make ends meet? Is it easier to sell your home or buy a new one? Have you saved what you needed for retirement? Are you making more in your job? Do you have a better chance to get a better job? Do you pay less at the pump?
If the answer were “yes” to those questions, then President Obama would be running for re-election based on his achievements…and rightly so. But because he has failed, he will run a campaign of diversions, distractions, and distortions. That kind of campaign may have worked at another place and in a different time. But not here and not now. It’s still about the economy …and we’re not stupid.
