"Mitt on the Road: A Week in New Hampshire"

2:13 web video from Aug. 19, 2011.
New Hampshire State Senate Majority Leader Jeb Bradley: “So it’s an honor and a pleasure to be able to introduce my friend and our next President, Governor Mitt Romney.”
Mitt Romney (Litchfield, NH): “We’ve now had a president in office for some two and a half years. … We have unemployment which is higher than during the Jimmy Carter years. We have more people out of work than during the Jimmy Carter years. There are twenty-five million Americans who are out of work or who have stopped looking for work or who are in part-time jobs that need full-time work. Twenty-five million Americans. And that in my view is a presidency that has not succeeded in doing the number one job the president was elected to do which is to get this economy going again.”
Mitt
Romney (Berlin, NH): “The
president’s policies just didn’t get this economy turned around fast
enough for a lot of people like those that were furloughed here at
Isaacson Steel. We need to have people in the White House who
understand how the economy works and who can
help get America working again for the American people. I’ve spent my
life in the private sector. I understand how the economy works and I’m
going to bring that expertise to get this economy going again.”
Mitt Romney (Manchester, NH):
“Businesses
are
comprised of people. I’m talking about repair shops, and
gas stations, and beauty salons, and restaurants. I’m talking about
Apple computer, Facebook and Microsoft. I’m talking about businesses
that employ people. It’s really astonishing to me that the Obama folks
would try and
argue that businesses aren’t people. What do they think they are?
Little men from Mars? That when they tax business, they tax people. I
want this to be the most attractive place in the world for small
business, new business, growing businesses. And
what the president has done is put in place the most anti-business,
anti-investment, anti-jobs agenda we’ve seen in generations. … If we’re
led by people who will tell us the truth and live with integrity and
who actually know how to lead, then America will remain as it’s always
been: the hope of the Earth. And I ask for your help in doing just
that.”
Notes: The video includes scenes from Romney's
recent trip to NH; at the end are a series of MCU photos of smiling
supporters, some holding up paper signs.
