Mischievous Mitt
Mitt Romney has an outrageous polling lead in Utah, where he is the next best thing to a native son. But his GOP primary fortunes could change when word gets out that he confessed to something unspeakable for a Republican — he voted for Democrats.romneyvotepic.jpg
Yes, Romney, who paints John McCain as a liberal, copped in Long Beach, Calif., to voting Big D — but claimed he’d always vote GOP if there was a Republican on the ballot. (Too bad we have the secret ballot in this country...)

In Massachusetts, voters can choose to vote in the Democratic or Republican primary, and Mitt said he sometimes voted "tactically" for Democrats. Apparently he believes all is fair in love and politics (and who doesn't?):

“Those of you from Massachusetts know that sometimes there’s no contest on the Republican side in a primary, so you pull the Democratic ballot and you make mischief.”
