Romney Campaign, Then and Now

"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."

-- Mitt Romney, quoted by Greg Sargent earlier this month.

"We're not going to let our campaign be dictated by fact checkers."

-- Romney pollster Neil Newhouse, quoted by BuzzFeed this morning, after it was pointed out that fact checkers say the Romney campaign's welfare attacks on President Obama are not true.

1. If Obama campaigned like that:

Governor Romney's secret plan to have the Commonwealth of Massachusetts secede and become part of Canada

All Romney's cabinet picks must be approved by Mormon prophet

Romney's secret plan to make Mormonism the offical US religion

Bain Capital responsible for selling chemical weapons to Syria, Iraq and nuclear technology to Iran

Romney pays more taxes to France than to the US: is he really American?
