Political Insider: Robo-call war begins: Rick Santorum says Mitt Romney wrote ‘personal checks, funding Planned Parenthood’.........."My AJC colleague Daniel Malloy says this article, originally the work of the Boston Globe [May 10, 2007], is likely the basis for Santorum’s accusation:

"As abortion continues to define the Republican presidential primary, Mitt Romney’s campaign said Wednesday that Romney’s wife, Ann, made a $150 contribution to Planned Parenthood in 1994, the year Romney ran for Senate as a candidate supporting abortion rights.

Romney spokesman Kevin Madden said Ann Romney does not remember whether it was a straight donation to the abortion rights group, which supports abortion rights, or whether she wrote the check as an admission fee for an event.

“Since it was so long ago, Ann has no information of the circumstances,” he said.

Madden confirmed the payment in response to a question from the Globe."

Those robo-calls sound like more of a negative thing than positive.

Does anyone do anything other than hang up on these calls or delete them, unlistened-to, from the answering machine?

Just the first robocall? You’re lucky. I expect my answering machine to be filled with them by when I get home tonight. I almost changed my message to tell my friends to call my cell phone and set it so it doesn’t record anything.

No Robo-calls here in Alabama, but in the last 10 days we have recieved SEVEN Mitt Romney mailings and a Ron Paul door hanger. Nothing from Newt or Rick yet.

DO my eyes deceive me? Is this actually a thread attacking Rick Santorum and defending Mitt ROmney against a truthful robo-Call?

BTW, the article is apparently false.

Gingrich Robo-Call Labels Santorum "Union Bosses Pal"

But maybe you meant this is the first Robocall that attacks Mitt Romney. Although again, I don't know why you, as a Newt supporter, are upset about Santorum attacking Romney.

I remember a time when we wanted to stop Mitt Romney.

Too bad Gingrich's Robocall doesn't attack Mitt Romney. Or maybe that's part of the master plan?
