If the site was independent of Mitt, then how did Mitt see to it that it was taken down so quickly?
The guy was a supporter. Although I think one report said the site was taken down as soon as it was reported about, so it could be the supporter realised he had screwed up for Romney, or more likely Romney contacted Thompson who asked his partner who took it down.
I am just amazed that so many people think it unbelievable that the Donahue could have done this without his partner knowing about it. They think that these campaign consultants spend all their days sitting around watching their partners to make sure they don’t do anything bad.
My guess is that Thomas might not have even SEEN his partner for weeks, if Thomas is running around the state lining up support and donors and setting up action committees.
Where I wrote “Thomas” I meant “Tompkins”. Sorry.
