Former Gov. Mitt Romney, R-Mass., gave a synopsis of his campaign strategy and previewed a clever line of attack on President Obama and the Democratic Party during today’s Morning Jolt on MSNBC.
“My view [about the campaign] is you just express what you believe,” Romney said. Keep your head down, talk about the issues you care about [and] hope the other guys stumble.” In practice, that strategy meant Romney emphasized his beliefs and plans for the presidency, while trying to avoid conservative criticisms of his record. “I’m not sure what [they’re] referring to,” Romney said, when Joe Scarborough asked him about some conservative perceptions that “Romney is not one of us.”
