Why The Romney Campaign Stopped Talking About Libya

leave a comment »

From BuzzFeed.com:

In the post-debate spin room Tuesday night, Romney campaign aides and surrogates tried to make up for a botched exchange on the Libya attacks by promising to aggressively prosecute President Obama’s handling of the situation — but 36 hours later, no such prosecution has materialized.

Instead, Mitt Romney spent the next day on the stump criticizing the president for his lack of a second-term agenda, and conspicuously avoiding the Libya issue.

Romney’s stopped talking about foreign policy mainly because he and The Chosen One have only minor quibbles about the details: in the main, they’re both for the same thing (and something unpopular with the public): endless war.
