Romney blasts Obama as "crony capitalist"

Mitt Romney on Thursday returned his focus from his fellow Republican presidential candidates to President Obama, blasting the president for being a "crony capitalist" and a "job killer."

Romney, speaking at an event in Salem, New Hampshire, laid into Mr. Obama for taking what he called the "extraordinary" step of bypassing Congress for three appointments to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) on Wednesday.

"Yesterday the president did one more thing, an extraordinary thing, that convinces anybody who will go elsewhere that maybe they ought to go elsewhere," Romney told the crowd. "And that is that he said 'I ought to put more labor stooges on the National Labor Relations Board.'"
