That's been the modus operandi of the Romney Sleaze Machine since day one.
Hoist by your own petard.

Jawohl.
I’m sorry, you didn’t.
At one time or another, I would have agreed with McCain on just about everything listed. Since then, I've learned better. Romney acknowledges past mistakes, something I don't think McCain ever does.
Hoist by your own petard, and I'm loving it.
She did not. Someone who talked to her claims she “fully supports” him IN HER PRIVATE LIFE. And also that she does NOT want to say anything publicly.
Thompson Effect [tomp-son ef-fect] –noun: 1. Syn: Aesop’s fable concerning the tortoise and the hare, q.v., with Thompson being the tortoise. 2. An unwise political strategy involving dilly-dallying on deciding to run while your opponents are out shaking the hands of voters and running commercials. 3. –verb: To do something stupid, in a political sense, involving an unwise strategy involving the delay of execution of a political strategic plan. Candidate Ritter delayed announcing his candidacy too long, and pulled a Thompson when his voters all went for his opponent.

“I do know that the point has nothing to do with whether a particular man is qualified to be President.”
The “I will crush the chances of anyone but my candidate, even if it destroys the republican party and the conservative movement in the process, people” are busy throwing spagetti against the wall.
Last Clear Chance.
Vote for Mitt.
Stop McCain.
Stop Amnesty.
Or you get what you deserve.

Thanks for the ping.
No she didn’t, you, like McCain, have a problem with accuracy.
McCain is the author of the most brazen assault on free speech in the modern area. That’s just the first item on McCain’s extensive list. Romney’s blemishes and/or flip-flops don’t hold a candle to McCain’s 8 years of incessant treachery.
I really wish some of you guys would reconsider what you’re doing. At the very least, dedicate as much of your time and effort to taking down the man who’s declared war on conservatism and has surrounded himself with likeminded crusaders (like Giuliani, Schwarzenegger, Martinez, Crist, Hernandez, Perry, etc.).
In his personal and business life I can’t think of a better candidate than Romney. No divorces. No marriages to millionairs(so Kerryesque)like McCain. No accusations of dishonesty in his business dealings. No accusations of dishonesty in his political dealings. He has always done what he said he would do. He hasn’t even failed.
Frankly, that is a whitewash.

Give me a break.
“Let’s get the largely unspoken part of this out the way first. McCain is an intemperate, stubborn individual, much like Hillary Clinton. These are not good qualities to have in a president. As I watched him last night, I could see his personal contempt for Mitt Romney roiling under the surface. And why? Because Romney ran campaign ads that challenged McCain’s record? Is this the first campaign in which an opponent has run ads questioning another candidate’s record? That’s par for the course. To the best of my knowledge, Romney’s ads have not been personal. He has not even mentioned the Keating-Five to counter McCain’s cheap shots. But the same cannot be said of McCain’s comments about Romney.

Last night McCain, who is the putative frontrunner, resorted to a barrage of personal assaults on Romney that reflect more on the man making them than the target of the attacks. McCain now has a habit of describing Romney as a “manager for profit” and someone who has “laid-off” people, implying that Romney is both unpatriotic and uncaring. Moreover, he complains that Romney is using his “millions” or “fortune” to underwrite his campaign. This is a crass appeal to class warfare. McCain is extremely wealthy through marriage. Romney has never denigrated McCain for his wealth or the manner in which he acquired it. Evidently Romney’s character doesn’t let him to cross certain boundaries of decorum and decency, but McCain’s does. And what of managing for profit? When did free enterprise become evil? This is liberal pablum which, once again, could have been uttered by Hillary Clinton.
