Remember how Karl Rove uses a strategy that attacks "opponents" for their strengths?
Well, here, from this morning's Washington Post, from the Election 2012 blog, we have this disarming headline: Romney predicts Obama will lie in debates.
Yep!
Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney, whom Democrats have charged is too loose with his facts, predicted that President Obama would lie in the October debates.
Said this to George Stephanopolous, in fact, on
Good Morning America.
I'm in sort of a hurry this morning, and this is going to be a post-and-run diary for which I apologize, but really, this speaks for itself. Consider this an open thread on lying and projection in presidential politics.
And one more thing:
Romney, who has held several days of intense debate preparation sessions over the past few weeks, told Stephanopoulos that he is tempted to recycle one of President Ronald Reagan’s lines, “There you go again.”
Um, plagiarizing from the Big Dog?
