Whoops! New Video Shows Romney Once Sprinted Madly From GOP Label
Uh, oh -- still more trouble for Mitt Romney. The Massachusetts Democratic Party has just released a thorough montage of video clips showing Mitt Romney repeatedly disavowing his ties to the GOP while running for Massuchetts governor in 2002.

GOP primary voters will like this one. A transcript of Romney's choicest quotes after the jump.



Romney:

I'm not convinced a state would be better off with all Republicans. As a matter of fact I've been in a state like that for the last three years. It's not a good thing.

I've been very clear I think with people all across the commonwealth that my "R" doesn't stand for "Republican" as much as it does "reform."

I'm not running for the Republican view or a continuation of Republican values. That's not what brings me to the race.

I lived in a state that had a one party state that was primarily Republican. I thought, "Won't that be nice". The answer is "no"

It's always a burden for someone to run with "R" for "Republican" after their name.

Surely I have many friends who are Republicans and who are Republican voters.

Here's the response from Romney spokesman Kevin Madden: "You know you're making great progress and you're doing things right as a good Republican when the wrong-way crowd in the Democratic Party starts attacking you."
