I think it's safe to say Mitt Romney's campaign is regretting the ad it produced that took Obama's words completely out of context. It seems that ever since that ad, the DNC has been taking direct aim at Romney. What Romney did would have been like McCain hammering Obama on Bill Ayers and Jeremiah Wright before locking up the nomination.
In 2008, the Democrats / liberal media wanted to run against McCain. Once McCain became the nominee, they went after him. Before Romney's ad that dissed Obama, he was shaping up to be the DNC's John McCain in 2012 - left alone until getting the nomination. Instead, it appears that Romney kicked a sleeping dog with that ad and the DNC is coming after him with both barrels.
Tea Party conservatives who are searching for the Not-Romney candidate are welcoming these attacks with open arms. The DNC is now promoting Romney as the John Kerry of 2004 on steroids... and they're right, which is an amazing thing to hear myself say.
Anyway, here's the latest from the DNC:
Almost as good is this exchange between Fox's Bret Baier and Romney in which the former challenges the latter on his 2007 immigration stance versus the stance he took after Newt Gingrich seemed to echo it.
Baier shines a spotlight on Mitt the flip-flopper here.
