Mitt Romney said Thursday that he would replace Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, dismissing the advice of a top adviser

The "top advisor" should be replaced.

This Guy would be better.

So would these guys...

” Mitt Romney said Thursday that he would replace Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, dismissing the advice of a top adviser “

Who the heck are his advisors? This one sounds like the loser, Karl Rove.

Better yet he should cut the pseudo public / private tie with the fed altogether. Make them one or the other.

I think Ron Paul would rather be chairman of the Federal Reserve than President; and I kind of like that idea.

Romney should clean ALL of the RATs out of Washington. Not to do so is a recipe for disaster.

Yap, Bernanke is a college professor who never had a real job working for a real company which survives only if it makes a profit. This is an excellent decision by Romney, but will he follow up on that or flip-flop?

dismissing the advice of a top adviser

Fire him, NOW!

You can never trust his judgement on anything if he fails this badly on Bernanke.

[central_va]

Burn-Yankee must go.

[randog]

Well...Mitt can kiss the Bernanke vote goodbye....;^)

[GeorgeWashingtonsGhost]

How about Arthur Laffer?

This Guy would be better.

Oh yeah, an aide to a Carter-era Secretary of Treasury... what an improvement! /s

Fischer is a lifelong RAT. Nuff said.

[Lucky9teen]

Well, if he’s not going to end it (and I’m still on the fence myself on whether that would be a good idea or not)....it would be good for Bernanke to go. Preferably in handcuffs, but good that Mitt would send him packing.

Hopefully on that note, Mitt will also put in someone who will change things for the better.

[nicmarlo]

Applause. Bernanke should also be charged with felonious theft.

Now, if we could hear what Romney would do with all the Czars.

I not yet heard anything about them.

[familyop]

Any replacement will be unable to interrupt the continuation of the fun of default, bond collapse, repudiation, currency adjustment ahead. Have fun. Enjoy the slide. Watch the local foreclosures, layoffs and general depositions like a great picture show.

Reinhart has been shamelessly campaigning for the slot on all the biz networks...kicking ole Ben to the curb all day long.
