The New York Times: Reports that Governor Romney attacked the foreign policy of the Obama Administration today, the Governor as the article notes, " ..criticized the president as lacking a comprehensive counterterrorism policy and failing to capitalize on the Arab Spring uprisings. ".
Lets Get Real:
As noted in previous blog post the major weakness for the Oval is the murder of the US Ambassador in Libya, the stonewalling about calling the attack on the US Consulate a terrorists attack does have a smell of a cover up. The attack came on 9/11, a major theme of the Democratic Convention was that the Oval has killed OBL and that Al Qaeda was a spent force, the murders in Libya spoiled that message. Thus the murders were blamed on anti Islamic tape. This cover did not last, it seems that the Oval knew early that it was a terrorists attack. Also the lack of security at the Consulate has become a major issue, why was there not enough security even after a request by the Ambassador. This cover up has not reached the mind of the US voter, the success for the drones in Afghanistan and Pakistan has reached the general public, also the removal of troops from Iraq and the planned withdraw of US troops from Afghanistan in 2014. The US voter is tired of constant WARS, thus no great appeal for another War, in this case with Iran. Thus it can be argued that Oval is following the wishes of the voter, thus a 2nd term.
