Look, if you want to defend Romney, who pushed for gay marriage and gov't healthcare in Massachusetts and who spoke out against the Boy Scouts for not allowing gay scoutmasters into the organization, and then essentially banned them from the Olympics, you go ahead and defend him.
Palin is Romney's biggest threat to the nomination in 2012. He is useless to the Republican Party unless we want a repeat of 2008.
Is there 100% proof that Romney is behind the attacks on Palin? No.
But if you want to defend a RINO, feel free. You should join the Giuliani ranks that were kicked out of FR.
