Via POLITICO's Juana Summers on the Mitt Romney bus tour, making its way through Pennsylvania:
"I'm concerned that over the last three and a half years, we've had a president who may have been well-meaning, but didn't know what it takes to help enterprises grow and thrive," Romney told hundreds of supporters sandwiched into Weatherly Casting & Manufacturing Company Saturday morning. "He upon becoming governor ? excuse me, president , last time ? - governor might have been a better job for him to have started with."
The crowd applauded fervently as Romney continued to cast Obama as a novice without the ability to understand, or correct, the country's problems.
"I say that because I actually think you learn from experience . I think it helps to have been in business before you actually start to run something in government. And then after you've done something in government, it helps to start perhaps a little lower level before you become president."
Obama, of course, recently slipped himself and called Romney "George," a k a his dad. And ironically, as Dan Amira noted earlier this week, Obama has had a shift in the use of the honorific when he uses Romney's name.
