Official Romney talking point: ‘The ticket is no different that Obama and Biden’
Shortly after the former Massachusetts governor’s announcement that Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) would be his running mate, the Romney campaign released a document that aggregates all the bad things they think President Barack Obama might say about Ryan, in order to offer a series of talking points in response.
Half-way down the page, a single sentence stands out: “The ticket is no different that [sic] Obama and Biden.”
That passage, taken out of context, could be seen as yet another high profile gaffe by Romney’s communications team, which has been dogged lately by conservative critics for making crucial messaging missteps.
Of course, the statement (and misspelling of “than”) is not intended to be all-encompassing: that’s the Romney campaign’s response to the president’s theoretical, hasn’t-quite-happened-yet attack on Ryan’s lack of military service, which they just wanted to remind the media of for some reason.
