If the rumor tonight is true—that Romney got Donehue fired—I can’t help but wonder what that does to any claim of deniability.
But I don’t know if that rumor is true.
As for Rudy, heh heh, his name is mud.
“If the rumor tonight is truethat Romney got Donehue firedI cant help but wonder what that does to any claim of deniability. But I dont know if that rumor is true.”
Its pretty clear now that the Romney campaign had no knowledge nor direct involvement in this website up front. Once they got wind of it via news reports, they did what they could to distance from it and get it shut down.
This rumor if true only confirms that Romney campaign really didn’t approve, and really wants to put it to bed, since the only way that would happen would be for Romney to pressure Tomkins to fire Donehue if he wanted to stay connected to Romney’s campaign.
It’s funny how first things out some FredHeads were insisting that the Romney campaign needed to do X but when X happens, they are perplexed rather than pleased.
