Romney Roadblock
January 7th, 2008 by Jon Taplin
I was in Boston over the weekend. It’s the TV market for New Hampshire. Its astonishing how many negative ads Romney is running against McCain accusing him of raising taxes and giving amnesty to illegal aliens. The commercials have a very phony “real people on the street” feel, like those ads you see in New York for people saying how much they loved a turkey Broadway show. This morning on the network morning shows, Romney has literally roadblocked the commercial breaks. He should have one of those bumper stickers on the back of his campaign bus; “I’m spending my children’s inheritance trashing John McCain.”
