The Mitt revolution begins
American Spectator reports that Mitt Romney supporters are at the center of the leaks that are driving the anti-Sarah Palin split in the McCain campaign. Says one former Mitt aide, now with McCain-Palin:
She is a lightweight, she won't be the first, not even the third, person people will think of when it comes to 2012.The only serious candidate ready to challenge to lead the Republican Party is Mitt Romney. He's in charge on November 5th.Though Romney has traveled extensively for GOP congressional candidates around the country, he has done little for the McCain-Palin ticket. According to a McCain communications aide:
He said the only time he'd travel for us is if we assured him that national cameras would be there. He's traveled to Nevada and a couple other states for us. That's about it.As insane as it sounds, Mitt is apparently eager to begin another four-year campaign grind.

Romney and Huntsman should campaign together. They could share the same tanning bed (not at the same time of course).
The story cites no sources, it names no names, therefore it's not journalism.
The source is given right away in the first sentence. Plus it's a blog, not a news article. Blogs are just side opinions and columns to get more eyeballs to come back to the web site.
If the source is given right away perhaps you can tell me his or her name. No name, no source for the quote.
I wonder what would have happened if the Republican primaries had been conducted the same way as the Democratic primaries where state delegates were proportionally allotted rather by 'winner take all'. Would John McCain still have come out as the presidential candidate?
Let's hope Mittens takes over the Republican Party and turns it into an irrelevant Mormon ghetto.
Bottom line, the Republicans will generally only win when they stay true to their values: small government, strict constructionist judges, low taxes, no redistribution of wealth. Mitt better start pounding that in from day one. The Democrats will only win when they're able to obscure their values: big government, judges legislating from the bench, high taxes, and redistribution of wealth. Obama has done this well and will probably therefore win. McCain has been all over the place trying to be everything to everybody, thereby squandering his opportunity.
