Were you aware who Mitt Romney's spokesperson is?
Now that Fred is gone, I want to see who Mary Matalin and Liz Cheney slither to.

BOSTON (AP) — Gov. Mitt Romney, moving closer to a presidential run, has hired Tom DeLay's former spokesman, according to a top Romney adviser who spoke on the condition of anonymity pending a formal announcement.
Kevin Madden, a New York state native who most recently served as press secretary for House Majority Leader John Boehner, will serve as primary spokesman for the presidential committee that Romney is expected to create within the next three weeks, the adviser said.

The governor is expected to file paperwork establishing some sort of presidential campaign committee by mid-December. Romney is planning to base his campaign in an office building in the city's North End.

Madden was chief spokesman for DeLay before the Texas congressman resigned last year after being indicted on charges of conspiracy in fundraising. He then shifted over to Boehner's office in February.

2. One of my many objections to Mitt Romney is that he doesn't see why this
hire suggests poor judgment.

"I take up the heroic torch of Ronald Reagan to restore the gleaming America of yesteryear, but for short-term purposes, I'm hiring a staff spokesman for one of the most egregious sleazeballs in the nation's history. Vote for me."
