It takes some serious chutzpah to make a statement like this when he blamed Bush for the craptastic economy day in and day out for two years.
(RCP) — Robert Gibbs says this election is not about “affixing blame” to the economic crisis after he noted people still blame Bush more than Obama for the troubled economy.
Gibbs also responds to Obama’s “bump in the road” comment that Romney pounced on in a web ad.
“This is not going to be and I’m not setting this up to be an election to blame George Bush, but what I’m suggesting is a series of decisions that got us into the mess is not a series of decisions we ought to make to get us out of it,” Gibbs told CNN’s David Gergen.
