Mitt Romney has outspent Newt Gingrich on negative advertising in every state, starting in Iowa, and was the first to go negative every time.
Yet Romney, with absolute conviction, continues to say that the reason he lost South Carolina was that he was outspent by Newt, which is not true.
Last night on Hannity, Romney took the false line about being outspent in South Carolina to a new level, claiming that he lost because he stayed positive and failed to respond to attacks on him (video, at 6:20)(embed added at link):
Romney: … The mistake I made in South Carolina was just focusing all of my effort on Barack Obama. And at the same time my opponents were going after me and hitting me pretty hard and I was standing above the fray, focusing on…
Hannity: That doesn’t work.
Romney: You know what it didn’t work. So we came to Florida and I said you know, enough is enough. If you’re going to attack me I’m going to respond, and I’m going to answer the attacks with truth. And if you don’t like that why that’s just the way it’s going to be.
It’s just not true. It’s not even close to true. It’s not even on the same planet as true.

Blech.
Mitt is nothing but Barry lite.
He’s a liar hiding behind a fig leaf of truth. Prior to Florida, the vast bulk of Romney’s negative campaigning came from the Super PACs, so in typical Romney fashion, he can stand there and pretend his hands are clean while his surrogates are cavorting in the mud.
Romnuts lies more than President Grim Reaper...
This sounds like voodoo magic-The man is becoming more creepy. He insults us as we see him speaking these untruths. Some religion he has. Lies are ok.
think about how easy he will lie as CIC. (just a thought)
Check out what our favorite candidate is saying........
Did you get a new t shirt today? Do you want one. Posting this thread certainly earns you one. I give you one any way.......
Why is Bishop Willard Mitt Romney not using his title? What is he trying to hide? Do we want the elder of any faith to serve as President? Would we want a Catholic, Anglican, Methodist Bishop serving as president? Is it even constitutional? We need to have this conversation now!
Whatever! REMEMBER THE OBJECTIVE; a ham sammich is OK as long as Ojummumbo is defeated. Quit pickin’ on everything AND FOCUS!
If we are lucky he is Barry-Lite; but I fear he is Barry-Heavy.
You might want to focus on that buzzing sound.
Mitt “It’s Not My Fault” Obama
Romney has to be stopped.
GO NEWT!
Ah! I hadn’t thought about that angle.
I just know when I heard him make that statement I was incredulous.
Mitt reminds me of Eddie Haskel.
Newt made a pretty good case about Romney's, um, shortcomings, comparing him to Obozo point-by-point.
