Romney attacks Thompson on campaign finance

Well, well, Fred Thompson gets in and flip-flopping pandering Mitt Romney drops the hammer on Thompson over campaign-finance reform. You will recall that this is the same Mitt Romney who was against public funding of campaigns in 1994, for it in 2002, and now against it. And the same one who was for radical campaign finance reform, well to the left of McCain-Feingold.

So what is going on? Mitt Romney is scared of Fred Thompson...

There is a BIG difference between flip flopping, where you change your view day by day with no admission of your previous position (ie, Kerry) and admitting you were wrong on something and attempting to fix that (Thompson on his CFR vote..)

Go to redstate, this email has been proven false. The biggest indicator was Mitt was preaching his religion.

www.eyeon08.com is a very dubious source.

I did go to RedState. I saw no such proof.

It doesn’t even meet the requirement of this forum. One can easily hit the abuse button, but I will leave it up, because it outs the knife wielders.

Right click the gif of the email. The modified date (time) is older than the created date. This has been photoshopped. :)

Mitt should not get on Fred’s bad side. All Fred has to do is pay to run that “South Park” episode which absolutely devastates Mormonism, over and over again.

They ALL are, but Mitt is the first to slit his own throat by going after Thompson.

You guys can get suckered so easily.

This is Politics 101. Never attack a candidate until you get in the race. If you can make it look like you are being attacked while not being a candidate then you look like a Saint and your opponents look like the villian.

I would just think that Romney was relieved it wasn't Ann Coulter he was going to have to face.

Another thing about Romney is people keep bringing up his being a Morman as a big hurdle but for me the big hurdles is he was elected governor of Massachusetts!

How much more red does the flag need to be?
