Romney to Obama: ‘Take your campaign of division and anger and hate back to Chicago’
CHILLICOTHE, Ohio—Mitt Romney offered his strongest criticism yet of President Barack Obama's campaign tactics, accusing his Democratic opponent of resorting to "diversions and distractions" and "defaming others" in order to win re-election this November.
Speaking on the steps of a courthouse here on the final stop of his four-state bus tour, Romney lashed out at Obama, describing him as "intellectually exhausted, out of ideas and out of energy." As a result, Romney said, Obama and his allies are running a campaign based on personal attacks rather than "fresh ideas."
While he didn't mention him by name, Romney made reference to a Vice President Joe Biden's attack on his fiscal policies in Virginia speech Tuesday when he said Romney would "put you back in chains" if elected.
