Romney: 'High levels of unemployment' will continue if Obama reelected

By Justin Sink - 11/01/12 11:46 AM ET

Mitt Romney returned to a full-throat attack on President Obama and his economic policies on Thursday — a signal that the campaign was back to full strength.

The GOP nominee, who had cautiously returned to the campaign trail Wednesday after taking a break in the wake of Hurricane Sandy, told supporters in Virginia that "if the president were to be re-elected, we're going to see high levels of unemployment continue." He also slammed Obama's suggestion of a "Secretary of Business."

“We don’t need a secretary of business to understand business. We need a president who understands business," Romney said. "I don't think adding a new chair in his cabinet will help add millions of dollars on Main Street."

That attack line will also be featured in a new Romney campaign ad debuting Thursday.
