Gov. Romney has posted a new op-ed on his Facebook page before it has even been posted on the New Hampshire Union Leader’s site. This is the first time I can remember Mitt making his Facebook page the only place to read one of his op-eds even if it will only be for a short time. When Mitt announced his exploratory committee with a tweet, Facebook post, and YouTube video, we noticed, and now this is another example that is indicating Gov. Romney’s campaign is going to be very savvy and comfortable with all of the new media that many other campaigns are struggling to utilize properly.
Anyway, the new op-ed is called Obama is Not Serious About America’s Financial Health, and if you listened to any of Gov. Romney’s radio interviews last week, you’re probably familiar with Mitt’s argument. If not, make sure to read it for yourself. I’ve lost count at how many times Gov. Romney has pointed out what should’ve been obvious to the current administration and to the majority of the media. Sometimes the issues seem to complicated for the media to tackle, but Mitt has a way of boiling down the issue to a simple and understandable argument that will make him a great President. It sure will be refreshing after 4 years of our current president who muddles up issues rather than clarifying them.
Since Gov. Romney is scheduled to be on Greta tonight, I bet some of the conversation will be on this op-ed, so don’t miss it.

UPDATE by Jayde – The Wall Street Journal has published an article on Gov Romney’s op-ed today:
The average voter probably doesn’t pay as much attention to the bond market as Mitt Romney does, but that didn’t stop the former Massachusetts governor from using a threatened downgrade of U.S. debt as a chance to criticize President Barack Obama.
In an op-ed in Monday’s Union Leader in Manchester, N.H., the former Massachusetts governor accused the president and his top advisers of downplaying the news last week that Standard & Poor’s had lowered its outlook for U.S. debt for the first time since it began those appraisals in 1941.

The FB post is a good thing. Mitt needs to reach out to bloggers, as well; and not just pro-Mitt bloggers. The impression of the guy in the suit needs to give way to the guy in jeans with rolled-up sleeves.

I don’t assign to much credibility to the IMF, but we’re going in that direction.
Great interview on Greta! A refreshing flow of ideas from a seasoned candidate, and businessman. Good luck on 2012. Listen to Mr. Romney articulate what and how the US needs to be competitive again, as he has the tools to get the job done.
He is bright, charismatic, well spoken, and highly regarded by most pundits. He will be the people’s choice to gain the nomination against Mr. Obama.

RE: Barack Obama is facing a financial emergency on a grander scale. Yet his approach has been to engage in one of the biggest peacetime spending binges in American history. With its failed stimulus package, its grandiose new social programs, its fervor for more taxes and government regulations, and its hostility toward business, the administration has made the debt problem worse, hindered economic recovery and needlessly cost American workers countless jobs.
Peacetime? Come on, Romney, I expect better from you than this. You and I both know that without the stimulus package, we would have fallen into a depression. You and I both know that jobs were cost because of Wall Street depravity. You need to get back on track with your message about who is hurting and why they are hurting, and you need to be brutually honest about it, instead of trotting out stale, old school, Republican talking points. Where’s the integrity that you had been showing, up until now?

Why don’t you look at the corrected op-ed http://mittromneycentral.com/op-eds/042511-obama-isnt-serious-about-americas-financial-health/
Mitt obviously meant since world war II. None of our wars since then have been as big of a contributor of our debt. That’s what Mitt was talking about and it has been corrected.
Ok.
