That's a tempting conclusion to draw, but was it widely known that Mitt Romney was going to be a presidential candidate when the movie was greenlighted?
~”That’s a tempting conclusion to draw, but was it widely known that Mitt Romney was going to be a presidential candidate when the movie was greenlighted?”~
That’s a valid point; the point I make is that the movie was -held- after production in order to harm Romney. It could easily have been released a year ago - it was shot in ‘05.
Romney’s pending candidacy was well known a year ago.
Hugh Hewitt details the DNC attack machine back in 2004 requesting all public records about Romney from birth until the resent in preparation for his possible presidential run. They came up with a list and his name was on top. To date they have hit him more than any other candidate. So that the movie was made in 05 a year after the DNC started their opposition research on him may or may not be connected but it is plausible.
