As Mitt Romney closes in on the Republican nomination, the Republican National Committee is stepping up their efforts to inoculate the eventual nominee from the coming onslaught of negative attacks from President Obama.
This morning the RNC launched a new website, Ottack2012, that will be devoted to chronicling what even neutral observers predict will be a historically negative reelection campaign run by Obama. The new website includes this quote from The Washington Post’s Ruth Marcus:
RNC Chairman Reince Priebus adds: “President Obama doesn’t have a record to run on so he will tear his Republican opponent down at every opportunity to try to cover up his failed leadership on jobs. But, the American people will see through this typical politician’s attacks for what they are—desperate acts to protect his own job.”
