Should we beat them who make faux pas every few hours with a rehash press release for days?
That was no faux paus - that was a blatant mischaracterization by Mitt of Reagan's views on abortion while he was governor.
Some Rudy boosters also have attempted the same thing, and for the exact same reason - to bring down Reagan a notch in the hopes it somehow makes their guy look better. But such an attempt is wrong. Reagan was never pro-choice and never in favor of abortion on demand. The legislation he signed allowed for legal abortion in cases of rape, incest and the health of the mother. Doctors abused that last provision.
At least they don’t have to hide Mitt in a golf cart only to emerge periodically for show. That’s a candidate with something to hide. As soon as he opens his mouth you know why.
