Poor Mitt Romney can’t get a break. We always knew he was fairly smart (well not a complete imbecile). He finally admitted that spending cuts as every intelligent economist has said will hurt the economy. It will kill economic growth. In fact it is time for the President & liberal activist to segway into the following statement. “Mitt Romney’s own words stating that spending cuts hurt the economy and as such the middle class implies a Republican intent to collapse the economy since they are calling solely for spending cuts.
