Kevin Madden, a Republican communications expert with long ties to Mitt Romney, will become a more frequent and visible spokesman for the presidential campaign, a source close to the decision said on Friday.
The increased responsibilities for Mr. Madden came in the wake of criticism from nervous Republicans about Mr. Romneys campaign team. The Wall Street Journal said in an editorial that the campaign looks confused in addition to being politically dumb.

IF Palin was attacked? LOL!! I see you are just crawling out from under your PDS rock that you can make a dumba** statement like that - "IF" she was attacked. The WORLD knows what you are pretending you don't!
You should at least 'try' to be more subtle in showing your contempt for a conservative!! Make that a beautiful one, a very successful one, a world wide known one, creme de la creme one - I KNOW how that grates you, hope it stings real good!! Put some of the romney LIBERAL salve on it. Of course, at YOUR OWN RISK.
I have MANY times - every time I'm on a thread and SARAH is mentioned, "that altura kind" has a front row seat acting clueless, then does the usual backpedal about liking Sarah when he's taken on. I could almost write altura posts, acting like is not aware, then the zingers, then the backpedal, then more rant. Flip flopping all the way through. Did I mention dumb as rocks? All signs of liberalism.
Why, you are TOO busy on the PALIN threads so you can regurgitate the Romney rant that you stuffed yourself with out of his toilet bowl. Do you swallow the maggots whole or chew them?
WAKE UP, MITT!!! IF you want to WIN, GO CONSERVATIVE!!!
Uh, she's not running for anything - not even dog catcher.
KD - the Palin protectorate is out in full force supporting a ghost.

Mitt is like McCain who was like Dole. All three suffer from the same ego driven disease. Mitt has as much “fire in the belly” as an Eskimo’s snowball, much like his predecessors on this same path.
Given Mitt's track record, it's not beyond the realm of possibility that "the boss" was floundering around deciding which side he's on and Fehrnstrom missed the latest memo!
IIRC (I'm from MA) he was basically MIA the second half of his term because he was campaigning for President. IMO the state would have been better off if he'd resigned to run and given his Lt. Gov. a leg up -- which might have saved us from Deval!
Heh, you have no idea about what you're talking about.
Selectively short memory.
Are you from MA? I ask because several conservatives and FReepers have told me independently that Mitt was a big improvement over previous governors and the current occupant.
They also indicated that government universal healthcare was coming to MA no matter what and that Romney made it more palatable. He faced two solidly Democrat and liberal state houses, along with a judiciary that isn’t one to see the Constitution or conservatism ever. Many of the positions he took regarding MA healthcare were at the time espoused by conservatives and the Heritage Foundation.
It’s just like being a conservative in Cook County, IL. If you want to rant and crab stick to your guns and never compromise. You’ll be guaranteed a “clean” conscience and 100% liberalism. If you want to move the cause forward then you’ll have to compromise, but the net result is less liberalism.
It seems that we judge people like Monday morning quarterbacks too often. We’re happy to sit in our stool moaning and righteous, but never run, never get elected and never rule.
Yeah, within a day of McCain choosing Palin to be his VP running mate, Romney's people were out talking to their MSM accomplices suggesting that Palin was unqualified for VP and that she should excuse herself from the VP slot to make way for Romney. This was after McCain selected her but BEFORE the convention, a three or four day period. I believe that Kathleen Parker was the witch who volunteered to float that particularly nasty balloon for Team Romney. And has already been posted, Erick Erickson got wind of it, and Madden was ID'd as the hatchet man.
I'm from MA and I found Mitt a constant disappointment -- of course, it was kind of confusing to follow exactly what was going on because of his penchant for saying one thing and doing another!
As I recall, he was solidly for RomneyCare. He was, after all, the governor, which even in a liberal state would have given him a bully pulpit, if he had chosen to use it. He didn't even pretend to have reservations -- and loudly voiced reservations, even if ineffective, would look a lot better on his record if he wants to pretend to be a conservative.
It just shows you the true character of Mitt Romney. He is a true POS.
Mitt’s campaign staff is in chaos.
Matt Drudge is mad at Matt Rhoades for going off and marrying a girl a couple weeks ago.
Eric Fehrnstrom would rather go on PMSNBC and CNN and say stupid things so his fellow Boston liberals won’t disown him.
Beth Myers has decided that Chris Christie is going to be the VP pick, yet Ann Romney doesn’t want him and wants Mitt to pick a woman.
Amateur hour, once again from Mittens and the GOP-e.
romney is an evil man and anyone surrounding him in his inner circle will be no less evil. obama and romney are more alike than the apologists for the gop communists that love them some romney... that reside here on FR would openly admit. None are as blind as those that refuse to see.
LLS
Wrong.
How about a little truth, FRiend.
Mr. RomneyCARE made Massachusetts (previously amongst
the first) almost dead last in the USA
even while he personally installed his visions
of RomneyMarriage AND RomneyCARE.
Since you regard this all as an ‘improvement’,
one notes that you are as far from ‘conservative’
as the backstabbing, lying Democat known
as Myth Romney.
I suggest that you go back to the 2008 and 2009 Palin threads of that period and you will see exactly how vicious and underhanded Romney's flying monkeys were in trying to remove her from the GOP picture because of the existential threat she posed to both Romney and the GOP-E.
I find it hilarious that people now want to selectively forget about all of that in order to carry water now for Romney.
Never forget! Their war against Palin was also a war against us!
Yep, remember Erickson’s “leper list?”
