Mitt Romney tried to dodge a question on embryonic stem-cell research, but Chris Matthews asked the tough questions. Again, Mitt flopped. Last night he said:
MODERATOR: And you won’t take any from these fertility clinics to use either?
ROMNEY: I’m happy to allow that to [...]

I was going to write on this but Deal Hudson beat me to it, and more articulately. Romney’s record:
As governor of Massachusetts, Romney ordered Catholic hospitals to administer emergency contraception to women who claim they had been raped.
Romney’s words last night:
I don’t say anything to Roman Catholic bishops. They can do whatever the heck [...]

Mitt Romney opened his mouth and inserted his foot again. However, it turns out that he was replacing Hillary Clinton’s words with his foot, so it may well be a trade up.
You see, back in 1998 he said that Hillary Clinton was "very much right" that "it takes a village:"
Hillary Clinton is very much right, [...]

I think that this press release just about says it all. No need to comment. Apparently this was triggered by the Romney campaign circulating statements comparing Sam Brownback and Mitt Romney’s record on abortion:
Mitt Romney’s Campaign Misleads Voters about Senator Brownback’s Position on Abortion
"Mitt Romney’s flip flops are enough to make John Kerry blush."
Alexandria, VA [...]

In the recent kerfuffle over the relationship between Mitt Romney’s universal health care plan and abortion, the Romney campaign issued a response in the "Myth vs. Fact" mode (although, I tend to think of them as "Mitt versus Reality"). At the end Romney said that he had a pro-life record, had defended the culture of [...]

The latest attack on Mitt Romney’s abortion conversion narrative involves his signature healthcare plan — which he now is distancing himself from. The question, raised by Red State and The Prowler and based on more information from Mass Resistance, is whether the healthcare plan expanded publicly funded abortion, which Romney was on record supporting in [...]

This can’t be smart. There goes Romney’s good media week. Romney launches an ad hominem attack against Brian Camecker, author of the the Mitt Romney Deception piece. Romney has been bleeding from that and an AP story about it.
In an attempt to undermine Camenker’s credibility, Romney’s campaign says:
Camenker Admits He Used To Be "A [...]

The YouTube video of Mitt Romney during a 1994 debate with Ted Kennedy shows him to be an eloquent defender of gay rights and abortion rights and dismissive of Ronald Reagan. Romney released a YouTube video of his own (per David All’s best practices) claiming that he had been wrong on some issues in the [...]

Evangelical for Mitt’s David French (whose wife and co-blogger lied to the press about funding people for the Southern Republican Leadership Conference) has written another apologetic on Mitt Romney’s record. In this case, a concerned Evangelical writes in and says that he read Mass Resistance’s "Romney Deception" piece and cannot abide by Romney’s record. So [...]

Jerry Zandstra, a member of Sam Brownback’s exploratory committee, sent the following letter to a (probably very) large number of Michigan conservative activists. Some excerpts and the whole letter:
Excerpts:
Mitt Romney, current governor of Massachusetts and likely presidential candidate has had a tough couple of weeks. It isn’t what others have said about [...]
