This doesn’t sound to good for the Mitt Romney campaign:
Mitt Romney is canceling a planned campaign stop Monday in Orlando after a whirlwind weekend in which the presumptive Republican nominee introduced Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) as his running mate.
According to the Orlando Sentinel, the campaign said late Sunday that the presidential hopeful was “too exhausted to make the trip” after crisscrossing Virginia, North Carolina and Wisconsin over the weekend.
“We’ve been planning this bus tour for a while and had to adjust for stuff going on,” Jeff Bechdel, Florida communications director for the campaign, told the paper.
Florida is one of the key battleground states this cycle and Romney is blowing off a campaign stop there because of “exhaustion”? Maybe he is truly exhausted, or maybe he is trying to figure out how to face the huge senior populace of Florida that depends upon Medicare, especially now that the man who wants to gut Medicare is his running mate.
