To be fair, Romney, who was a good candidate in 2008, has become an excellent one in 2012.

I see the Romney campaign FedEx'd a new pair of kneepads to Mona. Her old ones had to be wearing out from overuse.

Romney was a crappy candidate in 2008 and nothing has changed. He still flip-flops. Still shows no core principles other than his own pursuit of power. Maybe a Beltway hack like Mona thinks that's not a big deal. But for those of us in the hinterlands who thinks words should have meaning, well, it tells us all we need to know about Romney. And Mona.

Yeah, I thought she was better than that -- so many columns over the years ruminating on social issues and coming down on the side of social conservatives. Maybe she's getting Peggy-Noonanish in middle age?
