At a time when Republicans desperately are searching for a unifying leader and message, and Democrats add to their ranks in Congress, the former Massachusetts governor and 2008 presidential candidate is taking a no-excuses attitude toward his party.
Former presidential candidate Mitt Romney called on Republicans to "stand up" to President Obama and his policies on the economy, health care and energy, in a wide-ranging interview with FOX News.
At a time when Republicans desperately are searching for a unifying leader and message, and Democrats add to their ranks in Congress, the former Massachusetts governor and 2008 presidential candidate took a no-excuses attitude toward his party.
"I think Republicans have to stand up and make it very, very clear that we run the risk as a nation of having the entire world lose confidence in the currency of the United States and that would lead to something worse than a recession -- that would lead to an extraordinary slowdown globally that would hurt us more than any other," Romney told FOX News Tuesday evening.

Well it’s about damned time someone raised their voice. Romney is noticing that Inhofe is kicking his butt in looking tough and protecting the Constitution against our Communist leader. Keep going....you have some catching up to do. I want to hear some yelling!

Yea, too bad he has to trash every other conservative to do it.

Didn’t Romney enact similar policies as governor of Massachusettes?

Duplicate.
Romney Urges. But it might be fun to repeat it exactly like the previous one.

It’s well past time to “speak truth to power” and to “question authority.” As my Berkeley neighbors have long advocated...

I have been saying republicans need to put differences aside and stand together in 2012 but .... Romney in 2012 is like Mccain in 2008. A dead ticket on arrival.
We need to put our differences aside and nominate a winner.

"According to a recent Pew poll, among Republicans Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin -- despite the unceasing drama surrounding her and her family -- is the GOP's most popular leader, with a 73 percent approval rating. Romney had 57 percent.
