One comment on the Romney Ad
&feature=player_embeddedOne of the legislators talks about Romney's no tax promise and that it didn't work there. In fact, his promise did work there when you realize what he wanted from the promise.
It got him elected.End of story. That's what he got out of it.
Oh, what did the folks in Massachusetts get out of it? Nothing.
You see the promise was not made for the benefit of Mass. It was for the benefit of Romney.
Republicans are all about getting elected.
Governing? Not so much.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
