Mitt Romney says he is going to try to repeal McCain-Feingold. Fine, I agree that McCain-Feingold is bad, as do most conservatives. But… Isn’t this laughable? I mean, this guy advocated taxing political contributions to fund "clean elections". Where is Mitt Romney? Wherever the wind blows.

MItt Romney’s appearance on This Week will likely be viewed as one of the fundamental mistakes in the campaign. Not only has he had a problem with his statements on why he voted for Paul Tsongas. He is going to have another problem on taxes. In talking about taxes and the Americans for Tax Reform [...]

Mitt Romney explained today why he voted for Paul Tsongas in 1992. He said: "When there was no real contest in the Republican primary, I’d vote in the Democrat primary, vote for the person who I thought would be the weakest opponent for the Republican." However, there are several problems with this: Erick Erickson points [...]

I think that this press release just about says it all. No need to comment. Apparently this was triggered by the Romney campaign circulating statements comparing Sam Brownback and Mitt Romney’s record on abortion:  Mitt Romney’s Campaign Misleads Voters about Senator Brownback’s Position on Abortion "Mitt Romney’s flip flops are enough to make John Kerry [...]

Mitt Romney got slammed yesterday for flip-flopping on campaign finance reform. First The Hill wrote about it and then Caucus Cooler, a great Iowa blog, got his hands of Romney on C-SPAN video sounding like a wild-eyed campaign finance reform radical (below too). Then the Romney campaign sent out talking points rebutting the allegation that [...]

The Hill reports that in 2002 Mitt Romney advocated radical campaign finance reform: “Mr. Romney campaigned in favor of clean elections, which provides public money to candidates for state office who meet strict fundraising requirements,” the Telegram & Gazette reported. “But he suggested an alternative funding method. Instead of providing campaign funds from state coffers, [...]

Update: The Boston Herald wrote about Romney’s lousy record on this stuff this morning. According to Bloomberg, Romney has been so butchered on his flip-flopping on social issues, that now he wants to talk about economic issues. There his strategy seems to be to just lie rather than flip-flop. Mitt Romney said the other day: [...]

In the recent kerfuffle over the relationship between Mitt Romney’s universal health care plan and abortion, the Romney campaign issued a response in the "Myth vs. Fact" mode (although, I tend to think of them as "Mitt versus Reality"). At the end Romney said that he had a pro-life record, had defended the culture of [...]

The latest attack on Mitt Romney’s abortion conversion narrative involves his signature healthcare plan — which he now is distancing himself from. The question, raised by Red State and The Prowler and based on more information from Mass Resistance, is whether the healthcare plan expanded publicly funded abortion, which Romney was on record supporting in [...]

This can’t be smart. There goes Romney’s good media week. Romney launches an ad hominem attack against Brian Camecker, author of the the Mitt Romney Deception piece. Romney has been bleeding from that and an AP story about it. In an attempt to undermine Camenker’s credibility, Romney’s campaign says: Camenker Admits He Used To Be [...]
