Conservative Bloggers Cook Up Wacky Conspiracy Theory to Defend Romney's Corporate Raiding
The defense of Mitt Romneys career as a corporate raider is in full sway, and especially how hes a virtual lock for the nomination now, the usual conservative clowns are lining up like they always do in order to protect their cause. Case in point, the nimrods at Powerline (background on their years of stupidity) are asserting the following:
The Left is carrying out a coordinated attack on Mitt Romneys business career. One sees exactly the same allegations, often phrased identically, whether you look at the Daily Kos, the Associated Press, Slate or Think Progress, or listen to Newt Gingrich or Rick Perry.
Apparently Newt Gingrich, leader of the conservative revolution in the House and Rick Perry, George W. Bushs number two in Texas and a few months ago The Great Conservative Hope, are now part of a coordinated campaign between the left, the Associated Press and Slate (?) to take down Mitt Romney. It couldnt be that Romney has a spotty career in the private sector. It couldnt be that Romney has tried to disappear his time as governor and has put his career front and center. No. It has to be a conspiracy. .........(more)

A vast left wing conspiracy to get right wingers to nominate a closet Marxist leftist.
So they can clearly not choose the wine in front of me!

Democrats are simply exposing his record. No paranoia needed to explain why 50+MM people are openly discussing the qualifications of the predatory capitalist.

There were times when I wondered if it was really worth it.
Let's hope the cancervatives don't ever, ever find out that Newt is ONE OF US!1!!
OK, now, don't anybody go blow it. It's our little secret.
