Boston Mayor Thomas Menino took on his former governor, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, in his speech to the Democratic National Convention on Wednesday.

Mitt Romney spends a lot of time in this campaign talking about his business experience and about how, if elected, he will create "lots of jobs." I've been thinking, this pitch sounds familiar. And you know why? Because it's the same thing he said when he ran for governor of my state. He promised to bring business to the state, but when he was in office, Massachusetts was 47th out of all 50 states in job creation. There's a reason for that: Governor Romney cut education, he cut workforce training, he disguised his tax hikes as "fees," and he still exploded our long term debt by $2.6 billion. Mitt likes business-speak. Think of me as a reference check. In Massachusetts, Mitt Romney had the one job in his life that's closest to being president, and he wasn't all that good at it.

Mitt Romney talked last week about broken promises. Well, he would know. Even worse, Governor Romney is now running away from his major accomplishment-a health care reform that he called a model for the nation. I like Mitt Romney. But he's learned all the wrong lessons, and now he's doubling down on all the wrong plans. His campaign is based in Boston, a city moving forward, but his ideas would set our country back.

Up in Boston, we have a plaque that says: "Paul Revere started a ride, which in a way has never ended." That's true about our country, too. In every generation, the American people have taken up that ride, pushing the United States forward. We've never gone back. So today we have a clear choice to make. Will we move forward together? Or will we go back to the trickle down philosophies that Mitt Romney believes in? The choice is clear-it's time to keep moving forward. It's time to re-elect Barack Obama as president of the United States! Thank you, Charlotte, and good night.

Romney has no clue... no plans or directions to lead this country.....
