Team Huntsman Swipes at Romney and Perry Over Boehner

Spox Tim Miller: “Does Mitt Romney think we need a deal on the debt limit before 8/2? Does he share Rick Perry’s view that default is no big deal? How does he feel default would impact American jobs? How can someone be expected to tackle the big issues as President if they hide from the tough issues as a candidate?”

Statement from Governor Daniels regarding Speaker Boehner’s debt proposal

“I hope the Indiana Congressional Delegation will support Speaker Boehner’s proposal. The terrifying, nation-threatening debt levels caused by past and present overspending and future overpromising will not be solved by any one action or in any one year. But the Boehner plan begins in the right place, with real spending restraint and would show Americans and world markets that we do not intend to commit financial suicide. I hope Congress passes it and then begins work immediately on step two of our long march back to national solvency and economic prosperity.”
