It’s old.
It’s an article from the last election cycle, when the media was actually worried Mitt might beat Obama.
Evidently that is no longer the case. Or more likely, the “journo-list” liberals have agreed to hold this sort of article until Romney is forced upon us.
I’m going with the latter.
Exactly. This story will definitely re-surface when the media gets the signal from Axelrod to go after Mitt. It’s the kind of story that will resonate with non-political types. Lots of people love their dogs. If the story is true, what Mitt did was really stupid and borderline cruel.
