Obama campaign ties Mitt Romney to Wall Street and corporate greed

Obama campaign ties Mitt Romney to Wall Street and corporate greed. The 2012 Obama reelect strategy is clear: get the MSM to anoint Romney as the “inevitable” GOP nominee, have the MSM sell OWS as a broad-based grass-roots movement, publicly identify himself with the OWS defecators’ anti-Wall St. populist rage and then capitalize on the manufactured anger by tying Romney to Wall St. via his hedge-fund roots. Well, Obama did say he was going to be the most transparent president ever.

  • Axelrod's strategy to try to link Romney with Wall Street and corporate greed has two major flaws that render it untenable:

    1.) Obama has raked in more money from Wall Street than any politician ib the last 20 years: The Daily Caller via Yahoo News:

    Obama raked in $15.8 million from Wall Street in 2008, and $3.8 million from Wall Street so far in this election cycle, while Romney has raked in $7.5 million this election cycle. That is $19.6 million for Obama versus $7.5 million for Romney.

    2..) Obama, when campaigning for the presidency, promised to not have any corporate lobbyists in his administration, but tossed that promise to the side as soon as he took office. So much for Obama fighting against "corporate greed."

  • Axelrod: "I don’t know that he’s getting into bed with anyone,” he said. “But this sentiment of frustration about what happened to our economy is not just limited to the kids and people on the street."
    Does anybody else think Axelrod is intimating that obama is a pedophile and a whoremonger?
