Mitt Romney, ¿el gran comunicador?, stuck his foot in his mouth, quoting Castro in front of Cubans. Unfortunately for him, someone recorded it. Fortunately for Romney, they pulled it down: Now, I wouldn’t normally make a fuss of this. But the Romney campaign has done this before. It started with Read more…
Now, maybe I’m crazy. But I think that this talk of Mitt Romney and Fred Thompson running on repealing BCRA is politically lunatic. In 2008, Republicans are going to be running into headwind on ethics and corruption. The VP’s Chief of Staff was just convicted of a felony. People are Read more…
So says Scott Helman. I am surprised by his ingenuity. He’s flip-flopped on more issues than I could have thought of.
The Globe quotes a political scientist saying Romney can raise $15m in Q1. That’s silly. Hotline says more like $30m with $7m from LDSers. My money is closer to $40m. The Globe needs better political scientists. Or at least ones that read Hotlineblog.
So I saw this new Franklin Pierce poll that Hugh Hewitt is touting. Now something seems fishy about this. Romney’s ads haven’t been moving people in any state, but, apparently, New Hampshire. And while Mitt Romney is well known, he doesn’t have a home field advantage, as his consultant Rich Read more…
Today, Mitt Romney was discussed on Fox News. Shep Smith asked what was going on in the 2008 race. The lefty consultant said Mitt Romney was a flip-flopper. That’s not the news. The news is that Carrie Lukas, the Vice President of Policy and Economics at the Independent Women’s Forum, Read more…
Marc Ambinder writes a little about a Romney "reshuffle", but I think he dances around the point. Julie Teer got demoted: The current national field director is Julie Teer, who joined Romney’s campaign when it was a sparsely funded political action committee. Teer will become deputy finance director for affinity Read more…
Dick Morris in The Hill (good upgrade…. BTW, the unpublished RSS feeds have all the articles) argues that Romney and Gingrich, both "politically dead", are blocking the rise of a conservative: Right-wingers who would pass the litmus test … face the need to climb over the political corpses of former Read more…
Romney says the court shouldn’t be involved. Life News says it might sink him. I wonder what Hugh Hewitt and Jeb Bush think.
55% in the district in 2002… And think of all the great TV ads that you could run with $40m.
