Mitt Romney's Drudge Report Connection Pays Off

[Constitutional Paulicy]

Just discovered this article. It looks like were beating a dead horse with pimping negative Romney news to the Drudge Report.....

That the Drudge Report tilts favorably toward the Romney campaign is hardly a secret. When he was the anti-Romney candidate of choice, Newt Gingrich received the same type of negative coverage that Santorum faced in the lead-up to Michigan. Matt Rhoades, Romney's campaign manager, has close ties to the right-leaning web juggernaut, dating back to his days as an opposition research director of the Republican National Committee......."Matt Drudge has done more for Romney than Romney's super PAC in my estimation," said John Feehery, President of Quinn Gillespie Communications and a former House leadership aide.

Well, it looks like if this comes down to a two man race between Paul and Romney, we wont have a media ally in Drudge. As if there isn't already enough media bias against Dr. Paul.

mitt romney wants ron paul to be the ABR "last man standing" and matt drudge is a team player?

 

[Aratus]

did mitt offer him the press secretary job?

This isn't anything that Dr. Paul and his campaign hasn't had to face and overcome before. However, to me, this is a little more painful than the rest.

Agreed, when I first started to get involved with the Ron Paul movement i was discusted with the government bias, but became more pissed after realizing how the media is even more bias.

It's hard to make hay out of white bread Romney.. the guy isn't very controversial...

But I do like the rumors of a Romney/Paul alliance... we need some press, why not let them talk?

 

[Aratus]

does monsieur drudge have days where he hopes he's the next white house press secretary?

 

[Romulus]

Drudge has already scrubbed their site from the MO Caucus chaos.

I have a gut feeling, they are in the bag for the establishment, as they didn't post anything about the Geitner arrest either!

It just seems like a throw us some table scraps now and then to appease us.... I don't trust Drudge much, but we don't have many options.
