FOX News' Carl Cameron & Jake Gibson - 7/1/09: Former presidential candidate Mitt Romney called on Republicans to "stand up" to President Obama and his policies on the economy, health care and energy . . . "I think Republicans have to stand up and make it very, very clear that we run the risk as a nation of having the entire world lose confidence in the currency of the United States and that would lead to something worse than a recession -- that would lead to an extraordinary slowdown globally that would hurt us more than any other. . . . When the stimulus bill is wrong, when it wastes money and threatens the viability of our currency long-term, you have to stand up and say 'no.' When a health care plan says we're going to have the government take over health care which is roughly a fifth of our economy, Republicans are going to have to say 'no' to that," he said. . . .Though not playing it up, Romney isn't ruling out another run at American politics' biggest prize. "At this stage it's too early to try to see what's going to happen down the road," he said. "I haven't closed the door on my future, but I'm not walking through it either." According to a recent Pew poll, among Republicans Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin -- despite the unceasing drama surrounding her and her family -- is the GOP's most popular leader, with a 73% approval rating. Romney had 57% . . . .
