Well I guess the Washington (Com)Post is doing Romney a big favor. With this sloppy hit piece that is so easily debunked, they are serving to insulate Romney against further smear campaigns that the Obama campaign are no doubt contemplating for the general campaign.

I think the WP is certainly doing Romney a favor with this piece -- shoring him up against the rumblings of discontent from the conservative base! The last thing they want is conservatives to somehow prevent Romney from being the nominee. Watch for more trying to paint Romney as a social conservative -- which he definitely is NOT!

It's still over three months away from the GOP convention and the mainstream media/Obama campaign have already shot their wad.

No, they're saving their big guns for after Romney's official coronation. OWS will then make a real comeback (I think that last little flutter was shut down by the Dems as jumping the gun) and they'll pull out all their Bain stories as companion pieces. I'm afraid the lapdog networks will also seriously go after Mormonism, in blatant hit pieces thinly disguised as "documentaries to further public knowledge."

But the last thing they want to do is go after Romney before it's official lest they themselves bring about a brokered GOP convention and risk having to face a real conservative!

You got it — you’re spot on. Also, see my post #53. And I feel like an idiot for asking, but ... what is OWS?
