A new broom sweeps clean. This country desperately needs to clean house with a new broom and a new president to man that broom.

Mitt Romney’s proven leadership, experience and strength of character show that, as president, he can man that broom and man it well.

The current president is incapable of dealing effectively with the piles of dirt and debris in his office.

Among other illustrations of ineptness, four years ago, Obama said if he couldn’t get the unemployment rate below 8 percent, his would be “a one term proposition.” It’s time to hold him to his words and put him out to pasture.

It is time to let Romney lead this country. For the national house to be swept clean, filled with fresh air and sunshine, and put back in presentable order, common sense says Romney is the man for the job.

I support Mitt Romney for president.
