During a question and answer period, an audience member openly proclaimed that Obama should be tried for treason.
Here’s his response to a CNN reporter about the incident:
“Today we saw Mitt Romney’s version of leadership: standing by silently as his chief surrogate attacked the president’s family at the event and another supporter alleged that the president should be tried for treason,” proclaimed Lis Smith, a spokeswoman for Obama re-election campaign. “Time after time in this campaign, Mitt Romney has had the opportunity to show that he has the fortitude to stand up to hateful and over-the-line rhetoric and time after time, he has failed to do so.”
What do you think? Should Romney have corrected the woman?
