Romney: Spending cuts slow economic growth

That sort of comment was sure to raise the eyebrows of fiscal conservatives in the GOP, who have long preached a message of fiscal restraint as a path to economic growth.

“It’s hogwash. It confirms yet again that Romney is not a limited government conservative,” said Andy Roth, the vice president for government affairs at the fiscally conservative Club for Growth. “The idea that balancing the budget would not help the economy is crazy. If we balanced the budget tomorrow on spending cuts alone, it would be fantastic for the economy.”
