Without any endorsement news today Romney pooh-poohed the Brownback and Robertson endorsements and took a shot at Rudy in South Carolina declaring: “I don’t think the Republican Party will choose a pro-choice, pro-gay civil union candidate to lead our party.” That was a pretty gutsy comment coming from someone who held pro-gay rights and pro-choice views as late as 2005. It was also an inviting a target for the Rudy folks who responded through spokeswoman Maria Comella: “It would seem someone forgot to show Mitt Romney today’s USA/Gallup survey. It’s clear that Republicans across the board are supporting the experienced candidate who actually sticks with his positions and has used Conservative principles to actually get results.”
