Obama tells Romney to 'walk the walk' on China

The Democratic incumbent and the former Massachusetts governor have sparred for months over their respective polices on China, the United States' biggest lender and a popular punching bag during presidential campaigns.
Romney accuses Obama of being too soft on Beijing over its currency and trade practices. Obama, whose administration launched a World Trade Organization case against China on Monday for what it called illegal auto and auto-parts subsidies, says Romney's words do not match his actions.
"He made money investing in companies that uprooted from here and went to China ... Now you can't stand up to China when all you've done is sent them our jobs," Obama told a crowd of some 4,500.
"You can talk a good game, but I like to walk the walk, not just talk the talk," Obama said to cheers from the crowd, Reuters reports.
Obama's campaign has repeatedly knocked Romney's past as a private equity executive, saying his record was one of outsourcing and destroying manufacturing jobs.
Romney's campaign disputes that and said Obama's action on Monday, which he announced in the battleground state of Ohio where the auto industry is critical, was "too little, too late."
"President Obama's credibility on this issue has long since vanished. I will not wait until the last months of my presidency to stand up to China, or do so only when votes are at stake," Romney said in a statement.
"From Day One, I will pursue a comprehensive strategy to confront China's unfair trade practices and ensure a level playing field where our businesses can compete and win."
