Obama deputy campaign manager Stephanie Cutter continued the campaign's effort to inextricably link Mitt Romney to Paul Ryan's budget plan on a conference call with reporters today.

Cutter called the Romney campaign's most recent ad, which accuses President Obama of excising work requirements from welfare reform, "the latest act of desperation to distort from the things we do want to talk about, like substantive issues of Mitt Romney's tax plan or Paul Ryan's budget."

"Mitt Romney has spent the last 48 hours running away from Paul Ryan's budget," Cutter said. "Unfortunately he can't run that far."

"He called it marvelous, said that he would sign it into law on his first day in office, and many of his policies match Paul Ryan's directly on point," Cutter said, mentioning tax cuts.

"That's what we call a substantive debate."

Both advisor David Axelrod and Cutter appeared on Sunday shows this past weekend to launch the campaign's offensive against Ryan. Axelrod, appearing on ABC's "This Week," called Ryan a "right-wing ideologue, the intellectual energy behind the Republican caucus there in Congress."

On CBS' "Face the Nation," Cutter faced off against Romney advisor Eric Fehrnstrom, saying that the Ryan plan would "be the end of Medicare as we know it. It would increase costs on seniors and throw them in the private market."

Romney has said he'll lay out his own budget plan.


When The White House Was Open To Reforming Entitlements

The Obama campaign is gearing up to attack Paul Ryan for his budget which reforms the Medicare program for those under the age of 55. But the White House wasn't always on the offense against Medicare changes, with senior Obama advisor David Plouffe saying in July of last year the President would be open to raising the retirement age.

New Senior Romney Advisor Called Ryan Entitlement Reform Plans "Irresponsible...A Bad Idea"

0

In the Bush years, Ryan wanted to go bigger on Social Security privatization.

Peter Wehner, a former aide to President George W. Bush announced he was joining the Romney campaign as a senior adviser today in an email obtained by BuzzFeed. Complicating Wehner's new role could be his past critique of entitlement reform proposals from Romney's running mate Paul Ryan.

In 2005 when the Bush Administration attempted to tackle reforming social security, Ryan and former New Hampshire Senator John Sununu proposed a social security privatization plan known as Ryan-Sununu that Ryan described as the "most humane way to save Social Security." The plan would allow workers to invest into private accounts about half of their payroll taxes. The plan claimed it would have no cuts in benefits and no tax increases.

The White House, at the urging of Karl Rove, for whom Wehner worked as an aide, decided to keep its distance from Ryan's plan and go with a proposal they thought was more politically viable with smaller private accounts.

In a leaked White House memo taking issues with Ryan's plan, Wehner blasted the plan as irresponsible for not providing a significant enough overhaul to fix the program, but merely provided "personal retirement accounts" alone.

You may know that there is a small number of conservatives who prefer to push only for investment accounts and make no effort to adjust benefits -- therefore making no effort to address this fundamental structural problem. In my judgment, that's a bad idea. We simply cannot solve the Social Security problem with Personal Retirement Accounts alone. If the goal is permanent solvency and sustainability -- as we believe it should be --then Personal Retirements Accounts, for all their virtues, are insufficient to that task. And playing "kick the can" is simply not the credo of this President. He wants to do what needs to be done for genuine repair of Social Security.

If we duck our duty, it can have serious short-term economic consequences. Here's why. If we borrow $1-2 trillion to cover transition costs for personal savings accounts and make no changes to wage indexing, we will have borrowed trillions and will still confront more than $10 trillion in unfunded liabilities. This could easily cause an economic chain-reaction: the markets go south, interest rates go up, and the economy stalls out. To ignore the structural fiscal issues -- to wholly ignore the matter of the current system's benefit formula -- would be irresponsible.

Credit To A Critic Rankles Some In Romneyland

Bill Kristol has been hard on Mitt, but he liked Ryan. Kristol says he doesn't want credit.

Source: weeklystandard.com

The rollout of Vice Presidential candidate Paul Ryan was, as far as the Romney campaign is concerned, pretty much perfect, save one thing: The amount of credit Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol is getting for it.

Romney aides are, a person close to the campaign said, "miffed" at the perception that Kristol — a longtime thorn in Romney's side — could have influenced the Ryan nomination. That perception is, they have told allies, "a crock of shit."

It is also widespread.

"Once Again, Bill Kristol Gets His Way," read the Politico headline, one of many marveling at the editor, who had also pushed for the nomination of Governor Sarah Palin. The story continues:

“Bill Kristol?” Andrea Saul, the Romney campaign press secretary asked POLITICO, sarcastically, in response to a request for comment. She declined to say anything more.

Kristol is close to Ryan, and tells POLITICO that he “began to entertain the idea of Ryan as VP a year ago, the day after he announced he wouldn’t run for president.”

While Kristol’s support may not have directly influenced Romney’s decision — which, campaign sources say, was made Aug. 1 — his support for Ryan intensified the buzz surrounding the 42-year-old congressman and brought excitement over the possibility a Romney-Ryan ticket to a fever pitch, setting the tone for Ryan’s introduction in Norfolk, Va., on Saturday morning.

“I’m sure [Romney] didn’t pick Ryan because Bill was out there banging the drum, but his banging the drum makes it more feasible, more conceivable, lays the groundwork for the announcement,” Michael Goldfarb, a contributing editor at the Weekly Standard and a longtime Kristol disciple, told POLITICO. “And I’m sure if Bill spent the last six months saying Ryan shouldn’t be the VP, that would have made it a little harder.”

Kristol, a longtime player in politics and policy with a penchant for political mischief-making, ran a one-man anyone-but-Romney campaign for much of 2011 and 2012. He implored Chris Christie and Marco Rubio to run. He praised Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum.

After Romney won the nomination, Kristol kept poking: He said last month that Romney was "crazy" not to release his old tax returns.

"Speaking of losing candidates from Massachusetts: Is it too much to ask Mitt Romney to get off autopilot and actually think about the race he's running?” Kristol wrote in July.

And on August 9, he and Stephen Hayes offered Romney the "awfully strong case for picking Paul Ryan as your running mate."

That last editorial got another wave of attention when Ryan was, in fact, picked; but Romney's campaign moved quickly to make clear they hadn't been pushed: Romney made up his mind, aide Beth Myers said, on August 1.

A Romney spokesperson declined to comment on Kristol's role, but pointed to Myers discussions of the pick's timing.

And Kristol himself isn't claiming any credit. He was as effusive toward Romney as he's ever been on Fox News Sunday yesterday. He had, he said, had "cordial dealings" with the campaign all weekend.

"My sense is he's had it mind for a long time," Kristol said.

Romney Won't Say Where He Disagrees With Ryan On Medicare

Stumping with the conservative visionary — but he won't commit to the vision.

MIAMI, Florida — Mitt Romney declined to say how he disagreed with his running mate on the issue of Medicare reform, despite taking three different versions of the question from reporters in a press conference Monday.

In the 72 hours since Romney tapped Paul Ryan to join him on the Republican ticket, his campaign has repeatedly insisted that he won't be adopting the Congressman's bold, and controversial, plan to turn Medicare into a voucher system, with aides saying he doesn't agree with his running mate on every issue. But asked where, exactly, he disagreed with Ryan, Romney demurred.

"The items that we agree on far outweigh the things we disagree on," he said, adding later, "I can't imagine any two people who have exactly the same positions on the same issues."

He went on to emphasize that he and Ryan agree that President Obama was wrong to cut $700 billion in Medicare spending in order to pay for the Affordable Care Act, and repeated that he would not change Medicare for those currently in the system.

"Instead, look down the road for the future, for young people coming along, let's make sure we're making promises we can keep," he said.

Romney has sought to draw energy from the sense of Ryan as a visionary without buying into details of his vision, a strategy that is now under serious pressure.

Asked whether the electorate was ready for major reforms to the program, Romney said, "I can't tell you about the politics of something like the Medicare issue, but I can tell you about the truth. The truth is we simply cannot pretend [that being] on track to become bankrupt is acceptable."

Obama Campaign Chief Unleashes On Ryan: Why The Hell Did Romney Pick This Guy?

0

Jim Messina, Obama's tough as nails campaign manager in Chicago, gets as close to profanity as he can in a fundraising email: “You might be wondering why the hell Romney picked this guy.”

Campaign manager Jim Messina kept up the verbal assault on Rep. Paul Ryan today, calling him a "poster boy for the extreme Republican leadership" and an "ultraconservative ideologues."

Messina, nicknamed Obama's "Enforcer," is known for his sometimes colorful language. In the email, he asks the president's supporters "why the hell Romney picked this guy," before asking for a $3 donation.

Email below:

"Congressman Paul Ryan is the poster boy for the extreme Republican leadership in a Congress whose overall approval rating is 12 percent. His plan to dismantle Medicare is deeply unpopular with the general public, and especially undecided voters.

You might be wondering why the hell Romney picked this guy. But this is a strategic pick that carries real danger for us.

Here's the calculation: Mitt Romney doesn't need or expect Paul Ryan to convince even one undecided voter to cast their ballot for him. That's not what he's on the ticket for. He's there to reassure and inspire ultraconservative ideologues and corporate interests that they will have one of their own a heartbeat from the presidency.

That means tens or even hundreds of millions more dollars for the Romney campaign and the array of outside groups supporting him -- and if current trends hold, more than 90 percent of that money will be spent on TV ads -- lying, distorting and trashing Barack Obama. Those ads will have more impact on undecided voters than anything Paul Ryan himself does or says.

Mitt Romney is convinced that picking Paul Ryan is a great investment for him. And his campaign is already touting the pledges and donations they've received as a result, with fundraising events planned for this week.

We're already being outraised, and we can't afford to fall further behind. Our records show that you're still waiting to make your first online donation -- now is the time."

Anonymous Donor Funded Mystery Mailer For LGBT Group, Sources Say

Why was the Task Force in the gambling business? No answers from the group.

The mailer sent from the National Gay & Lesbian Task Force Action Fund's independent expenditure group in Maryland.

Officials with the National Gay & Lesbian Task Force initially told people who asked about a mailer sent to Maryland Democrats this past week that it was funded by an anonymous donation provided to its Action Fund political lobbying arm, BuzzFeed has learned.

The mailer, which threw the group headlong into a complicated battle over expanding gambling in the state, has raised eyebrows in the LGBT advocacy community, and the Task Force has refused to explain its origins.

The group that sent the mailer, started this past week by the Task Force, is an independent expenditure committee, allowing the mailer to have been funded through a single contribution to the National Gay & Lesbian Task Force's Action Fund, which then could have been funneled to the independent expenditure committee for the purpose of sending the mailing to Maryland Democrats. Depending on how many mailers actually were sent — there are more than 1.8 million registered Democrats in Maryland — the mailing could have cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.

The Task Force has refused to name the source of the significant amount of money required to produce the mailing, and would not respond to questions raised about whether the money came from an anonymous source outside of the organization, instead only providing a response from its acting executive director, Darlene Nipper, that the effort was "funded by the Task Force Action Fund."

Noting in a statement that the Task Force has "been involved in the efforts to secure marriage equality in Maryland," Task Force deputy executive director Darlene Nipper echoed an earlier response provided by the organization's communications director, saying, "This mailer, which was funded by the Task Force Action Fund, is part of the effort to get marriage equality over the finish line in Maryland by advocating that an uncluttered ballot provides for the best chance for securing marriage equality this November."

The mailer, which stated it came from the "National Gay & Lesbian Task Force Action Fund Maryland Political Action Committee" and landed in Maryland Democrats' mailboxes on August 8, stated, "[W]e encourage anyone who supports Marriage Equality to contact their legislators and ask them to say 'no' to gaming." The existing gambling operations in Maryland have been among the most strongly opposed to the vote on the expansion, which is being considered by a special session of the Maryland General Assembly that began on August 9.

Although BuzzFeed has learned that Task Force officials told individuals on August 8 that the funding for the mailer came from an anonymous donation, BuzzFeed was told on August 9 only that the "National Gay and Lesbian Task Force Action Fund Maryland Political Action Committee" funded the mailer. A Maryland political action committee is required to reveal its donors and individual donors are limited to $4,000 donations, according to the state's campaign finance head. In its initial responses to BuzzFeed on August 9, the Task Force's communications director did not correct BuzzFeed's understanding based on the language used on the mailer that the Action Fund had started a political action committee in Maryland.

On August 10, however, BuzzFeed reported that the effort actually was registered as an independent expenditure committee — which has significantly less burdensome disclosure requirements.

The Task Force's communications director, Inga Sarda-Sorensen, then told BuzzFeed on August 11 that the mailer "was funded by the Task Force Action Fund" and was "part of the effort to get marriage equality over the finish line in Maryland by advocating that an uncluttered ballot provides for the best chance for securing marriage equality this November."

She added, "The Task Force Action Fund registered an independent expenditure committee, and as such is required to file campaign disclosure reports and disclose its Maryland activity in accordance with Maryland law."

Today, when asked again by BuzzFeed about the funding source of the mailer, including the claim that Task Force officials earlier told individuals that an anonymous donor had provided the funding for the mailer, Nipper reiterated the points made by Sarda-Sorensen, saying in a statement, "The Task Force Action Fund registered an independent expenditure committee — sometimes referred to as an independent-expenditure-only political action committee — and as such is required to file campaign disclosure reports and disclose its Maryland activity in accordance with Maryland law. We will continue to support the work to secure marriage equality in Maryland."

The Task Force's executive director, Rea Carey, is on sabbatical until the end of August and has been since July 1.

Under Maryland law, the Task Force Action Fund's independent expenditure committee will need to report its expenditures — but not until October, long after the special session of Maryland's legislature that the mailer is attempting to influence will have completed its work. Sarda-Sorensen stated on August 9 that the mailer was sent to "Maryland Democrats," but she did not respond when asked this afternoon how much the independent expenditure committee spent on the mailer. BuzzFeed then asked for that information in writing, as requested, but has not received a response.

BuzzFeed has contacted Nipper repeatedly, leaving voice mails asking to speak with her about the mailer, and has asked the Task Force's communications director to allow BuzzFeed to speak directly with Nipper, but Nipper has not yet responded to the requests.

BuzzFeed also has attempted to reach the seven board members of Action Fund, sending email messages to board members Marsha Botzer of Botzer Consulting and Hans Johnson of Progressive Victory; leaving two direct voice mail messages with board member Monique Hall of DCI Group; and speaking with the assistants or board contacts for board president Mark Sexton of Revlon and board members Alan Bernstein of Harper Management and Brad Carlson of CIC Group (for whom a message was left with another organization on whose board he serves). A message was left at a phone number listed for Eric von Kuersteiner's business, Pines Commercial Properties, but it was not clear that the number was still active for the business. None of the messages have been returned.

Questions about outside influence on LGBT organizations and other advocacy groups are not new. In 2011, the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation faced questions about the influence a board member with ties to AT&T and the board member's donations had upon organizational activity only tangentially related to its mission — questions that ended with the resignation of GLAAD's executive director. At that time, Carey acknowledged the same company's influence upon the Task Force, telling Metro Weekly that two different letters were sent by the Task Force to the Federal Communications Commission at the request of AT&T. Carey said at the time that sending the letter was a "mistake," noting, "[W]e corrected it right away."

Conservatives Launch National Bush Tax Cut Ad Campaign

0
0

In separate ads group hits House Democrats over Senate tax plan while backing GOP support for full extension.

Conservatives Tuesday announced a new ad campaign using a Senate Democratic tax plan with virtually no chance of passage to slam Democrats while giving Republicans support for opposing the bill.

Run by former aides to Majority Leader Eric Cantor, YG Network’s $250,000 ad buy will use two separate ads – one targeting Democrats and urging them to oppose the bill and a second, aimed at Republicans praising their opposition.

YG Network senior advisor Brad Dayspring said in a release that “Congress should reject tax hikes which would make it even harder and destroy jobs for so many workers already struggling in this lagging economy.”

In a largely ceremonial vote last month Democrats passed a partial extension of the Bush-era tax cuts in an effort to short-circuit Republicans’ use of the tax issue as an election year bludgeon.

The Senate Democratic bill is opposed by House Republicans and will never make it to the president’s desk, although Cantor could decide to hold a vote on the bill next month to put Democrats on the spot in the House just before the election.

Still, the legislation provides a useful foil for conservatives who have sought to keep the issues of spending and taxes on the front burner during the congressional recess.

In “Keep the Light On,” which targets Democrats, the group hits Democrats for opposing a House GOP tax measure, arguing the targeted lawmakers “voted against legislation that would have stopped a tax hike on people who build their small businesses and create jobs we need” before calling on them to “reject” the Senate bill.

In “Keep Fighting,” meanwhile, YG Action argues that “liberals don’t understand how to create jobs and fix our economy” and then asks viewers to “tell [the lawmaker] to vote for jobs by rejecting” the Senate bill.

Democrats targeted by the ad buy include Reps. Lois Capps, Louise Slaughter, John Tierney, David Cicilline, Kathy Hochul, John Garamendi and Nick Rahall.

Targeted Republicans include Reps, Rep. Frank Guinta, Robert Hurt, Kristi Noem, Ann Marie Buerkle, Nan Hayworth, Jon Runyan and Diane Black.

The Return Of No-Risk Romney

No answer on Medicare, and no salsa music. Romney seems to want Ryan, but not the Ryan plan.

MIAMI, Florida — Has Mitt Romney already lost his taste for risk-taking? 

Less than 72 hours after tapping Paul Ryan to be his running mate — a daring choice that cast the GOP ticket as a pair of visionary reformers — the Republican nominee found himself on a baking airport tarmac Monday afternoon acting a lot like his old self: Dodging reporters' questions, avoiding specific policy prescriptions, and generally projecting the sort of fence-straddling caution that many thought he'd retired with his bold veep pick.

The headline from the press conference was Romney's refusal to explain how his vision of Medicare reform differed from that of his newly minted running mate. But that wasn't even his first instance of calculated evasiveness in the nine-minute press conference.

Romney began his remarks by offering his "thoughts and prayers" to the victims of the shooting near Texas A&M campus that had taken place earlier in the day. 

"Clearly, there's going to have to be consideration given to how it is these tragedies could be prevented," Romney said, broadly. "I don't have the answer for you today, but it's something I'm gonna give thought to and I'm sure a lot of other people in the country will do the same."

But when a reporter asked whether he thought gun control should be part of the solution, Romney demurred, saying that he didn't personally associate violence with gun access, but offering no other potential solutions.

"I'm not referring to any particular legislation, I'm just saying that this is something that needs to take some thoughtful consideration," he offered. 

When the press turned its attention to Medicare reform, Romney was similarly cagey. Despite days of his aides insisting that the nominee was not beholden to his running mate's lightning-rod budget proposal — a vision that is the sole reason for Ryan's fame, and his place on the ticket — Romney failed to answer four separate questions about where, exactly, he differed with Ryan. Instead, he said, "I can't imagine any two people who have exactly the same positions."

Reporters came away from the gaggle unclear on where Romney stood on the issue, Medicare, that could swing the election in Florida. The message was so muddled that, within hours, the campaign had to dispatch its chief policy wonk, Lanhee Chen, to clarify the candidate's position — a regular occurrence on the Romney trail, but something Ryan, a full-throated advocate for aggressive entitlement changes, has likely never had to do.

"Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan have always been fully committed to repealing Obamacare, ending President Obama’s $716 billion raid on Medicare, and tackling the serious fiscal challenges our country faces," said Lanhee Chen, Romney’s policy director, said in a statement. "A Romney-Ryan Administration will restore the funding to Medicare, ensure that no changes are made to the program for those 55 or older, and implement the reforms that they have proposed to strengthen it for future generations."

Campaign advisers did not respond to requests for elaboration, nor would they comment on the tension between the "bold reformer" brand being pushed by the Romney/Ryan campaign, and the instinctively cautious nature at the top of the ticket.
 
Other Republicans, however, were willing to give him a pass. GOP strategist Rick Wilson said the two have only been running together for a few days.

"I think they've accomplished the important mission: fire up the base, raise money, and get him staffed," Wilson said, adding that Ryan will get on board with whatever plan Romney introduces. "Ryan gets it. He's not running for budget director. He's not running to be the head of Medicare. He's running for Vice President, and Presidents make, set, and implement policy."

First, though, Romney will have to detail the policies he supports — something he's avoided doing his whole campaign. 

In his final event of the day, Romney attended a jam-packed, slightly hectic rally outside a small business in Miami's thriving conservative enclave of Cuban-Americans. Romney's son, Craig, was on hand to speak Spanish to the attendees, and Senator Marco Rubio, a hero in this community, riled up the estimated crowd of 2,000 with soaring rhetoric about the American Dream. 

But when Romney took the stage, he rushed through his standard stump speech with no mention of Cuba policy, or really any other fresh additions. It was old-school Romney: sticking to the economy-focused script.

Ana Navarro, a Hispanic outreach adviser to John McCain's 2008 campaign, was critical of Romney's failure to tailor his message or offer specifics — though she noted that he answered questions on Cuba and Veneuzuela in a local press interview beforehand. 

"The event was clearly designed to appeal to Miami Hispanics but he could have been giving that speech anywhere," Navarro said. "For a guy who gets painted as not connecting, I don't see how it would hurt to put in a few phrases that appeal to the crowd hr's speaking to. He could have knocked it out of the ballpark by drawing a clear contrast with Obama on Cuba and Venezuela policy, and the crowd would have loved it."

Overall, though, Navarro said she was resigned to Romney's style.

"They have their model and they don't veer from it," she said. "He'll give the same stump speech and close with the same country music even if the audience would rather hear about bringing freedom to Latin America and listen to Salsa music."

Romney and Obama impersonators come along for the ride.

As part of the launch of its new direct flight line from San Francisco to Washington D.C., Virgin America debuted the first ever in-flight voter registration program this morning. The airline partnered with Rock the Vote, an organization dedicated to youth political engagement, and PromoJam, a social media marketing company.

The airline's back-of-the-seat entertainment systems will now feature a Scan to Vote QR code that passengers may scan with their smart phones, the company said. In doing so, flyers will be brought to a mobile app that enables them to register to vote with Rock the Vote.

As of now, Virgin America plans to continue the voter registration program until election day of this year.

Rock the Vote registered over 2 million people in 2008, and is aiming for another 1.5 million voters this year.

To celebrate its in-flight voter registration, Virgin brought along comedians Jim Gossett and Reggie Brown to impersonate Mitt Romney and President Barack Obama. Both Gossett and Brown will be on board for the duration of the flight.
