Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney talks with reporters outside Allentown Metal Works during a campaign event.
Allentown - Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney launched a tough attack on President Barack Obama's handling of the United States economy on Thursday, accusing him of playing golf while Americans hunger for jobs.
“Obamanomics is not working,” Romney said, standing in a weed-strewn back entrance to a shuttered metal works plant that Obama once visited as a potential symbol of hope.
Romney, arguably the front-runner in the field of candidates competing for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination, said Obama is not sufficiently focusing his attention on the economy, a view with which the White House would strongly disagree.
Romney visited Allentown on a day Obama was in raising money elsewhere in Pennsylvania, a state that went for Obama in the 2008 election.
Romney, a former governor of Massachusetts, said Obama should instead be back in Washington working on the economy and negotiating a debt deal with Republicans and Democrats.
Obama accused Republicans on Wednesday of taking too much time off without working on a deal to avert a government debt default on August 2.
“The president's time is being focused on playing golf and campaigning, campaigning in Pennsylvania today and blaming. He should be spending his time and his energy working on getting Americans back to work and fixing this economy,” Romney said. - Reuters
