NASHUA, N.H. As he campaigns here among die-hard Republicans, Mitt Romney is taking aim at the top tier of Democratic presidential candidates chiefly Senator Clinton, accusing her of advocating an economic policy in line with Karl Marx.
Speaking yesterday to the Nashua Republican City Committee, the former Massachusetts governor criticized the three leading Democratic contenders Mrs. Clinton, Senator Obama of Illinois, and a former senator of North Carolina, John Edwards on a number of domestic and international issues. He also contrasted his background as a former governor and businessman with that of his Democratic rivals. The group that Mr. Romney addressed was comprised of local Republicans backing a host of different presidential candidates. He was the only one to speak in person to the group of fiscal and social conservatives. The group displayed a box carrying an audio version of Lou Cannon's biography of Ronald Reagan in connection with a fund-raiser.
"None of them has ever managed a private enterprise or lead a state, and their solutions would take us in exactly the wrong direction," Mr. Romney said. "Their solutions are Big Brother, big taxes, and big government, and that is not the right answer for America." Later, he told The New York Sun that "in the case of the three Democratic front-runners, none of them has managed a corner store, let alone a state or a city or an enterprise of the nature of the United States."

. . . but Hillary's still a Marxist, no matter how they spell it. Good for Romney for calling her on it.
Romney just went up a notch in my book.
Excellent!
Good of Mitt to be speaking truth to commies.
The she-beast is easy pickins’... Lets see how he harpoons the barok Husein obama before he goes up a notch in my book.
Has Romney been talking like this all the time? Maybe the press is finally quoting him.
"Given how often Romney flip-flops, tomorrow he will be touting his membership in the Communist Party."
LED's........
Lead........
How's this:
A quite fine example of folk art and you have a national treasure, A National Treasure...
Hi DWgator, lifelong gvlle and gator fan here.
I agree, it’s about time for some real straight talk.
That’s because it is.
Here’s the joke that goes with that sign if you haven’t heard it already.
Chelsea was sent to Iraq to interview soldiers. She asked one soldier what he feared the most. His response was Osama, Obama and yo Mama!
It’s a cute joke.
Gotta hand it to him. At least he is calling her out publicly.
Just went up another notch. If he keeps this up he just might steal my vote from Fred Thompson.
I think that response is more incriminating of Hillary than it is funny.
Me too. I think their response is pretty weak and lacking any real intellect or originality. The whole flip-flop thing is stale and old. Seems like a bunch of high school kids that got caught red-handed. Hillary can’t even deny her own slide toward Marxism, and her only retort is to accuse Mitt of becoming a Communist one day too? What? He’s got them all on the ropes!
