Romney’s Speech

The anti-Obama parts of Romney’s stump speech still stink.  The anti-Gingrich parts are somewhat better, but not focused enough.  The line isn’t that Gingrich is anti-free enterprise.  The line is that he is a crony capitalist and Romney is running against Solyndra/Freddie Mac crony capitalist, connected, Washington insiders.  I don’t especially buy it coming from Romney, but it should do for the primaries given the competition.
