(Unconfirmed Vanity) Fox News Reports: Romney Campaign blamed for planting false story on Thompson D

Vanity Shepard Smith's Biography ^ | Jan 03,2008 | Fox News

[Maelstorm]

I was just watching FoxNews Shepard Smith. The Romney campaign is being fingered as the source for the phony story about the drop out.

One of the Romney jerks is on making snide remarks.

>>One of the Romney jerks is on making snide remarks.<<

That’s Mat Blunt, Republican Governor of Missouri and he sure did sound evasive and took the opportunity for a personal attack on Fred. He really came across sleazy.

Let's see if you were right.

Take a look at these links - seems that the rumour started on the 1st link - then look at the second link for the ties....

“Romney guy said they did not do it, they did not even know Fred had gotten in the race.”

LOL, that’s actually a funny come-back from the Romney camp.

Who I think is behind any last-minute dirty tricks:

Democrats: The Clintonistas, of course
GOP: The Huckster or Ron Paul supporters

Ha! Comment of the day! Well, not really, too substantial a day for that, but still...

[djf]

Romney is slicker than slug slime.

I wouldn’t trust that guy as far as I could throw him!
Hillary-lite.

[kevkrom]

Mitt plays dirty.

Romney has surrogates who play dirty for him, while he maintains his plausible deniability.

If those surrogates are exposed, they are expendable and thus join the growing legions of people he throws under the bus.

[Miss Didi]

I think you are referring to Nina Easton...she appears often on the Panel and always announces that her husband is a Romney adviser.

Who is the only Rep candidate running negative ads?
Romney

[Political Junkie Too]

Shephard Smith talking to the Romney guy, calls Thompson "the actor" when trying to get the Romney spokesperson to admit knowledge.

[Jeff Chandler]

What’s surprising is how much Shep looks like a young Leona Helmsly in that picture.

[Petronski]

It won’t make much difference for Willard at this late hour.

His automotonic sleaze army will still win the organizational battle on the ground in Iowa.

[Earthdweller]

Double mint...

[VegasBaby]

Another garbage accusation. Everything’s always Romney’s fault...he gets attacked by an underhanded campaign tactic—HE DID IT TO HIMSELF! Another candidate gets attacked by an underhanded campaign tactic—ROMNEY DID THAT TOO!!!

Notice a trend??? *rolls eyes*

Thanks ...

What is horrible is that someone saw fit to plant the false story last night. They have been doing this since last week. It is the media talking points someone has been feeding the news channels while McCain is being talked up Fred who has maintained or gained has been continued talked about as dropping out. I’m tired of it. What is wrong with the party of Reagan?

[mnehring]

You can leave Jason commnets on his original ‘leak’ story.. :->

So Romney turns out to be exactly the filthy liar we thought he was.

[TornadoAlley3]

It’s all good. Fred got lots of face time on TV/radio today to deny it and speak further. Voters know he is IN. Romney camp looks bad. Media looks bad.

[mnehring]

Huckabee’s little trick of not running negative by showing everyone I think counts too.
