The Hypocrisy Files: “The Subtext Is That Romney Is A Huge Liar”
“Consider this quote from conservative pundit Fred Barnes, which is intended as a solid endorsement of Romney: ‘His plan was to run as a moderate but govern (I think) as a conservative. He’s abandoned the moderate mask and positioned himself firmly in the conservative camp.’ Barnes means this as a compliment, but the subtext is that Romney is a huge liar. Romney has been forced to reinvent his persona so many times that it has become impossible for almost anybody to buy into the idea that he is a consistent, principled figure.”
