GOVERNOR ROMNEY ON LAST NIGHT'S DEMOCRATIC DEBATE
Boston, MA – Today, Governor Mitt Romney issued the following statement regarding last night's Democratic presidential debate:
"While the men and women of our military are serving and sacrificing for their country in Iraq, the leading Democratic presidential candidates have consistently called for a retreat. Yet, when asked last night if they could outline a path forward in Iraq under their leadership, Senators Clinton, Obama and Edwards fell silent. Clearly, the Democrats place a higher premium on cheap and shallow political attacks that appeal to the fringe element of their party than they do on outlining a plan. Instead of troop withdrawals, we need to be talking about how we achieve victory in Iraq. Changing Washington requires Democrats who are willing to put aside the partisanship and work toward solutions on our most pressing challenges."
