So, this could be an elaborate hoax by someone trying to take a poke at Romney, but if these images are in any way a representation of the truth - wow!

I told you - the video has been confirmed by the station in Boston that took the video.

Are you going to tell everyone here, that if the "Glove don't fit - you Must Aquit!"

I guess you didn't scroll down and read it:

"Reply I called News 5 ABC in Boston, whose cameraman is there on the right and they confirmed that these are in fact paid Romney staffers - not volunteers and not plants. That they would do this in front of cameras just shows how dirty and brazen these people have become. Unreal. Call for yourself to verify…. Coupled with allegations that the “Thompson will bow to McCain” rumor also emanated from the Romney campaign, I would say this does not bode well for Romney. This is, to my thinking, more damaging to a campaign than simply rigging your audience participants, as Hillary has done. Mitt needs to either out these allegations as false or jump with both feet on his staffers and get this stuff done and gone. It will only get worse if no action is taken now.

I am not a Romney supporter at all. There were two camera men there. There is no way that someone would violate federal election law intentionally and have cameras there. It’s rediculous.

I’m guessing it was after the primary and everyone was removing the signs (by law) and it’s being used out of context.

Are you a McCain Supporter?

I call BS on this claim. There is no mention of it on the WCVB site, and you can be sure that this would have been splashed all over if it were true.

This a like a classic urban legend, with references to reputable sources (WCVB). The camera shots look amateurish, not done by a professional.

And you trust the News 5 ABC in that wonderful city of Boston for any kind of truth. Wow, you are fantastic.

I told you - the video has been confirmed by the station in Boston...

Well gee, if this Boston TV station thought it was such an awful offense, THEY themselves would have done a story about it.

Guess the TV station either didn't think it so bad, or they didn't believe it to be relevant.

I worked in many a news organization, and believe me, if they thought they could make hay with such a video, they would have been splashing it across the universe with banner bold headlines.

But since they aren't ......
