MomaMitt attacks Obama, Clinton

MARSHALLTOWN, Iowa — Republican Mitt Romney today jumped into the fracas between Senators Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama, comparing Mr. Obama to Neville Chamberlain, the British leader known for his policy of appeasement toward Nazi Germany. He also denounced Senator Clinton’s domestic policy positions.

On the Clinton-Obama duel, Mr. Obama and Mrs. Clinton have issued caustic criticisms of the other’s differing responses during Monday night’s Democratic debate on the question of whether they’d be willing to meet with leaders of rogue nations. While Mr. Obama said he would be willing, Mrs. Clinton essentially said she wouldn’t without lower-level vetting to avoid propaganda issues. Afterward, Senator Clinton called Mr. Obama’s remarks “irresponsible and frankly naïve,” while Mr. Obama fired back yesterday, using the same terms to characterize her war vote in 2002.

Weighing in today during the first of a series of “Ask Mitt Anything” forums in Iowa, Mr. Romney declared Mrs. Clinton’s answer to be the right one. Diverging from his usual stump speech, he spent the first 10 minutes of his remarks attacking the Democratic presidential hopefuls and singling out Mr. Obama for excoriation.

Mr. Romney told his audience of about a hundred people that Mr. Obama “told us his agenda for the people he’d be visiting his first year: Ahmadinejad, Chavez; he’d be going to Syria, meeting with the president of Syria,” referring to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the president of Iran, and Hugo Chavez, the leader of Venezuela.

2. "Ask Mitt Anything"? I've got a question.
Would you have anything to say to your high school sophomore daughter if she were dating a sophomore/junior in college? I ask this because Mitt started dating his wife when she was on 15 and he was 19. For some reason Mitt gets the holier than thou status as to there could never have been any sex with an underage girl. Meanwhile a young male is still in prison in Georgia for having consensual sex when he was 17 and the girl was 15. I also think the holier than thou crowd he is courting would have a problem with such an age gap between a 15 year old girl and 19 year old boy. Myself? I'd have a problem with my 19 year old son dating a 15 year old.
