Marc: The Water’s Edge
Marc Johnson of The Johnson report sez Republican Mitt Romney would have been wise to heed the advice of Arthur Vandenberg, a Republican U.S. senator from Michigan who helped Harry Truman pass the Marshall
Plan and believed “Politics stop at the water’s edge.” More from Marc: “Romney has spent most of today
cleaning up after a statement
he issued too quickly and without all the facts as the awful events in Libya were spinning out of control late yesterday. His midnight statement condemning the Obama Administration is
being widely regarded as an amazing piece of amateur hour time
for someone who hopes to be Commander-in-Chief. Ronald Reagan’s gifted speechwriter
Peggy Noonan said Romney wasn’t doing himself any favors
with his hair trigger attack.”
