Today, Romney for President released a new web video, “Our Time.” Three years after President Obama proudly proclaimed that the economy was his, more than 23 million Americans are still out of work, underemployed, or no longer looking for work and we’ve seen forty straight months of unemployment over 8 percent. Just last week, the President said the economy “isn’t where it needs to be.” President Obama has had his moment and failed. Now it is our time.
