Speaker John Boehner To Visit Coralville, Iowa Victory Office On Wednesday, October 17, 2012

SPEAKER JOHN BOEHNER TO VISIT CORALVILLE VICTORY OFFICE

Iowa City – On Wednesday, Speaker of the House John Boehner will visit our Coralville Victory Office to rally supporters of Governor Romney and deliver remarks on the clear choice on debt and deficits confronting our nation. President Obama has racked up more than $5.5 trillion in debt over the past four years, putting our national debt above $16 trillion. He broke his promise to cut the deficit in half by the end of his first term, instead presiding over four straight trillion-dollar deficits. Getting our fiscal house in order is more than an economic imperative – it’s a moral imperative.

Event: Speaker John Boehner in Coralville

Laconia Citizen (NH) Endorses Mitt Romney For President

LACONIA, NH CITIZEN ENDORSES ROMNEY: “THE TIME FOR CHANGE IS NOW”

“Obama's record speaks for itself. Take a look around. Are we better off than we were four years ago? No. … It's beyond time for a change. We endorse Mitt Romney for President of the United States.” – Laconia Citizen (NH)

The Time For Change Is Now
Laconia Citizen (NH)
Editorial
October 16, 2012

http://www.citizen.com

We're not the country we used to be and, if we don't change the course in November, we may never be again.
…

Vice President Joe Biden was absolutely correct when he told a Charlotte, N.C. audience “the middle class has been buried for the last four years.” Despite two failed stimulus packages President Obama continues to blame the sour economy on the “mess” he inherited four years ago.
…

Mitt Romney brings a welcome change. He understands it's the private sector that creates jobs and not the government. He understands the presidency is about leadership and philosophy. He's succeeded in both the private and public sector — not to say he's perfect — but not worthy of political ads that attack him for what he might do either.

Obama's record speaks for itself. Take a look around. Are we better off than we were four years ago? No.
…

It's beyond time for a change. We endorse Mitt Romney for President of the United States.

Boston, MA – Mitt Romney today announced the support of businessman and former presidential candidate Ross Perot.

At stake is nothing less than our position in the world, our standard of living at home, and our constitutional freedoms. That is why I am endorsing Mitt Romney in his quest for the presidency. We can’t afford four more years in which national debt mushrooms out of control, our government grows, and our military is weakened. Mitt has the background, experience, intelligence, and integrity to turn things around. He has my absolute support.”

Background On Ross Perot:

Ross Perot Is A Businessman And Former Presidential Candidate. Perot is a 1953 graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy, where he was president of his class. He later founded Electronic Data Systems and Perot Systems. Perot ran for President of the United States in 1992 and 1996. He and his wife Margot have five children.
