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. Romney’s campaign team. The Wall Street Journal said in an editorial that the campaign “looks confused in addition to being politically dumb.”

Flashback:

Red State and other reporters accuse Romney staffers, including Kevin Madden (former Romney press-man) of pushing reporters into “Troopergate” stories

Team Romney - One step forward and three steps back.

I think I am beginning to see a pattern...

I’ll just wait and see. Perhaps he can effectively attack 0bama the way he attacked Palin. I don’t care about his perception of Palin. I care more about whether he’s an effective staff or not. With his comments on etch-a-sketch and Obamacare, Eric F is not.

[MasterGunner01]

Given Mittens bad choices so far we need to take him out at the convention.

[jimbo123]

Madden is a cowardly misogynist piece of dog feces who only smears conservatives.

[Josephat]

Pray that will happen.

[freeangel]

‘Just another reason to dislike this RINO god.

[KevinDavis]

Yes how dare someone questions St Sarah, the quitter from Alaska..

[Timber Rattler]

Check this nonsense out.

[Timber Rattler]

One week prior to the general election, former Romney spokesman Kevin Madden took to the airwaves (on CNN) and defamed Sarah Palin, setting off a media storm over an alleged fight between Team McCain and Team Palin

Even more reason why I'll never vote for Team Romney.

[Timber Rattler]

It looks like there might be some truth to those rumors former Mitt Romney supporters are already trying to clear Sarah Palin from the GOP presidential deck to make room for their man Mitt in 2012.

We all knew it then...this just confirms it.

[muawiyah]

This is Romney. It can ONLY get worse, and then worse than that, and then again.

This guy has to make up for a 10 million voter difference between Republican and Democrat candidates in 2008.

Instead, he's working himself into a deep dive that keeps up with Obama all the way down.

I think it's a lack of fire in the belly.

He should step aside now.

[Timber Rattler]

Yes how dare someone questions St Sarah, the quitter from Alaska..

Sarah Palin has done far more for Conservatism than Romney ever has or will.

So STUFF IT!

[KevinDavis]

At least he completed his term as Governor.. So you stuff it..

[muawiyah]

Can anybody trace that church fire to Madden or someone close to him?

[muawiyah]

Doing my best to dispell such beliefs ~ maybe i should double-down.

[muawiyah]

We don’t need your kind around here.

[Timber Rattler]

At least he completed his term as Governor..

Unfortunately...

[KevinDavis]

Then have me banned you idiot.. I dare you...

[muawiyah]

Sounds like Madden may have had more than a passing interest in the phoney made up ethics charges that were lodged against Sarah ~ apparently with the intention of bankrupting her.

Then, Romney pulls this Mittbot up from the bottom of the barrel for another go at it?

You people have no shame.
