Mitt Romney Campaign Ad

America today is at a crossroads. Our debt and deficit have exploded. Government Spending has gone through the roof. The economy is slowing down. America is still reliant on other countries to satisfy its energy needs. Our immigration system is broken. We need change. If elected, Mitt Romney will:

1. Balance the Budget
2. Work towards achieving energy independence for the United States
3. Pass comprehensive immigration reform
4. End the gridlock in congress by working on both sides of the aisle

America needs change. Mitt Romney has spent his career in business, and was Governor of Massachusetts, one of the bluest states in the nation, for four years. He knows how to turn round a business, how to make deals and get things done. Vote Romney, for a Stronger America

I am Mitt Romney, and I approve this message

[MrMittens]

Mitt Romney would gladly accept the invitation to Senator Clinton's debate on Iraq.

Excerpt from Gingrich's Speech in October 27:

“Look, I'm on this campaign because of a very simple reason: I'm a conservative. America needs real conservative leadership during these troubled times, and I know I can lead this country. When you listen to the other candidates you see three main issues: You got social issues, economical reform and the Iraq War. However, my fellow republican candidates seem to focus too much on the issues, lacking a general vision for America. You need leadership and a plan to succeed, Ronald Reagan had both, and so do I! (Applause)

You all know that I am a leader because of my term as Speaker of the House, and you also know that I am an ideas man: America needs my ideas! Help me lead this country, you can do it! We need leadership from this new century right now!"

Newt Gingrich would like to attend Senator Clinton's debate on Iraq, calling it a great way to discuss the real issues of the campaign. Also, the "Leadership" ad is now running in Florida and Nevada.

You can't just make up your own boosts.

That'd be like me saying Hillary received a boost in polls after she received the endorsement of Osama bin Laden.
