ContributorNetwork - COMMENTARY | "@barackobama hope and change has become a hope we don't lose our house or have to change our address" tweets Tim Pawlenty, R-Minn., challenging the president.

Newt Gingrich, R-Ga., recently tweeted "Obama proves once gain he is the most effective food stamp president. Record levels were reached in May: http://t.co/LQiPlAEa." Not to be outdone, Mitt Romney, R-Mass., quipped via Twitter, "When you see what this president has done to the economy in 3 years, you know why America doesn't want to find out what he can do in 8."
