this would have the same affect against president obama that his aides message of calling mitt romney the etch-a-sketch candidate had on him. but it didn t work. it made romney look dumb. he s not a dumb man. but he said something that was clearly dumb. that s argumentive, cynthia. he seems so sophisticated and witty about his response. he says this is an ideological cliche from decades ago. as he put it, it is not the mid 1970s any more. this is the 21st century, mr. romney. but it does provide a window into how romney looks inside the geo politics. whether it is beefing up presence in the mediterranean, beefing up defense budget, armonment. the fact that he declared russia the geo-political problem that
the united states faces in the world is antiquated but not something hidden from romney s policy. he has articulate d stuff like this in the pas past. it is a much more complicated situation than it ever has been. russia is a much different country than in many decades. sounds like the old kind of talk here but his stay. deeply complicates the relationship should romney become president. here is house speaker ron boehner when asked about romney s remarks that russia is the number one geo-political foe. he didn t defend romney. take a look at how he cut him off here. he trimmed him. clear lit president is overseas. he is at a conference. and you know, while the president is overseas, i think it s appropriate that the that people not be critical. of him or of our country. is that a criticism, cynthia of mr. romney by saying i wouldn t criticize the president when he s overseas? you bet it is. i thought that what john boehner
