"We just need a president to sign this stuff"

Pacquiao -- Given that he's been on both sides of just about every major issue, some folks in both parties have wondered whether a President Romney would be as "severely conservative" as he says. Well, check this out: At last week's Conservative Political Action Conference, GOP ringleader Grover Norquist talked about who he wants in the White House: "All we have to do is replace Obama. ... We are not auditioning for fearless leader. We don't need a president to tell us in what direction to go. We know what direction to go. We want the Paul Ryan budget. ... We just need a president to sign this stuff." They're not looking for a leader -- they're looking for someone to rubber stamp the Tea Party agenda coming out of Congress. And Romney's their man. We don't just have the presidency at stake. We have the Senate to keep, and the House to gain. Now, I need to know you're with us on all three: Will you pitch in $5 or more to support Democrats? Remember: Norquist is the guy who said he wants to "shrink government to the size where we can drown it in a bathtub." And his speech shows us what we can look forward to if he and his allies are successful: A president who will stand for slashing Medicare, gutting Social Security, and raising taxes on the middle class so they can give the wealthy a break. Later in his speech, Norquist said all they must do is "pick a Republican with enough working digits to handle a pen to become president of the United States." That's what we're up against. From now until November, we're going to be supporting the President's efforts. And we'll be working in states and congressional districts around the country to make sure we keep people willing to pass the Tea Party agenda out of Congress, and people willing to sign it out of the White House. Help support that work. Chip in $5 or more today: https://my.democrats.org/No-Rubber-Stamp Thanks, Brad Brad Woodhouse Communications Director Democratic National Committee
