Clinton on Romney record praise: My words were twisted

CBS News reports on Bill Clinton's follow-up on his comments on Bain and Mitt Romney on CNN last night:

But at a rally in Paterson to support Rep. Bill Pascrell, Clinton said his remarks got "twisted around."

"I said, you know, Governor Romney had a good career in business and he was a governor, so he crosses the qualification threshold for him being president," Clinton said. "But he shouldn't be elected, because he is wrong on the economy and all these other issues.

"So today, because I didn't attack him personally and bash him, I wake up to read all these stories taking it out of context as if I had virtually endorsed him, which means the tea party has already won their first great victory: 'We are supposed to hate each to disagree.' That is wrong." 



Clinton did, however, basically repeat the words that will end up in Republican response ads to the ones Democrats will air.
