Mitt: Newt Gets No Credit for Reagan Jobs Record

Frontrunner tells rally-goers at Wofford College in Spartanburg, SC Gingrich cannot claim responsibility for creating jobs during the Great Communicator’s administration.

Romney: “The speaker just the other day at the debate was talking about how he created millions of jobs when he was working with the Reagan administration. Well, he’d been in Congress two years when Ronald Reagan came to office. That would be like saying 435 congressmen were all responsible for those jobs. Government doesn’t create jobs. It’s the private sector that creates jobs. Congressmen taking responsibility or taking credit for helping create jobs is like Al Gore taking credit for the Internet.”
