Finding Romney’s 5-Point Plan.
I finally ran a copy of Romney’s Five-Point Plan to ground. You can read the full plan here. The official title: Mitt Romney’s Plan for a Stronger Middle Class.
I am working on a series of posts covering the points of the plan. But first, my nit-picks about the presenting of the plan and not necessarily what’s in the plan, which is pretty good stuff.
- The title “for a stronger middle class” feels like pandering to me. How about “for a stronger America”. Sorry, Romney, but it sounds like you are trying too hard to remind folks that even though you are wealthy you care about the middle class. I get that. You don’t have to hit us over the head.
- The plan contains quick, salient points but no details. I understand the need and desire for brevity. But could you at least add a web address to the plan so people know where to find the meat?
- Finding a PDF copy of the 5-point plan took too many clicks to find on the Romney for President web site. I had thought that simply Googling “Romney’s 5-Point Plan” would yield an immediate hit. Not so. Not even close. This is your meat & potatoes, campaign-stump speech primer. It’s the quick bullets you want voters, bloggers and reporters to know, remember and share so it should be easy to find. It should be everywhere. So what’s going on with your search engine gurus? Do you even have search engine gurus on staff?
I’m not complaining just to read my own complaints. I really do want Romney to win. America needs Romney to win. But in order to win, he needs to run the very best campaign possible.
So I e-mailed Romney’s campaign about not being able to easily locate the 5-point plan. So I’m sure by tomorrow it will be everywhere. 
Good on ya, Freedom. Your critcisms are spot on, in my opinion. a fewdays ago, I wanted to quote from Romney’s Five Point Plan in a post I was writing and I had the same problem you did, however, you were more persistant than I and I ended up talking from memory of on of his speeches. I hope the campaign takes your advice to heart!
And now you can follow the link in my post to actually see the plan.
Yeah, it’s very frustrating. I don’t think the Obama campaign is making these kinds of very avoidable mistakes. Just glancing at the Mainstream media, they get their points out there.
And if not, then the posts WE do on the plan will float to the top of search engines, right?
Well, freedom, google and all major SE heard you, as Mitt Romney’s FIVE POINT PLAN is atop all the boards. I think part of the problems is that Mitt Romney is not a born politician/baby-kisser. He’s a born problems solver; most times, America can do with a politician, but this time, when things are at a chasm, we need a fix-it lead it who will command respect and Barack Obamas’ followers are blind followers.
Many articles mention the 5-point plan and that’s showing up in search results. But the actual written plan itself is not at the top of the searches, yet. I agree with your sentiments about Romney being and us needing a problem solver. My minor complaints about the campaign are simply observations. He should have the best team possible and they should be doing the best job possible in all areas.
Keep in mind that he needs to deal with the congress that we give him.
Here is a different view of the polls that are presented to US on the MSM.

Interesting link, AFVET. I had heard the samplings were weighted to Dems but I had not idea what a difference the skewed poll #s make.
Thank you for the post and doing the leg work that others may not have the patience or the ability to do for themselves.
Let’s get the word out, not just for the upcoming election, but for our children and grandchildren. God be merciful to us and God bless America.
Amen, Richard.
They must be listening to you Freedom, it’s now on the second menu line- one click from home.
Just googled again and you’re right. But it gets better. #2 on the list was his full plan: Believe in ‘America, Mitt Romney’s Plan for Jobs and Economic Growth. http://www.mittromney.com/sites/default/files/shared/BelieveInAmerica-PlanForJobsAndEconomicGrowth-Full.pdf
Hooray! (It wasn’t there over the weekend!)
Maybe they do pay attention, at least to you!
