Romney Shifts Message Because His Old Message Was Working So Well

YIKES!!!!

WASHINGTON — Republican Mitt Romney will spend the coming weeks trying to tell voters how he plans to govern the country, shifting his strategy in recognition of demand from voters that the GOP nominee outline his vision for the future instead of just criticizing Democratic President Barack Obama.

Former Republican National Committee Chairman Ed Gillespie outlined the new tack in a conference call with reporters Monday, saying voters are "eager" to hear more about Romney's specific policy proposals.

Voters "know that he has a plan, which is a good thing, but we also know that they'd like to know a little bit more of the specifics, and we're going to meet the demands," Gillespie said.

With just 50 days until the election, Romney launched a new round of TV ads and planned a renewed focus on policy in speeches and campaign appearances. The new emphasis follows increasingly vocal criticism from Republicans who have suggested their nominee is running a timid and vague campaign. The push, aimed at easing those fears, comes as key Romney aides have also been tasked with leading a behind-the-scenes effort to calm dissention in the ranks and reassure nervous donors and consultants about the state of the campaign.

Still, campaign aides were unable to identify any new policy proposals that would be included in the push. Romney has been advocating a five-point economic plan since returning from a trip to Europe in July. Gillespie said Romney would re-emphasize plans to encourage energy independence by renewing the Keystone XL pipeline, cut the deficit by limiting the growth of government programs and lower taxes across the board without shifting more of the tax burden to the middle class. But Gillespie, pressed for details, could not identify loopholes Romney's tax plan might close to keep that tax promise or point to any government departments that might be cut to reduce deficit spending.

"We're not rolling out new policies ... so much as we are making sure people understand when we say we can do these things, here's how we're going to get them done and these are the specifics," said Gillespie, who joined Romney's team late in the primary election season in a top strategy and messaging role that he continues to hold.

Romney's 5 Point Business Plan for America.

It is a page that millions of Americans will recognize... because it comes right out of the "corporate leverage buyout" playbook that has put millions out of work.


1. Harvest profit centers and sell them off = Privatize the postal service, privatize education, privatize all healthcare, privatize the military supply chain… already sold to Halliburton and companies like the renamed Blackwater by Bush.

2. Liquidate Assets = Sell off federal lands and their oil and mineral rights.

3. Reduce payroll by laying off personnel and off-shoring manufacturing jobs to cheap overseas labor markets = shrink government by getting rid of public employees (teachers,firemen, policemen, postal workers,FDA inspectors and the list goes on!)

4. Get rid of pension plans to reduce overhead = Get rid of medicare, medicaid and social security

5. Provide dividends to key investors for continued support = massive tax cuts to the .0001%ers funding his campaign and buying congress through lobbyist.

Does any of this sound familiar to you... it does to me when I take the 10,000 foot up vantage point on what the Romney campaign is selling... his business experience.

 

Yup...his new message, belittling almost half of the population at the rich dude's house ought to do wonders for him too. What a turd that dope is.

 

No one listens to you. Within the confines of our little forum here, you're what is known as the Village Idiot. Before you get your Quasimodo-like, potato-sack-panties in a bunch, I mean no disrespect by saying that. It's just that you're the Village Idiot.

 

Stone cold right wing lemmings don't bother me like they used to. They are all quite typical, predictable and march to the same drummer, so, no offense taken. Rich, egotistical, self important liberal bashers are no different.

I mean no disrespect here either but, you're just a lemming right winger, with the same old angry message of "we hate" those that don't accept our philosophy of self importance.

 

LOL! That all sounds about right! Corporate outsourcing elitist all the way! Kudos!
