“In Gov. Romney, you have someone who has been a chief executive of a state, who has dealt with turning around complicated issues throughout his career, both in the U.S. and around the world, whether it was failed companies, whether it was a failed U.S. Olympics in Salt Lake City. So this is someone who’s decisive, who has a strong world view,” Senor said.
Romney will also try to turn foreign policy back to his wheelhouse and the issue voters say they care most about: the economy.
“I think it’s important for us to take a step back and recognize that what America does abroad is connected to what America does at home and vice versa,” Senor said. “I think you’re going to see Gov. Romney talking about that. It’s talking about how America’s ability to lead abroad and have a strong position abroad is right now limited, is inhibited by the terrible economic situation we’re in today at home. Our ability to support a strong defense budget is affected by our economy at home.
