Not really an interesting story...unless you find misrepresentation, hyperbole and downright spin to be interesting. Heck, the title of the article says it all with the word "stumbles". I haven't seen Romney's campaign stumble yet.
Well the fact you have not seen them stumble only show how little you have been focusing on his campaign.
Perhaps you...who have obviously focused on his campaign...can educate me on these alleged stumbles. The writer of the article you referenced sure didn't.
Republican lawmakers are grumbling about the direction of Mitt Romney’s campaign and say he needs to change course.
The complaints come as polls show that Romney lost ground on President Obama following the party’s respective conventions in Tampa, Fla. and Charlotte, N.C.
The GOP members say Romney must do a better job of communicating to voters what to expect of him, either by making a bold pledge akin to George H.W. Bush’s 1988 “no new taxes” promise or fleshing policy proposals with more details.
“Papa Bush was down after the Democratic convention in 1988, people worried he couldn’t come back and then he made his ‘read my lips, no new taxes’ pledge,” said one senator who requested anonymity.
The Republican said Romney should make a concise, bold promise to reform wasteful spending in Washington.
“He should say, ‘I’m a money manager and I will manage your money in Washington. I will eliminate waste, fraud and abuse. Obama wants you to send more money so he can spend more money.’”
Some GOP senators are worried that Romney has yet to give voters a clear vision of what to expect if he is to become president.
Sorry. Not stumbles. Merely other GOP members who have their own advice.
Show me a stumble.
The convention speech is a fine example. A hall full of veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan and not a single mention of either war?
Hmmm...
Maybe what we have here is a different understanding of what a "stumble" is.
To me, a stumble is something like what the Democrats did during their convention. You remember when they displayed the great picture of our Navy? Only it wasn't our Navy...it was Russia's Navy.

Is there something that says we have to do what liberals want in order to be elected?
I wouldn't know; I'm not a liberal.

Lets see..
He said he was unemployed to a bunch of unemployed people.. he is worth over 200 million dollars. He stated that his wife drove a couple of Cadillacs. His whole Europe tour was one stumble after another. And there are all his flip-flops.... the list of stumbles is as long as his car elevator in his "small" house in California, because there is not enough space in a 3 bedroom 12 million dollar house for him and his wife... And then there was President Ryan at the announcement of his running mate.. Need I go on?
Sure, that was a stumble. So was Romney's lack of respect for the troops.
(I'm not a Democrat, by the way; more, I used to be a Republican. You don't have to play the "see? the Democrats do it, too!" game with me.)
These things matter. It would have been a forgivable oversight had Romney's speech been well-delivered or particularly charismatic. But it's clear that he's not cut out for public speaking.

Have fun with your own little circle jerk of like minded rubes all chattering the same thing....I personally am laughing at you.
