Between yesterday's fantastic speech and this BuzzFeed report, is the Romney campaign finally immersing itself in the 2012 bare-knuckles brawl? Pow:
In speeches from Des Moines to Dallas, Romney has always been careful to hedge his tough digs at Obama with a civil nod toward the president's moral character: "He's a nice guy," the Republican has often said. "He just has no idea how the private economy works." But Tuesday's speech included no such hedge — and one campaign adviser said there's a reason for that. "[Romney] has said Obama's a nice fellow, he's just in over his head," the adviser said. "But I think the governor himself believes this latest round of attacks that have impugned his integrity and accused him of being a felon go so far beyond that pale that he's really disappointed. He believes it's time to vet the president. He really hasn't been vetted; McCain didn't do it." Indeed, facing what the candidate and his aides believe to be a series of surprisingly ruthless, unfounded, and unfair attacks from the Obama campaign on Romney's finances and business record, the Republican's campaign is now prepared to go eye for an eye in an intense, no-holds-barred act of political reprisal, said two Romney advisers who spoke on condition of anonymity.
In the next chapter of Boston's pushback — which began last week when they began labeling Obama a "liar" — very little will be off-limits, from the president's youthful drug habit, to his ties to disgraced Chicago politicians.

“Then let’s hear him mention Arpaio’s news conference yesterday.”
Not even Rush is touching that, and he’s not a politician.
I downloaded and listened to Mitt’s speech in PA yesterday. I think that finaly he has some fire in his belly.
If he REALLY wants to be president he’s got to kick some Chicago thug arse and from what I saw yesterday he just might be ready to do that.
Is he my first choice? Hell no. But I’ll vote for him.
A. B. O.
That’s pretty good!
Have you seen the new James O’Keefe video? It seems like a parody at first but he exposes the fraudulent stimulus package in FINE FORM!

This is well worth watching! I hope the GOP invites him to the convention for a video -a-thon!
IMO, Rush would be in a better position to do it than a politician. What’s he got to lose by discussing legitimate questions? And I believe Arpaio’s questions are legitimate.
I’ll believe it when I see it.
When I see information from this link
Jerrett knew Jones back in the day when he was rioting.
And this link too Mitt
Call Obama on his appointing UNREPENTANT terrorist Ayers (WISHES HE WOULD HAVE BOMBED MORE!) and his terrorist wife to be influencings millions of young kids with their messing with what the kids are learning.
Do some vetting of Jones, Ayres, Dorn, Jarrett, R Emanuel.
Throw some of that in his face if you really serious Romney.
With just info at those two links Romney could do some real damage.
But Obama is a nice guy, McCain thinks so too.

Correct. The crowd was just too big. No opportunity to pose questions. Not even an opportunity to shake hands if you zigged instead of zagged. I didn’t hear any crowd estimates other than from fellow Freeper Salena Zito (who also scribes for the Tribune Review). It was the same as mine: well over 1,000 in a fairly small venue.
-They seem legitimate to me too, but that was my point. If Rush Limbaugh is not talking about it (he’s “letting percolate” before he comments)nor anyone else except WND, why would Mitt? It is strange though.
Anyway, good week all in all. MI/VA are up for grabs, BHO down in popularity overall.
