Romney fails to elaborate on his 20% tax cut in awkward speech setting where he let slip another gaffe about his wealth
Republican frontrunner Mitt Romney's much-heralded economic speech flopped Friday, overshadowed by a gaffe over luxury Cadillacs and his choice of an over-ambitious venue, the Detroit Lions' football field.
Romney opened himself up to derision for choosing a 70,000-seat stadium which attracted just over 1,000 people, many of them school children bussed in to help fill out the crowd, tucked into a corner of the astro-turf pitch.
The small crowd underlined again his inability to draw large numbers of supporters and to excite the conservative base.
The speech too turned out to be a flop. Having been hyped by his campaign staff all week, Romney had little new to say, particulary about how he planned to pay for the 20% tax cuts he announced earlier in the week.

ReplyDelete10:29am,
ReplyDeleteThe republicans running for the president of the u. s. all have lied to the pepole. Have flip flop in front of the people. And, supported the 1% all the way to the bank. Ask yourself, which one of thses candidate have actually stood up for the elders, the middle and poor working class, our kids, our unemployed and our veterans. Which one of these rich white fork tongue speaking male really and truly care about the average 99% American citizen.
11:11 you are brain dead. Obama doesn't care about your 99 either. Just look at the donors list for the democratic party. Wake up the man is the only communist running in this election.
ReplyDeleteIf one of the republican candidates gets into office they are going to pull the rug out from under the elderly the children and middle and poor working class families. None of them know what its like to live in the real world. If this happens we will become like many third world countries. The very rich and the very poor with nothing in between. All you have to do is look at Haiti to see this doesn't work except for the wealthy folk. I don't think this is what this country is built on.
