GREELEY, Colo. — Today both GOP contenders were mocking President Obama’s suggestion, made in an MSNBC interview earlier in the week, to create a “Secretary of Business.” In the battleground state of Colorado, Ryan told a crowd of 1,000 assembled in the parking lot of an events center that the president “can’t run on the broken promises,” but that “he did come up with a new idea the other day.”

“He wants to create a new ‘secretary of business,’” Ryan said. “We already have a secretary of business. It’s actually called secretary of commerce. That’s what this agency does. Let me ask you a question: Can anybody name our current secretary of commerce? You know why? We don’t have one! It’s been vacant for over four months … we don’t need another bureaucrat or another bureaucracy, we need another president.”

In Roanoke, Va., earlier today Romney went after the president, saying, ”I don’t think adding a new chair in his cabinet will help add millions of jobs on Main Street.”

“We don’t need a secretary of business to understand business, we need a president who understands business and I do!” Romney said
