Down at the March for Life here in DC, we've been seeing lots of support for Sen. Sam Brownback. Brownback's campaign has been aggresive in pushing materials to marchers, and why not? Former Gov. Mitt Romney is being attacked in a series of handouts we've seen. Some are clearly coming from Brownback supporters, others seem to be nonaligned, but definitely anti-Romney. Romney could have blown all of this out of the water by simply showing up and marching with his fellow citizens. A single march does not a convert make, but it would have communicated to conservative voters that he was willing to make a commitment of time and energy and publicity to show where he stood. We haven't seen him, nor is there talk that he is here freezing his feet off with the rest of us. Too bad. A good, missed opportunity.
