During his withdrawal speech at CPAC today, former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney claimed that an electoral victory by either Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-NY) or Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) “would mean attacks on America” because he says they would “retreat, declare defeat.” “About this, I have no doubt,” added Romney. Watch it:
Romney’s parting shot is reminescent of Vice President Dick Cheney’s claim in 2004 that America would “get hit again” if voters made “the wrong choice” and elected Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) president.
