You Fred supporters can really dish it out with your incessant cries of "Romney is buying his vitories" but let one Romney supporter say the same exact thing about Fred See... there's this little thing called evidence that you may want to consider. Romney hasn't exactly been shy or secretive about pumping large amounts of money into winning straw polls (e.g., booking every bus in Iowa to prevent other candidates from being able to bus in supporters and busing in senior citizens to vote in a straw poll by the Florida Young Republicans).
He's been lavishing dishing out money to conservative groups while seeking their endorsements. groups he's never contributed to before, mind you, nor similar ones either. In some cases, they were groups that had previously opposed him.
No such track record exists for Thompson, so the cases are not comparable. Weyrich's comments reek of projection -- what was his price?

Yup, that is the difference. There is NO evidence that Fred bought, or even attempted to buy, the NRTL endorsement but there is a boatload of evidence that Romney is trying to buy the election.
But Mittheads don't need evidence to support their ridiculous accusations, there was one Mitthead post on another thread saying that the NRTL supported Fred because they are anti-Mormon......LOL! I guess if you throw out the "bought" accusation you would have to resort to the "bigot" accusation to fill the Romney crybaby void.

Seriously? If true, that's pretty underhanded.
