Stolen Romney Delegate

Here’s the story. Chuck Todd, neutral observer that he is, Tweeted that it seems highly suspicious. Dan Gainor Tweets that the Romneyites look like “a bunch of crooks.” Matt Lewis: “seems sketchy.” Ohio Sec of State and former US Sen Mike DeWine, now for Santorum, formerly committed to Romney, sasys Romney team “will do anything and say anything,” and blasts the move. 

A former Michigan state AG WHO SUPPORTS ROMNEY, Mike Cox, also blasts the stealing of the delegate…. Gen’l COunsel of Mich GOP who actually writes the rules also opposed the theft…..

If Romney team has ANY integrity, AND any PR sense, they will ask the Mich Party to recant and go back to the former understanding. A single delegate isn’t worth dirty pool like this, and isn’t worth the PR black eye that should attach to those who use such strong-arm, insider tactics…..

Dave Weigel jokes that we should call this scandal “Dele-Gate.” Great line!

Santorum team says it has already sent a document to the RNC protesting this change….

“We think this speaks more to the [unfairness of] the actions themselves than to the delegate itself,” says a Santorum guy (a Sec of State, although I’m not sure from which state)…..

Quin. You are beclowning yourself.

Sir, Quinnn made a complete clown of himself with his crusade to villify Newt. Like him or not he certainly has the right to his opinion.

The issue arose from the low grade journalism produced by Quinnn. TAS is in steady decline & that is bad news.

Thought you said Romney's folks wrote the rules.

Do tell...

The person referred to IS a Romney supporter -- one of the honest ones.

Seems to me, romney is trying to demonstrate that he is just as petty as obama is....or even more so.

I'm not sure it's possible, but he's giving it a "severe" try!

Shows not only misjudgment but desperation by the Romney folks. A bonanza for Santorum.
