Mark B. Lowe @ Race 4 2012:
(CNN) – Mitt Romney will deliver a significant speech on the economy Friday, according to a top campaign aide, when just 11 days remain in the presidential race.
His speech will be delivered in Ames, Iowa, and is aimed at “reinforcing the big choice in November,” a top campaign adviser told CNN.

Romney is once again making a point of talking about serious things while Obama continues to talk about Binders, Big Bird, and Bayonets.
To be fair, Obama did try to talk about serious things. Just yesterday, he finally released his second term agenda. Remember that? If you’ve forgotten already, don’t be surprised. So has everyone else. The agenda turned out to be little more than a rehash of his first term’s agenda and was nearly universally panned by almost everyone on both the left and the right.
I wonder if Romney will mention this: Conservative Spending Hypocrisy: Frozen Pay for Federal Workers, Exorbitant Pay for Contractors
The topic seems relevant, in light of Romney’s stated intention to increase DoD spending by arbitrarily boosting it to 4 percent of the GDP, with no request for that level of increase from the Pentagon and no details about what the additional money–estimated to run near to $2 Trillion over 10 years–is for.
There they go again, meddling with the workings of the free market . . .

YOU ARE AGAIN SWIMMING IN THE GUTTER MUD,
SLICK IS IN IT? THAT’S WHERE YOU LOVE TO BE,
THIS IS WHAT HAS BEEN DONE ON OBAMA ‘S WATCH, THE DEMOCRATS WHERE BENEFITING FROM IT AND COMFORTABLE TO LET IT GO UNTIL
THE CONSERVATIVES MADE IT PUBLIC, HOW OUTRAGEOUS THE FEDERAL EMPLOYEES TAKE FROM THE PEOPLE’S MONEY, AND HOW WILLING THE GOVERNMENT IS TO CUT THE MILITARY ANY WAY THEY CAN,
LET’S NOTE THE CONTRACTOR IN THE WARZONE WORK IN A FAR MORE DANGEROUS CLIMATE
AND THREAT FROM THE ENEMIES THAN THE FEDERAL EMPLOYEES IN THEIR COZY OFFICE,
REWARD VALOR WHERE IT IS, AS OPPOSE TO OTHER PROTECTED IN THEIR FEDERAL COCOON,
SOME ARE NOT EVEN NEEDED, THEY ARE ONLY AS THE PLANTS ON FEDERALS GROUNDS,
AND TOO MANY LIVING ON THE PEOPLE’S POCKETS,
WHAT A WASTE AND WHAT A CRIME TO STEEL FROM THE PEOPLE, TO NURTUR THE FEDERAL UNIONIZE EMPLOYEES, WHEN THEY CANNOT FIND JOBS FOR THE AMERICANS OUTSIDE IN AMERICA WITHOUT ANY PROTECTION,
AMERICA TAKE NOTE, AND GET THE DIRT OUT, CLEAN THE DECK ONCE AND FOR ALL OF THOSE
FEEDING ON YOUR MONEY WITHOUT GIVING NOTHING
THEY ARE NOT LOOKING FOR YOU THE PEOPLE, THEY ARE HAVING FUN AND PARTIES ON YOUR POCKET,
MITT IS DEDICATED TO HELP AMERICA, HOW MUCH MORE DIFFERENT IT WILL BE
WITHOUT THOSE CROOKS MAKING YOU POORER, AND WANT MORE,
WAKE UP AMERICA YOU HAVE ONE CHANCE ONLY, IF YOU BLOW IT
YOU WILL LIVE WITH THE CONSEQUENSES AND CANNOT PLAY IGNORANT THIS TIME
IT’S NOT A MATTER OF COLOR THIS TIME, IT’S A MATTER OF HONOR FOR YOUR COUNTRY,
