Time for Obama team to bring it back to the economy


Shut down Romney's whining.

Here is what the Obama administration has done to add jobs (Auto industry, shrink govt, show jobs numbers in comparison to Reagan, fair pay for women, energy policy creating green jobs etc).

What's Romney's plan? Make money for investors by sending jobs overseas. Revamping the BUSH policies - remember those?

Proven Job growth VS. BUSH economic policies on steroids.

Every revelation about W Mitt Romney's business past is a revelation about every vulture capitalist and Wall Street gambler out there.

It's a natural feed in to it. It'll come.

He does this in every speech but I too want to hear more. Tell people specifics about his own plan and keep hammering the fact that Republicans have been obstructing his plan for jobs and just about everything he's tried to do. Obama has very specific proposals for job growth. Romney does not so they should highlight this contrast.

Much better than the usual nebulous babble that we get on the subject.

6. Not only is Bain about the economy , but so are Romney's tax returns -

when people find out that Romney paid little or nothing while we went into deficit and that he is typical of his class, it will put the Bush tax cuts front and center.
