Quotes of the Day

“We’re not going to let our campaign be dictated by fact-checkers.” Romney pollster Neil Newhouse

Oh. I see. Don’t let facts get in the way of scoring political points. Gotcha.

“You know, in the past, when people pointed out that something was inaccurate, why, campaigns pulled the ad. They were embarrassed. Today, they just blast ahead. You know, the various fact checkers look at some of these charges in the Obama ads and they say that they’re wrong, and inaccurate, and yet he just keeps on running them.” Mitt Romney

Romney is not embarrassed.
