Romney shelled out millions in 2004 to assist Massachusetts Republicans, all he got in return was a loss of two seats in the State House. He finanically supported the most candidates the Republican Party had put up since 1994. So, when 2006 came around, and these same pathetic candidates ran, Romney decided to send his money to Republicans elsewhere in the nation that were actually credible candidates and could win. I dont see what is wrong about that.
That's significant information. However, I'd want Romney to make some contributions, whether personal or from his fund, to some Massachusetts Republican candidates (Chafee types excepted) even if they had no chance of winning. From the story, it looks like he gave to a few but not many. It would be interesting to know more detail.
