Is this guy. . .
. . .for rizzle? (H/T - Mark Hemingway @ The Corner).
While the Romney name does carry some weight in the Civil Rights movement, I'm not sure it's a great idea for Mitt to remind voters of the recent controversy over his remarks at having seen his father march with Martin Luther King. One could easily see where he might plausibly contend that he was speaking in the figurative sense. But, taken in context with all the other boasts he's made recently, as well as his 1978 statement that, "My father and I marched with Martin Luther King, Jr. through the streets of Detroit," it becomes more and more difficult to listen to him speak without thinking about John Kerry's "Christmas in Cambodia," a story broken by fellow Ldotter and McCain-backing blogger, Brainster.
