Description | Businessman Ron Johnson, the Republican nominee in the Wisconsin Senate race, seems to have had another fun moment this morning -- declaring at a candidate forum that he doesn't have to have details on policy.
As WisPolitics reports:
GOP U.S. Senate candidate Ron Johnson said this morning he doesn't have specific details on how to solve the nation's issues, instead comparing himself to a promising job candidate who has the potential to learn on the job.
...
"I don't believe this election is about details. I really don't," Johnson said. "I've met with people in 60 counties and done 500 personal events, and my approach is to convey to people who I am, explain my manufacturing background, and then as honestly as I can, let people know what my philosophy is."
Johnson also said that when he interviews job applicants at his company, he looks at their backgrounds and attitudes, rather than specifics. "When I interview people, I don't expect them to come into that interview and say here are the problems and how to solve them," he said. |
