The trusty Capitol Report New Mexico Flipcam is really good when talking to folks one on one, but from far away?
Not so good.
Fortunately, we were able to find this videotape (with good audio) of Mitt Romney’s speech in Hobbs today (Aug. 23) talking about his campaign and giving some specifics about his energy policy that calls for independence from foreign sources by 2020. It’s from CBS News (you gotta sit through a 30-second commercial, but hey, it’s free):
Naturally, the Obama campaign criticized Romney’s proposal within minutes:
“If anything, Romney’s policies would take us backward,” Obama for America spokesman Lis Smith wrote in an email to reporters. “He wants to keep giving billions of dollars in tax subsidies to the big oil and gas companies and recklessly open new areas for drilling, but turn our back on increasing energy efficiency and developing our clean, homegrown energy sources.”
