The others weren’t really rumors, they were leaks from actual conversations, and based on reality.
This is a rumor based on a statement about a major endorsement, and the fact that at one point both candidates were scheduled to be in the same place.
I hope for the Maryland folk’s sake that Romney decides to show up, because he’s a good speaker and a fine man to hear from.
I can’t attend our Lincoln/Reagan dinner on Saturday, but I had heard a candidate was going to show up, and not knowing who it was I was worried I’d miss a good chance to meet Romney.
