With Bush's low approval ratings, this is not something you hear very often from the other candidates.

Romney praises Bush, bashes Washington

Romney says one thing, does another.

Repeatedly.

A point goes in Mitt’s column for his articulation of how President Bush has kept this nation safe for 6 years and how war never goes smoothly or without mistakes (pp).

Now tell me, al Reuters, just WHY is the the POTUS’s fault that auto manufacturing jobs are in the toilet in Michigan? No anti-Bush bias there, no-siree.

Pardon for the second post, but I neglected to address the other aspect of the headline.

At campaign rallies, Romney presents himself as an outsider who would fix a "fundamentally broken" Washington. Both Democrats and Republicans, he often says, are to blame

Campaign rhetoric, of course. If Mitt comes out and states he's going to sic the Justice Dept on the corruption of the RATS and empower most of the republicans (somehow!) to shake the yellow streaks off their backs and become leaders, then I'll really start taking a hard look at Mitt.

But without specifics, this is obviously a shallow statement created for sound-bytes and voter stroking. Not that Mitt is the only one to do this, of course.

WIN, MITT, WIN!
