Thompson Campaign Attacks Romney
Email
ShareDecember 07, 2007 6:36 PM
ABC News' Jake Tapper Reports: Teeing off Romney's "faith" speech Thursday, the campaign of Fred Thompson today called Mitt Romney a "Believer of Convenience" and assailed his new campaign ad.
The Thompson campaign cited a host of media reviews of Romney's new ad -- in which he says he stood against abortion and same sex marriage and for things that were "politically incorrect" in Massachusetts.
Thompson's minions did so to portray Romney as a flip-flopper on social issues, including a charge that the ad "engages in revisionist history" (Washington Post) and "outlines positions that may renew charges of flip-flopping" (New York Times).
The campaign quoted Romney's speech, in which the former Massachusetts Governor said "Americans do not respect believers of convenience. Americans tire of those who would jettison their beliefs, even to gain the world."
Added the Thompson campaign, with snark, "We Couldn't Agree More."
