Now why oh why would Romney possibly be choosing this time, ahead of the RNC (which is when it is usually done) to announce such a thing?
It couldn't just be a distraction from these three days of solid asswhooping he's taken, could it?
Two Days ago:
The Andrea Saul blunder went Viral and every conservative from Rush Limpballs to party insiders are saying that Romney's Campaign is a Disaster:
Romney Spokeswoman Andrea Saul Touts Romneycare In Fox News Spot - Business Insider
Poll: Should Republicans Dump Romney? - YouTube
All the media channels are talking about that fuckup. If R$ fires Saul he'll look heartless. If he doesn't, he'll look like he's shagging her. Oh this is good stuff you couldn't plan for if you tried!
Yesterday:
Governor Paul LePage Threatens RNC Boycott If Maine Ron Paul Delegates Are Not Seated
(Pretty much all delegates minus Gov Le Page himself are Liberty delegates in Maine. The GOP told them that they were not allowed at the RNC because they didn't swear an oath of loyalty to Romney. (Otherwise that would make a 5th state for Paul delegate majorities, and it takes 5 to Nominate someone @ the RNC.)
And Today:
Polls shows that Obama's pulling up away sharply from R$ because of it all.
Romney had no chance at all before.
Now he has no chance
of even Appearing like he has a chance.
If only all of this stuff had happened at a more opportune moment for the Paul camp, say, like just a couple of weeks before the RNC...
