Lil Katie needs to NAME HER SOURCE, or be a mouthpiece and accessory for the anonymous scumbags engaging in this character assassination.

Why would I believe anything that a Newsweek reporter says?

The Carl Cameron reports have been disavowed by Steve Schmidt and Rick Davis. If Carl was lied to, he should blow the cover on the leaker.

By the way, it is entirely plausible that this is a DEM action to strangle the baby in the crib before it gets stronger and poses a real threat in 2012.

The fact it came from Newsweek is all the proof I need — it came from Romney people.

“The Carl Cameron reports have been disavowed by Steve Schmidt and Rick Davis. If Carl was lied to, he should blow the cover on the leaker.”

Carl was an a$$hole for propogating this crap. I lost a lot of respect for FOXNEWS that evening. He was pathetic, standing there breathlessly recounting what the “unnamed” sources said.

I suspect that most of this is from one or more moles within the campaign (didn’t Pres. Bush have this same problem in 2000 ... seem to remember stolen campaign materials, etc.) and is enhanced/added to by the MSM.

I understand your anger, but use your brain.

Republicans need to purge these useless moderates from our party or we will constantly suffer their subterfuge and backbiting.

Oh, Romney's former press secretary is on record criticizing Palin's experience and qualifications.

Remember, Romney is a gov't healthcare, gay marriage, anti-Boy Scout Republican.

Myth Romney: "You will embrace this attack on Gov. Palin
and her little children and baby using 20% of our junior staff. Use Jindal's, McCain's and Huckabee's names
like our attacks on McCain and Thompson using Huckabee's name.
Support the attack on Palin from our lands and Belmont sanctuary mansion in
the north using the fake law enforcement badges we fabricated and enjoy.
I will gain GOP favor by condemning the attack and
ordering it opposed from our lands in the south, in the Hive, and some at Fox News and Newsweek. Whichever way
the tide runs, we will rise. "

If he has any integrity, he will.

I'll reserve judgment until that happens.

Carl Cameron was all to joyfull and giddy reporting this crap. I saw him on O’Reilly and Bill was downplaying it and trying ever so softly to put Carl in his place.

Carl Cameron is a jerk, and that is putting it nicely. What is Carl’s backround?

unlike 2008 where there was no clear choice for conservatives (since FDT tried to run a Rose Garden campaign) there will be one or two good choices early this next primary season. The issue is going to be that every democrap in MASS will be voting for the lamest POS on the republican ballot. Same for the Iowa carcasses.

The GOP really needs to reform the primary system and take some of the power away from NH and Iowa. Why do we want RINO’s and Libs picking our candidates? Look what it got us this time.

"By the way, it is entirely plausible that this is a DEM action to strangle the baby in the crib before it gets stronger and poses a real threat in 2012."

And kill two birds with one stone. Cast dispersions on both Palin and Romney. The journalists have proven they fabricate lies, then broadcast them as truth ad naseum until the ignorant populace believes.

Since you smell so well, who is that supporter? Casting dispersions with no proof does not help the conservative cause -- it is a useful tool the left deftly uses to divide the conservative movement.
