House Speaker John Boehner, in an interview with Fox News, accused
President Obama of employing the politics of "envy and division" in
his bid for a second White House term.
The speaker had unusually harsh words for the incumbent president as
he described the stakes in the 2012 election. He said Americans "can't
live" with Obama for another four years and that "his policies will
turn America in a direction that we may never recover from" -- as he
touted Mitt Romney's chances going into November.
Though polls generally show the presumptive GOP nominee trailing a bit
behind Obama in a general election match-up, Boehner said Romney is
"doing fine" considering the "bruising primary" he's been through. He
accused Obama's team of trying to distract from the issues that could
harm them, like the economy.
"The election's going to be a referendum on the president's economic
policies, pure and simple," Boehner told Fox News, in an interview
that aired Tuesday morning.
